Founded in 2009, Neolith has risen to prominence as one of the globe’s foremost sintered stone brands, reshaping stone surfaces with a distinctive fusion of innovation and sustainability.

Crafted from 100 per cent natural materials, including clays, feldspar, minerals and oxides, Neolith’s sintered stone surfaces epitomise a decade-long journey of creating and refining state-of-the-art architectural solutions. What sets the brand apart is not just its unique design but a deep commitment to environmental responsibility at every stage of the product lifecycle.

By bonding slabs with heat instead of resin, Neolith achieves a remarkably eco-conscious composition, with up to 98 per cent recycled raw materials in some models.

Sustainability is not just a buzzword for Neolith; it’s a core principle woven into its design philosophy. By bonding slabs with heat instead of resin, Neolith achieves a remarkably eco-conscious composition, with up to 98 per cent recycled raw materials in some models. This dedication is one example of why the brand was named the first carbon-neutral company in its sector in 2019.

Neolith’s sustainability journey extends beyond recycled content. An incredibly impressive 100 per cent of the electricity used in the production process comes from self-consumption and from sources with a guarantee of origin. The industrial water consumed is recycled and the company recovers and recycles more than 96 per cent of the industrial waste it generates. Certifications such as GREENGUARD and the European Union’s CE further underscore Neolith’s commitment to environmental stewardship and indoor safety.

Neolith’s portfolio comprises six distinct collections – the New Classtone, Fusion, Iron, Colorfeel, Timber and Steel – each telling a unique design story.

Yet Neolith’s narrative extends beyond sustainability – it’s also a story of versatility. Its sintered stone surfaces go beyond traditional boundaries, finding application in kitchens, bathrooms, floors, outdoor areas, facades and even custom furniture. The lightweight yet robust nature of Neolith surfaces ensures they withstand heat, scratches, stains and UV radiation with ease. With a near-zero porosity, Neolith surfaces are not just beautiful but also hygienic and resistant to bacterial growth. Even exposure to fire or high temperatures doesn’t compromise the air quality, as Neolith products emit no toxic fumes.

These collections, available in various finishes, provide architects, interior designers and homeowners alike with an expansive palette of options that go beyond the constraints of natural stone and with superior technical properties.

As Neolith establishes direct operations in Australia, the impact of its sintered stone surfaces is set to reach new heights. Beyond being a world leader in the design and manufacture of sintered stone, Neolith embodies a philosophy that places innovation, design and environmental consciousness at the forefront. Neolith is not just creating surfaces – it’s crafting spaces where beauty, durability and sustainability seamlessly converge.
