USEFUL INFORMATION - TecLite - A Lightweight Alternative
         
         
 
TECLITE - A LIGHTWEIGHT ALTERNATIVE

TecLite is a new cast stone material


Haddonstone has launched a revolutionary new cast stone material called TecLite. Although TecLite closely resembles traditional cast stone and natural stone in appearance, the use of thin wall construction and GRC/GFRC technology means the component weight is reduced by approximately two thirds when compared with similar Haddonstone pieces.

    TecLite is a new cast stone material


TecLite is a cement based material containing drawn glass fibre (Glass Fibre Reinforced Concrete) which benefits from a high strength to weight ratio. TecLite is, therefore, ideal for retro-fit, timber-frame and new build projects where component weight is an issue.

TecLite products can be used in conjunction with standard Haddonstone architectural components as the colours are complementary. Consequently, users can incorporate both Haddonstone and TecLite components in the same project with absolute confidence. TecLite products can be used to achieve the same crisp detailing normally only associated with Haddonstone designs. For this reason, TecLite will initially be available in the same dimensions and designs as Haddonstone's standard architectural components.

Standard TecLite designs for interiors and exteriors include:

  • DOOR SURROUNDS
  • HALF COLUMNS AND PILASTERS
  • ENTABLATURES AND PEDIMENTS
  • COPINGS AND PARAPET COPINGS
  • PIER CAPS
  • STRING COURSES AND PLINTH COURSES
  • QUOINS AND BLOCKS
  • WINDOW SURROUNDS, CILLS, HEADS AND KEYSTONES
  • CUSTOM-MADE DESIGNS TO INDIVIDUAL SPECIFICATIONS

Products initially available in TecLite are indicated on this web site with the symbol.
