The word Neolith literally means “new stone.” But ask manufacturer The Size about this ultra compact, super slim material, and they’re likely to tell you it could also be called “new and improved stone.” Formed from natural raw materials and engineered to astounding degrees of durability, Neolith is having a profound impact on the North American surfacing industry. As one of the largest East Coast distributors of Neolith in the U.S., we’ve watched the demand for this innovative material grow over the past year, reflecting the success Neolith is experiencing overall in the North American surfacing industry.

So often, when we talk about natural stone and surfacing, we reference countertops. But we know that you have more on your design plate, so to speak, than bathrooms and kitchens. We pride ourselves on our ability to bring you the very latest products and style ideas. One of these products, in particular, is Neolith. And while Neolith does make an incredibly durable, functional, and attractive countertop material, what you may not know is that it’s useful for so much more.

This residential property located in the heart of the Eixample area of Barcelona, Spain serves as a shining example of how modern technology can produce timeless design. The floors in this 100-year-old Modernist style home were recently renovated with state-of-the-art Neolith ultra compact surfacing—a product that stands out not only for its design but also for its versatility, durability, and sustainability.

Still researching outdoor kitchens and living spaces? Afraid to pull the trigger on your project because you’re still just not sure which materials will stand up to the elements?

We’ve been touting the features of Neolith for some time now. For example, you know that the lightweight slabs are easy to transport and handle, and that it’s easy to clean. From its resistance to liquids, heat, fire, and abrasion to its hygienic, resin-free surface Neolith is one phenomenal new building material. But one other feature that places Neolith ahead of the curve is its ability to…well, curve!

Happy Earth Day! In honor of today’s environmentally-focused holiday, here are some ways that Neolith, the ultra-compact, high-performance surfacing material that’s great for kitchen and bath countertops, flooring, interior wall and cladding applications, helps environmentally-conscious builders, designers, and other home professionals feel good about the materials they use in their projects.

We love high-performing ultra compact Neolith surfacing. So we decided to attend the Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS) earlier this month in Las Vegas when manufacturer The Size introduced their new color collection, Classtone.
