Paleo
Paleo – decorative stone with irregular shapes and shades inspired by nature
Paleo is inspired by traditional rough stone masonry: pieces with irregular edges, shades of gray, beige, and brown that intertwine naturally, and an appearance that seems "naturally placed," as if the wall has always been there .
The colors are 100% customizable – each piece can be adapted to the project, from warmer, earthy shades to cool, modern grays.
- Ideal for facades, plinths, fences, and interior accent walls
- Irregular shapes, inspired by natural stone laid by hand
- Configurable shades to integrate into any type of architecture
Technical details – in short
Paleo is a reconstructed decorative stone, tested according to European standards, suitable for interior and exterior use.

Paleo element dimensions
The Paleo model is made up of large, medium, and small slabs to recreate natural stone masonry with an irregular but balanced visual rhythm.
| Element type | Length (average) | Width (average) | Thickness (average) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Large slabs | 434.8 mm | 172 mm | 47.8 mm |
| Medium slabs | 232.4 mm | 122.2 mm | 44 mm |
| Small slabs | 104.4 mm | 37.2 mm | 36.4 mm |
Water permeability & resistance
Water permeability (absorption):
Bond strength to substrate surfaces:
- Polystyrene EPS 80 (100 mm)*: 74.97 kN/m²
- AAC: 753.33 kN/m²
- Solid brick: 1064 kN/m²
Mechanical properties and durability:
- Mechanical resistance: 6.07 MPa
- Flexural strength**: 3.63 MPa
- Mass variations: 0.12%
- Variations in flexural strength: 33.97%
- Durability of flexural strength**: 59.8%
- Reaction to fire: A1 WT
* Adhesive (spackle mass) reinforced with 145 g/m² fiberglass mesh was applied over the 100 mm EPS 80 polystyrene.
** Flexural strength and durability were measured after 25 freeze-thaw cycles.
40-year warranty for the Paleo model
We take pride in all our products, so we offer a warranty of 40-year that covers the colors, shades, and integrity of the stones, provided they are installed correctly.
Paleo is designed to maintain its appearance and properties over time, even in difficult climatic conditions, so your wall will look just as good in decades to come.
* The complete terms and conditions of the warranty are available in the StoneArc technical area.Technical data
