What is natural stone cladding?

Natural stone cladding is a façade or feature-wall system where stone is applied as an external skin (or internal feature finish) for durability and character.

Key points

  • System thinking matters: choose a stone, thickness, and fixing method that suits the wall build-up.
  • Consider movement joints, corners/returns, and moisture management in detailing.
  • Specify consistency: controlled heights/pack formats improve installation rhythm and waste.
