Split Face Fireplace





In the world of architecture and design, building materials always arise into question. Whether that be from the supplier, manufacturer, or shipping company, building materials are the foundation of any project. When planning a project or design, questions seem to raise awareness surrounding floor decks, unique structures, pool decks, and/or wall veneers. However, this past year of 2019 Coral Stone USA has seen an increase in demand for our natural gold split face paver. 


The split face can be used in many different scenarios. For instance, custom stone fireplace cut by our C&C machine can be designed using split face to add texture to a fireplace and wall. Furthermore, the texture that is visibly depicted throughout the pieces of stone are second to none. Using split face to add life, and movement to a wall can be a subtle yet inspirational design. 
The features of the split face are that it is water-resistant and mildew resistant, if applied with the recommended sealer. When applied properly natural coral stone can depict a tropical vibe and feeling inside any home or office. 
All in all, natural coral stone in the form of split face can be very beneficial and unique on any design ranging from a fireplace, wall veneer, or building structure.

Beige Coral Stone




Outdoor décor and design are widely regarded as a mixture of client satisfaction and trends that are current or upcoming. This mixture is balanced by the designer and their clients. At Coral Stone USA we are increasingly noticing the purchase of beige coral stone over white coral stone due to its potential to bring out its surroundings. For instance, a prospective client requested pictures of beige and white coral stone. When our customer service department requested information from the client. He mentioned he appreciated how the beige brought out the palm trees that surrounded his property. On a sunny day, the way light reflects off beige color pieces is unique to that color. Here at Coral Stone USA we have pointed out the difference in regard to how the light reflects off the piece and onto the outer décor whether that be beautiful, green palm trees or a sky-blue infinity pool.


The difference between beige coral stone or white coral stone, for some, its minuscule, however, for those who enjoy art beige brings out colors surrounding the stone. Beige coral stone is not only beneficial for this purpose, but it also keeps the traits that Dominican Coral stone is known for: nonslip surface when wet, maintains a cool temperature, and it gives the tropical vibe wherever it is placed.

Coral Stone USA


Today there is a wide selection of material to choose from when it comes to building projects. There are many different materials to choose from; of course, the task the material is going to do, also comes into consideration. When it comes to pool decks and areas of leisure and relaxation,


Coral Stone USA is here to help you make a choice.  Throughout the past couple of years, new building projects are relying on natural Coral Stone for their pool and sunbathing areas. There are several reasons as to why we see this change in the architecture industry. To begin, natural coral stone absorbs heat, and for any parent with their child at the pool the last thing that should be on a parents mind is whether their child will burn their feet because it is too hot. In climates with tropical whether such as South Florida, temperatures can reach up to 90 degrees Fahrenheit, and sometimes heat the ground to incredible temperatures. Furthermore, natural coral stone is also used due to its ability to keep its grip when wet. In turn, natural coral stone has pores (varying in size,small-medium) which allow one to maintain a firm step when moist and wet.  Finally, not to mention the elegant beauty of a pool surrounded by a natural and picturesque flooring design. The inexplicable patterns portrayed in every stone is unique to itself.

City Parks




City parks across South Florida are using Coral Stone benches and flooring because of its beauty and non-slip characteristics. The reason as to why this is so important in the world of architecture and natural stone is because the features of Dominican coral stone, allow for more safety throughout the park.


For example, in tropical areas where rainfall is frequent, the stone naturally ensures a non-slippery surface to walk on. This ensures the safety of the consumers in the park. The beauty itself is recommended to be seen in person. The breathtaking patterns, and natural glow of the Coral stone is unique to every slab used. Some of the parks that are using natural Dominican coral stone are: Doral Veterans Park and Pompano Beach. Both of these locations are located in South Florida. The tropical weather and frequent rainfall, are some of the factors as to why the city have chosen our stone. In Pompano, these stones make perfect sense due to their location, which is along the coastline and on the sidewalks for pedestrians. The benches in Pompano are used to target pedestrians walking along the coast, meanwhile the benches produced for Doral Veterans Park are used for pedestrians walking with their children or friends. The fact that the benches can serve the same purpose in different scenery, shows the broad spectrum of the use of natural Dominican Coral Stone. It can be used in naturally sandy and moist areas, while also being useful in regular parks surrounded by vegetation. One of the features of the Dominican stone is its natural ability to defend itself against mildew and mold. This could be very useful in areas like Doral Veterans Park which is an area that is mostly green.

Filled & Honed Coral Stone Veneer


There are ample reasons as to why using benefits filled and honed coral stone. Apart from the fact that it is simply beautiful, because of the vertical installation it causes the percentage of water that is absorbed into the stone to drop significantly. Due to this, the stone is much easier to maintain.

 The natural, clean look of the stone remains intact because of the low water absorption. Furthermore, the stone itself prevents mildew along its face. Therefore, if you are someone who appreciates an elegant, clean look then this is an option to consider. When it comes to filled and honed, there are a wide variety of options. To explain, ‘filled and honed’ is a finish on the natural stone of choice. For example, the natural coral stone in gold color would then be processed and finished with the filled and honed. 

 The filled and honed process is simply clean, fill in the pores of the stone, sand, and polish. The polish portion is not to make the stone shiny, however, a detail of the natural stone itself. To conclude, the natural beauty of Dominican coral stone combined with the filled and honed finish is one to consider with other exterior wall veneer options on the market. The low water absorption feature, alongside reduced mildew are avoidable headaches that any homeowner keeps in mind.

Non-Slip Pool Decks




The expansion of Dominican coral stone is quickly spreading to unorthodox installations. However, these out of normality installations and applications are only proving to consumers that anything is possible with coral stone. Recently, another development in the Caribbean, used Coral Stone around areas that had high traffic and was around water. They decided to use this in these locations because the coral stone allowed for the customers to walk freely, without the fear of slipping and injuring themselves. This is one of the traits of coral stone, which is that it maintains a non-slip surface when wet. With this in mind, the hotels chose this material because it reduces liability possibilities with customers walking in and out of wet surfaces. Furthermore, many hotels are now using  Coral Stone for pool decks because it is less of a safety hazard for consumers, and for the hotels. Having a material that is heat-resistant, and safe for people to walk on, while its wet is critical for tropical environments. Coral Stone provides a beautiful scenery, all while providing an extra layer of safety to all consumers.

Wall Veneer


Coral Stone Wall veneers have been around for quite some time, however, recently in the home design industry there has been an increasing demand.

The beauty behind a product that comes from mother nature is unique to Dominican coral stone. The irreplaceable patterns and textures that are shown in the pictures above are particular to every single tile. For example, in the picture above, the coral tile that are used are 18x18 and they give a great contrast to the building itself, allowing the building to come alive and unique from those around it. Moving on, the stone used in the picture is mined and exported out of the Dominican Republic.

Whether that be for an indoor or outdoor wall veneer, coral stone can be used in a variety of climate, and will create a tropical vibe to its surroundings.

Here at Coral Stone USA we recommend a sealant to preserve the stone against uncontrollable variables. This will protect the stone from mold, and lichens which is inevitable in tropical/wet climates. All in all, natural Dominican coral stone has a variety of uses but in this specific case of wall veneers it is an excellent, elegant, tropical choice when designing your home, building, or project.
