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 cement based material containing
drawn glass fiber (Glass Fiber 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
colors 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.
