About GEOLUXE

GEOLUXE Pyrolithic Stone is designed and created for multiple uses. The material is extremely versatility and durable. Why is GEOLUXE getting more popular? Does Pyrolithic Stone fabrication require special knowledge or tooling? How is GEOLUXE cared for? We will answer all those questions in this article.

GEOLUXE Pyrolithic Stone Surfaces

GEOLUXE is a surface that has been designed for use in a variety of architectural applications. It is also available in a wide range of colors.

GEOLUXE Color Selection

GEOLUXE Pyrolithic Stone surfaces are available in a number colors. No matter what design style your project is using, there is a color that coordinates with it. The following is a list of the colors available in GEOLUXE:

  • Bluette
  • Nestos Royal
  • Artemis
  • Aliveri
  • Erebus
  • Eramo
  • Aeolus
  • Palissandro
  • Dionysos
  • Nestos Gray

To understand what GEOLUXE is we need to understand how it is created. GEOLUXE surfaces are produced using a proprietary technology. This unique technology changes raw materials into a an extremely hard mass of stone-like material. The material can then be used in architecture and interior design projects. The technology used for creating GEOLUXE Pyrolithic Stone is a special method for producing sintered materials. GEOLUXE Pyrolithic Stone Surfaces are very intriguing to those that have not yet heard about Pyrolithic Stone. Why is the the case?

One reason people are interested in GEOLUXE is because it is not a natural stone and it is not an engineered surface. Some even go as far to say that is is the best of all worlds. Notice this quote taken from the GEOLUXE website:

By virtue of its remarkable beauty and superior properties, GEOLUXE® is an ideal choice for surface material fit for various applications that can elevate the everyday of your life.

You might be wondering how GEOLUXE compares with natural stone surfaces. Natural stone offers some benefits that other materials do not offer. One example is heat resistance and scratch resistance. Of course, materials vary on how scratch resistant they are if they are taken from nature. GEOLUXE on the other hand is produced in a controlled manner. Additionally, it is created to be extremely scratch resistant; using intense heat and pressure. The result is an extremely hard material that is not easily scratched.

Benefits of GEOLUXE

GEOLUXE surfaces are becoming more and more popular because of the advantages they offer. All you have to do is compare this material with other materials to find out if it offers what you would consider to be advantages. Of course, no material is the best for every person in all situations. Yet, here are some things that attract newcomers to the GEOLUXE Pyrolithic Stone:

  • Extremely Versatile
  • Very Durable
  • Highly Stain Resistant
  • Adapts to Temperature Change

Versatility

Let's briefly summarize each of those benefits. Like natural stone, GEOLUXE is very versatile. In fact, it is used for all sorts of surfaces including:

  • Countertops
  • Flooring
  • Vertical Surfaces

Durability

You are no doubt aware that many surfaces are susceptible to scratching. Everyday use for some surfaces can result in the surface becoming dull or hazey. GEOLUXE is very resistant to scratching. This scratch resistance contributes to the durability of GEOLUXE

Resistant to Stains

GEOLUXE is non-porous and is highly stain resistant. Its non-porous surface means liquids stay on the surface and do not penetrate the material. Although substances can dry on GEOLUXE surfaces, they can be removed rather easily by using the appropriate cleaner. Various cleaners are made for counteracting specific types of stain-causing substances. A list of chemicals and/or cleaners that can be used to neutralize stains on the surface of GEOLUXE is available on the company's website.

Fabricating GEOLUXE Pyrolithic Stone Surfaces

Fabricators of natural stone surfaces and other engineered materials have many of the machines that are needed to fabricate GEOLUXE surfaces. However, there are some specific practices and some special kinds of tools that will make fabricating GEOLUXE much more efficient. Let's briefly discuss a couple of these points.

Diamond Blades for GEOLUXE

One of the major tools that a fabricator will need to begin working with GEOLUXE is a blade made for cutting GEOLUXE. GEOLUXE blades are made using special specifications so that they cut very hard materials. They also need to cut quickly and cleanly so they do not slow progress or hurt the finish of the surface.

Even though the proper blade is used, it still must be used properly in order to be effective. GEOLUXE has, no doubt, published best practices to assist fabricators with adjusting to working with this material.

GEOLUXE Care & Maintenance

As mentioned earlier, GEOLUXE surfaces are very stain resistant and can be cleaned using a variety of cleaners. Each cleaner that can be used for a specific type of stain or discoloration can be matched up to the substance on the surface. Some types of cleaners that an be used on GEOLUXE include acids, alkaline cleaners, solvents, and oxidants. All of these cleaner types are acceptable for use on GEOLUXE Each attacks a different type of stain.

It is easy to see why GEOLUXE is so noticeable as an option for a variety of applications. If you haven't heard about the GEOLUXE Pyrolithic Stone material, why not check it out?
