ARTIFICIAL STONE FOR YOUR INTERIOR
Material that inspires
Mākslīgā Akmens Darbnīca began operations in 2006 and specializes in working with artificial stone—such as Corian, Hi-Macs, and Staron—creating custom-made products tailored to individual orders.
Our clients choose artificial stone to bring their boldest ideas to life, as few materials match its versatility and design potential.
It can be seamlessly combined with wood, ceramics, glass, natural stone, or stainless steel to create truly unique interior solutions.
Artificial stone continues to evolve and inspire. Architects and designers choose it for a wide range of applications—from the medical and food industries to hotels, business centers, schools, and, of course, private residences.
What is artificial stone?
Artificial stone is a composite material: a homogeneous, solid material without pores, consisting of ± 1/3 acrylic resin and ± 2/3 natural minerals.
Artificial stone is widely used in public buildings due to its versatility, durability and aesthetic qualities. Here are some examples of where artificial stone is often used:
In the interior and exterior of public buildings:
-
Vestibules, foyers, stairwells – artificial stone creates an elegant impression and is easy to maintain.
-
Decorative stone that imitates natural materials (granite, marble, etc.) is used to decorate walls and columns.
-
Floor coverings – especially in public buildings with intensive traffic, where wear resistance is required.
-
Exterior facades – weather resistant, available in various textures and colors.
In cafes, restaurants, hotels:
-
Counters, bar tops, tables – artificial stone is hygienic and easy to clean.
-
Kitchens and bathrooms – resistant to moisture, stains and chemicals.
In hospitals, clinics, nursing homes:
-
Operating rooms and laboratories – choose antibacterial types of artificial stone (for example, Corian®).
-
Sinks and work surfaces – bonded joints, easy disinfection.
In educational institutions:
-
Toilets and common areas – the material is durable and economical in the long term.
-
Teachers' rooms, kitchen areas, waiting rooms – resistant to intensive use.
