Principles of classical architectural style as known since millennia and modernized by state of the art machineries and equipments.

  1. Symmetry: Buildings are often symmetrical, with balanced proportions and components.

  2. Columns: Classical buildings often feature columns, typically with distinct orders such as Doric, Ionic, or Corinthian, each with its own proportions and decorative elements.

  3. Entablature: The upper part of a column, consisting of the architrave, frieze, and cornice.

  4. Pediments: Triangular gable-like structures often found above entrances, supported by columns.

  5. Tripartite Division: Buildings are often divided into three parts – a base, a central section (corresponding to the main space), and a top.

  6. Classical Orders: Aesthetic rules and proportions that dictate the design of columns, entablatures, and other architectural elements.

  7. Ornamentation: Decorative details such as friezes, moldings, and sculptures are used to enhance the aesthetic appeal.

 

The giant Ultra Lite Natural Stone Panels have 5 mm NATURAL STONE REINFORCED BY patented ALUMINUM HONEYCOMB, thickness goes from 10 mm to 60 mm. Weight is only 15 kg/m2, density is less than water.   These Ultra Lite Natural Stone Panels are very resistant and durable; they are ideal for large projects because of economic production costs, personalizing, easy handling and erecting.   Used for Facades and Architectural Systems, Interiors, Design, Furniture, Doors, Elevator Cabs, bathrooms, Renovations, Shops, Lobbies, Yachts and Aircrafts, etc.
CSI is the technical world leader for manufacturing Ultra Lite Panels made of stone and other mineral surfaces.
We have had numerous successes throughout the world during our twenty-plus years of experience, thanks to our very effective project-engineering team, who are at the cutting edge of all new technology in our field.
We insure the quality and the competitiveness of our products because of we have also designed innovative machines to produce it, all the technology has been developed in-house.
ULS Panels allies the beauty of stone to the strength of metal through very high-level safe chemistry.
Endowed with exceptional mechanical advantages, ULS Panels are very large in format, up to 1500 mm x 3600 mm, while remaining very light: approximately 15 kg/m2.
ULS Panels are calibrated at the factory; our panel's great diversity of finishing is identical to those of massive natural dimensional stones: high-gloss polishing, impregnation, honed, split-faced, bush-hammered, tooled, chiseled, water-jet cut and finishing, flamed, and so forth. You also have an almost infinite choice of stones: More than 6000 types have been catalogued, including many Granites, Marbles, Quartzes, Limestone, Sandstone, Onyxes, Travertines, to name just a few.   Once assembled, our panels are cut out according to detailed shop drawings, and they can be pre-assembled as ordered : Columns, Pillars, Arches, Cornices, Pedestals, Railings and Parapets, Doors, Blinders, Ceilings, curved shapes and any other architectural details.

Modernization by State-of-the-Art Machineries and Equipment: When classical architecture is modernized using advanced machinery and equipment, several benefits and advancements can be achieved:

  1. Precision and Efficiency: Modern tools like Computer-Aided Design (CAD) and Building Information Modeling (BIM) allow architects and engineers to design and plan with exceptional precision, optimizing every aspect of the structure.

  2. Construction Techniques: State-of-the-art equipment and techniques, such as 3D printing, laser cutting, and advanced formwork, enable the realization of intricate classical details more efficiently.

  3. Materials: Modern construction materials and composites offer increased durability, sustainability, and structural integrity while maintaining the classical aesthetic.

  4. Restoration and Preservation: Advanced technology can aid in the restoration and preservation of historical classical buildings, ensuring their longevity for future generations.

  5. Energy Efficiency: Modernized classical buildings can incorporate energy-efficient features, such as better insulation, smart HVAC systems, and sustainable energy sources.

  6. Safety: Modern construction practices prioritize safety, ensuring that classical buildings meet contemporary building codes and standards.

  7. Innovative Adaptation: Classical architecture can be adapted to serve modern functions and purposes while retaining its timeless beauty.

 

By combining the enduring elegance of classical architecture with cutting-edge technology and equipment, architects and builders can create structures that pay homage to the past while embracing the possibilities of the future. This fusion of tradition and innovation contributes to the rich tapestry of architectural design across different eras.
