Are you thinking aboutcladding an interior wall, a facade, or an outdoor space with stone siding? One of the first questions that naturally comes to mind is the budget. The cost of the material, installation expenses, and necessary products… this article provides a clear and honest overview of what a high-end ORSOL Neomineral stone cladding project entails.
What is the ORSOL Neomineral stone?
Before we talk about price, here’s an important point: Neomineral stone is not natural stone. It is a cladding material manufactured in France’s Southwest region that faithfully replicates the appearance and texture of stone, while offering technical advantages that raw stone cannot always guarantee: lightness, uniformity, ease of installation, and a low carbon footprint.
This is a carefully considered choice for projects where aesthetics and durability are non-negotiable: ventilated facades, distinctive interior walls, communal spaces, hotels, high-end residences, and historic renovations.
What is the price per square meter of ORSOL siding?
The price of ORSOL Neomineral stone wall cladding ranges from 50 to 100 € (including tax) per m², depending on the collection chosen.
What causes the price to vary?
Several factors influence the final cost of a siding project:
- The type and format of the cladding: cladding types with or without joints
- The area to be covered
- The complexity of the project—including angles , cutouts, irregular surfaces, and ventilated facades—requires more material and more installation time.
- The installation method— adhesive installation or ventilated facade, interior or exterior—affects the technical requirements and influences the overall cost of the project.
For these reasons, a customized quote remains essential for accurately estimating the cost of your project.
Installation materials: Don’t overlook them in your budget
In addition to the cost of the cladding, you’ll need to factor in the products required for installation. ORSOL offers a range of products specifically designed to facilitate the installation of its cladding:
- Mortars and tile adhesives: formulated to ensure optimal adhesion depending on the substrate and application (interior, exterior, ventilated facade).
- Grout: Available in colors that match the facing materials for a uniform and polished finish.
- Finishing and protective products: water-repellent treatments and surface treatments designed to preserve the material over time, particularly when used outdoors.
We strongly recommend using ORSOL application products: they are specifically designed to work with our coatings and ensure long-lasting results. Your dealer can advise you on the quantities needed based on your project.
Installation: Technical data sheets and tutorials are available
The cost of the siding and installation materials accounts for only a portion of the total budget. You must also factor in the cost of installation, which depends on the contractor you choose, the region, and the complexity of the project.
To make the job easier for installers and to help homeowners who want to install the system themselves, ORSOL offers:
- Detailed technical data sheets : product specifications, technical characteristics, media compatibility, installation recommendations according to the configuration.
- Installation tutorials : step-by-step guides for the main configurations (glued installation indoors, ventilated facade, external corner…), available on our Youtube channel .
- Technical support: Our team is always available to answer technical questions from both professionals and individuals.
The ORSOL Neomineral stone is designed to make installers’ jobs easier: the material is lightweight, the sizes are precise, and it is compatible with standard installation techniques.
Investing in High-End Siding: Why It Makes All the Difference
Wall cladding is not a choice you make every five years. That’s why it’s worth investing in a material that will stand the test of time, won’t fade, won’t crack at the first sign of bad weather, and will retain its aesthetic appeal year after year.
When considered over the material’s lifespan, the actual cost per square meter is often much lower than it appears at the time of purchase. Not to mention the added value that high-quality siding brings to a property.
Start with a sample: the best decision before buying
Before any cost estimate or quote, there’s one step we always recommend: ordering a sample. In our line of work, you have to see the material in person. A photo doesn’t do the texture justice. A screen can’t capture the nuances of a color in natural light.
Our samples allow you to:
- Test how a color looks in your actual space, under your lighting
- Appreciate the build quality and level of finish
- Compare several options before making a decision
- Show the material to your architect, project manager, or installer to confirm its technical feasibility
