Slabs mechanical reinforcement before finishing.

Fiberglass mesh reinforcement is a technical treatment applied to fragile slabs or structurally delicate slabs with structural defects, which are often characterised by prominent veining or natural imperfections.

It involves applying an Italian-made fibreglass mesh to the back of the slab to increase its mechanical strength and protect it during subsequent processing or installation stages.

A combined treatment for a stronger and more stable slab

  • Fiberglass mesh reinforcement is often combined with resin coating treatment on particularly challenging materials, providing comprehensive and efficient reinforcement.
  • Big Graniti uses selected Italian materials, such as reinforced mats and special fibreglass mesh, to produce high-quality finishes.

Technical advantages of fiberglass mesh reinforcement on quartzite, granite and hard marble slabs

  • 1
    Increases the slab mechanical strength, thereby reducing the risk of breakage during handling and processing.
  • 2
    Optimise the cutting and installation of delicate or thin materials.
  • 3
    It preserves the structural integrity of hard marbles, granites and quartzites with pronounced veining or inherent instability.
  • 4
    It guarantees high resistance even on thin or difficult surfaces.
  • 5
    Protects the slab from impacts and mechanical stress.
  • 6
    It ensures reliable performance on structurally complex natural stone.

Back structural reinforcement to increase resistance.

Application of fibreglass mesh to the back of the slab to increase its resistance and protect it from breakage or stress. The mesh is often integrated with the resin coating for maximum effectiveness.

Resin treatment

Improved mechanical resistance and aesthetic consistency.

Treatment based on epoxy resins, applied to the entire slab to fill pores and micro-cracks. It improves mechanical resistance and aesthetic uniformity. Suitable for delicate or decorative materials.

Reconstruction and reassembly

Process for restoring damaged material.

Manual restoration carried out to restore missing or damaged sections, using original fragments and traditional craftsmanship. Ideal for enhancing slabs with localised defects.
