Purple Gemstone Slab is a premium semi-precious stone widely admired for its vibrant purple tones, durability, and luxurious appeal. Ideal for countertops, wall cladding, flooring, and decorative accents, this slab combines natural beauty with exceptional strength. However, selecting the right thickness is essential to ensure long-term durability, impact resistance, and performance under different conditions.

Stone Thickness Considerations: Performance, Durability, and Impact Resistance

1. Granite Thickness in Major Renovations

Example: Tiananmen Square Renovation (Beijing)

• Granite Thickness: 100mm slabs were used during the renovation.
• Reason: The square experiences extremely high foot traffic and heavy vehicles. The thicker granite ensures higher bearing capacity and prevents damage under heavy loads.

2. Performance of Stone in High-Stress Environments

Lugou Bridge Example:

• Despite centuries of pressure from horseshoes, deep surface holes, and constant wear, the stone deck remains intact.
• This demonstrates the incredible durability and load-bearing capacity of thicker natural stone.

3. Weak Impact Resistance in Thin Stone Slabs

Impact Resistance:

• Thicker slabs offer stronger impact resistance.
• Thin slabs are more vulnerable to cracks, chips, or breakage when exposed to external forces.

4. Deformation and Warping of Thin Stone Slabs

Problem with Thin Artificial Granite Slabs:

• Thin slabs, especially at 16.5mm thickness, often deform or warp, particularly in large, long, and narrow designs.
• This occurs because of reduced flexural strength, which compromises durability.

Solution:

• For artificial granite flooring, 20mm thickness is recommended.
• This ensures structural strength, prevents deformation, and enhances long-term performance.
• Many reliable manufacturers use 20mm thickness as a standard to maintain quality.

5. Conclusion: Importance of Proper Thickness for Durability

✅ Thicker slabs provide better durability, bearing capacity, and impact resistance.
✅ Thin slabs, though cost-effective, are prone to warping and structural failure.
✅ Recommended thickness for Purple Gemstone Slab flooring and heavy-use areas is 20mm.
