ORSOL has developed NÉOMINÉRAL® , an innovative material that offers a low-carbon alternative to natural stone.

An environmentally-friendly approach

A French company actively committed to an environmentally-friendly approach, ORSOL invests every year in research to improve the quality and aesthetics of its products, while making the reduction of its carbon footprint a priority.

With this in mind, ORSOL has developed NÉOMINÉRAL® , an innovative material that offers a low-carbon alternative to natural stone.

Stones and foam with ORSOL neomineral logo

Made exclusively from high-quality mineral aggregates, NEOMINERAL® is manufactured and cold-aggregated using a pozzolanic process. By combining this ancient technique with more recent technologies, the ORSOL laboratory has succeeded in producing a material that is both technical and low-carbon.

Its intrinsic qualities enable it to create facings that are faithful to the aesthetic characteristics of stone. With an installation system validated by the Centre Scientifique et Technique du Bâtiment, the facings are compatible with most substrates, while meeting the safety and performance requirements expected in the construction industry.
