DURA-Lite™ Translucent Glass-Backed Stone Panels
Beginning Your Custom Stone Selection
DURA-Lite™ is a highly specialized product that is custom produced for each application through a combination of your preferences and our expertise.
DURA-Lite™ can be fabricated with nearly any type of stone - onyx, alabaster, granite, marble, limestone, travertine, sandstone and dolomites. We do not have standard lines, allowing us to work closely with our design clients to source a stone that meets aesthetic and technical needs. This results in a truly unique surface piece that is often equated to artwork.
Variables that affect stone selection include:
- Desired colors and veining characteristics
- Overall volume of project (some slabs are only available in very small quantities)
- Panel sizes
- Desired levels of translucency
GPI president and director Thomas Lawrence discusses the inherent variances in natural stone and onyx and how to navigate the specification process.
To begin the stone selection process, contact GPI with general color and veining preferences (use the “Getting Started” packet below). We will consult our image library of slabs to pull applicable stones and begin to narrow the selection.
