Lightweight flexible stone for shopfitting and commercial fit-out. Wraps columns and arches, cuts with a knife, and installs on the night shift without a wet saw — so your storefront opens on schedule.
Opening a new store or refreshing an existing one is a schedule problem before it is a design problem. Four constraints eat the margin on almost every centre we supply into.
Your access window is 10pm to 6am, and centre management fines noise that carries past the hoarding. A wet saw ends the shift before the wall is up.
A boarded-up storefront earns nothing and looks tired to the foot traffic walking past it. Trade days, not material cost, are what the landlord is charging you for.
Real stone on a round column means templating, kerfing and a lot of breakage. Most crews price it as a risk line and pass the cost to you.
Stone dust migrating into centre ducting is a compliance issue. Add crane lifts for high-floor tenancies and the logistics line doubles.
In a live mall programme, labour and lost trading days are usually the largest line items in a fit-out budget — the material itself is the smaller number.
JMS flexible stone is a 2–8 mm mineral veneer on a reinforced mesh backing, made from natural stone powder. It bends, it cuts with a utility knife, and it bonds over the substrate your fitout crew is already working on. The range runs from a 2 mm translucent stone for backlit display cabinets and feature walls up to an 8 mm textured grade, so a feature wall, column set or cash wrap can typically be turned around inside a single night shift.
Wraps columns, arches and radius cash wraps down to a 100–150 mm radius, cold or with light heat assistance. No templating, no kerfing, no breakage allowance.
Measure, score, snap, adhere, trim. No wet saw means no noise complaint, no silica dust in the ducting, and no fine from centre management.
A fraction of the dead load of natural stone, so a whole store’s material moves through a standard centre lift or a van. No crane hire, no hoarding breach.
Bonds to MDF, plywood and laminate board, so counters, display units, gondola ends and headboards can be faced in the same material as the walls.
Before your material gets past the landlord’s technical review it has to clear fire, weight, dust and access. Here is where flexible stone sits on each.
ASTM E84 Class A, supplied with the test documentation for your submission. Certificates issued per product line for your mall submittal.
2–8 mm thick and a fraction of the dead load of natural stone once installed. Safe on existing tenancy partitions, plasterboard and fixture carcasses without additional blocking.
Knife-cut on site means no silica dust reaching centre ducting, and no crane. Material moves through a standard service lift to high-floor tenancies.
Cold-bends to a 100–150 mm radius on flat-grain sheets, tighter with light heat. Continuous sheets finish arches and radius cash wraps without mitre joints, and single-batch colour keeps store one matching store fourteen.
The texture sells the brand. These are the four finishes retail clients specify most, and what each one is doing for the customer journey.
Deep veining and honed travertine for fashion, jewellery and watch brands. Reads as solid stone at close range, which is exactly where a customer stands.

Ripple, split-face and mosaic depths behind counters and photo moments. Designed to catch signage lighting, so the brand wall works after dark too.

Timber-look and warm stone surfaces that survive grease, condensation and daily washing — the zones where painted plasterboard fails first.
Get the Finish GuideConcept renders, elevations or a landlord access guide is enough. We confirm which zones need curves, which need trims, and what the centre will demand on fire.
Curved samples, corner profiles and the fire certificates your mall approval file needs — so the sign-off happens before you bid, not after.
We return a numbered panel schedule mapped to your elevations, with trim, external and internal corner profiles included, so nothing is cut on site under time pressure.
Crates are sized for a service lift and a tenancy hoarding, labelled by zone. Multi-store rollouts ship store by store against your opening calendar.
Score, adhere, trim. A crew can start at 10pm and, on a typical unit, hand the floor back before trading hours, with no dust remediation and no HVAC clean-down.
We supply shopfitters and fit-out contractors across Australia, the UK, the UAE and North America — teams that need repeatable colour, flat-pack logistics and a supplier who reads a landlord access permit.
Our plant in Wuxi, Jiangsu runs 3D inkjet printing lines rated at 700+ sqm per machine per day, producing to a retained batch reference for repeat store rollouts.
An in-house development team refreshes patterns weekly, and with over a hundred proprietary moulds on site repeat store rollouts draw from the same tooling for consistent colour.
Custom 3D-printed graphics and Pantone brand colours available for signature walls, from the same production line.
Logistics built around flat-pack density — thin, light sheets crate tightly, so a single shipment carries a large faced area for your rollout.
Hypothetical scenarios showing where flexible stone typically earns its place on a retail job.
Brief: Where the brief calls for a split-face feature wall across a fashion unit while the centre stays open all week.
Approach: The knife-only install cuts the wet-trade steps out of the schedule, so there is no duct clean-down and no noise complaint to escalate to centre management.
Brief: Where the brief calls for a street storefront rebrand and the hoarding has to come down before a campaign.
Approach: Continuous sheets let a fitout crew face the frontage and internal columns without templating each return, so the programme tracks to the campaign date rather than the stone delivery.
Brief: Where the brief calls for a multi-level tenancy, no crane, and materials up a service lift only.
Approach: A fraction of the dead load of natural stone means a whole order travels in a van and can be faced floor by floor against your access windows, rather than the other way around.
Not just a catalogue. It is a working document: panel schedules by store zone, column and corner details, trim profiles, ASTM E84 Class A documentation by market, cut-list templates and a take-off worksheet you can price straight off the landlord drawings.
Send your drawings and the landlord access rules, and we’ll return the spec pack with current trade pricing and lead times for your region.
Most retail programmes we quote combine flexible stone for feature surfaces with WPC slat for ceilings, soffits and back-of-house.
Bendable 2–8 mm stone — including a 2 mm translucent grade for backlit cabinets and a feature wall — in travertine, slate, brick and concrete. The core surface for columns, feature walls and fixtures.

See Housing FacadesWhat we get asked in the pre-tender call, before anyone looks at price.
Yes. Flexible stone bends cold around columns down to a 100–150 mm radius on flat-grain sheets, and light heat assistance takes it tighter. Because the sheet is continuous, a round column finishes without vertical mitre joints, which is where tiled and stone-clad columns usually fail visually.
Yes. Flexible stone bonds to MDF, plywood, laminate board and plasterboard with standard contact or polymer adhesive, so cash wraps, gondola ends, headboards and display units can be faced in the same material as the walls. For fixture work we recommend a thin grade in the 2 mm range to keep edge profiles tight.
Yes. The surface is tested to ASTM E84 Class A, and we supply the ASTM E84 test documentation with the sample pack so you can put it into the landlord submittal before you bid rather than after being queried.
Flexible stone is designed to be installed over the existing substrate, so a unit can stay out of service only for the days it is actually being worked. Because there is no curing time, the surface can be traded over the following morning. On multi-store rollouts we plan the delivery sequence around the access windows rather than the material lead time.
Yes. Panels are scored and snapped with a utility knife and fixed with adhesive, so the noise profile is similar to carpentry. There is no wet saw, no impact drilling on the finished face and no silica dust to trigger a centre compliance issue.
MOQ is 300 sqm for standard ranges and 500 sqm for customised work, and we welcome small trial orders. Samples reach most markets in 5–7 days and first-run production is 15–20 working days. We ship DDP, CIF or FOB and crate by zone so a small tenancy storage area can hold the whole order.
Send the store drawings and the landlord access rules. We’ll return a panel schedule, a per-store cost, and a Shopfitter Sample Pack with curved samples, corner profiles and the fire certificates your mall approval file needs.
