What is a precious environmental-friendly building material?

Lava Stone(Volcanic Rock) also known as extrusive rock, is a type of magmatic rock (igneous rock).

As a new type of functional environmental-friendly material, lava stone is a very precious building material.Lava stone is mainly divided into two categories: slabs and cut-to-sizes. Colors are gray-black and dark red.

From the pics,you will know the biggest character of lava stone is the hole. According to the characteristics of the hole and color of the volcanic stone, it can be divided into five types: millimeter-porous volcanic stone, small-porous volcanic stone, medium-porous volcanic stone, coarse-pored volcanic stone, and red volcanic stone.

Microporous volcanic stone: This type of hole is small, generally needle-like, and evenly distributed, and its color is generally gray. It is often called "millipore ash" in the market.

Small-pore volcanic stone: This type of volcanic stone is very porous in shape, with holes ranging from the size of a sesame grain to the size of a rice grain, and the holes are relatively uniform.

Mesoporous volcanic stone: This type of volcanic stone has medium-sized pores. Honeycomb. It has a unique artistic decorative effect, especially for the decoration of certain cultural landscapes.

Coarse-porous volcanic stone: This type of volcanic stone has large pores and uneven distribution. Also used for special decoration.

Red volcanic stone: This type of volcanic stone is formed by the condensation of the last remaining magma at the end of a volcanic eruption. It is generally dark red or ten-red, with low density and light weight, and can even float on water, so it is also called "pumice stone".

What are the characteristics of lava stone?

1. Strong decorative

The volcanic stone is simple and natural, beautiful and fashionable, and has great ornamental value. At the same time, it can also be perfectly combined with other types of stone to achieve the artistic effect that complements each other.

2. Wear-resistant and anti-corrosion

It has excellent wear and corrosion resistance, light weight and long life compared with metal. And the elasticity and toughness of volcanic rock are much higher than that of steel, the strength is higher than that of light metal alloys, and the corrosion resistance is higher than that of glass.

3. Adjustable climate

The natural pores of volcanic rock make it have a unique "breathing" function, which can adjust the air humidity and improve the ecological environment.

4. Thermal insulation

Because the original stone of the volcanic stone material is formed by the condensation of volcanic lava, it has obvious light absorption and heat resistance function for the environment of absolute high temperature.

5. Sound absorption and noise reduction

The vlava stone has unique natural holes, which are beneficial to the auditory environment. It is the only natural material with sound-absorbing function among all building materials at present.

6. Water absorbing and non-slip

The natural and unique pores of volcanic rock make it have the characteristics of foam material, water absorption and non-slip.

7. Wide application

Lava stone is widely used, not only in architecture, interior decoration, landscape roads, etc., but also in industrial design fields such as furniture design and other product design.

What is the available sizes of lava stone?

Regular sizes of tiles: 300mm×300mm, 600mm×300mm, 600mm×600mm, 800mm×800mm. (length × width)

Slabs: 150mm, 300mm, 600mm wide x free length.

Large slab: 2400mm×1200mm (length×width) is the smallest, and the size can be customized according to different requirements.

thickness: 20mm, 30mm, 40mm.

What is the price level of lava stone material?

Lava Stone (Volcanic stone) are mainly affected by factors such as origin, variety, specification, texture and so on. Taking the fine-cut size tiles 600mm×300mm×20mm as an example, the average market price is $35-45/square meter.

What is the application of lava stone?

Application:Exterior-interior wall cladding,flooring tiles,landscape paving,garden pavers,and home furnitre.

Lava Stone is widely used in restaurant,bathroom wall and floor,bathroom vanity,coffee bar,tea house and massage centre.For more application,check our project page to see more.
