With a matt finish to add visual appeal, the surface of these stylish baths is non porous, hygienic and endowed with great insulation properties to provide a truly indulgent bathing experience.

Creation


1.Grading Raw Materials:
The raw material used in the construction of a StoneKAST bath is Limestone, the first process is to remove any unwanted impurities from the Limestone. Using a fine mesh and extremely powerful magnets the impurities are removed, leaving behind the very highest grade of Limestone ready for use.

2.Mixing
The limestone is then blended with a high grade resin compound. The mixture is then subjected to a high vacuum environment which removes any unwanted air bubbles.

3.Catalyst/Casting
A catalyst is added to the mixture to begin the hardening process. The mixture is then poured into a closed mould and allowed to cure in a temperature controlled environment. The top half of the mould is then removed mechanically and the bath is now in what we call a “Green state” ready for post curing.

4.Post Curing
The bath in its “green State” is then hung by the rim and will pass through a tunnel oven for 3 hours which will then fully harden the mixture. The bottom half of the mould is still attached at this point to eliminate any twisting or warping in this process.

5.Waste and Overflow
The bath is removed from the mould and the waste and overflow can now be drilled using diamond tipped hole saws.

6.QA Procedures
The surface is then inspected for defects and the bath tested to ensure correct thickness throughout.

7.Polishing
Following QA inspection and prior to packing each bath is cleaned and polished to an extremely high standard. After one final check the bath is now ready to be securely packaged and shipped to its new owner.
