Properties of "Flexible Stone"

• Stone tiles with a thickness of up to 3 millimeters, which can ... be bent at an angle of 90 degrees - just yesterday it was a fantasy, a fiction that any specialist would condemn. However, today it is becoming a reality.
• In the production of "Flexible Stone" sandstone is used as a base, and the binder is an acrylic dispersion on a textile basis. Flexibility, ductility and incredible wear resistance give the finished product the qualities described above.
• The fact is that if you look at a section of the "Flexible Stone" through a microscope, it becomes clear how this material acquires such unusual properties. The grains of sand in the structure of the "Flexible Stone" are located with a much lower density than usual. Due to this, the material remains flexible even after complete solidification.

Material Advantages

• Accordingly, the scope of the new material becomes much wider.
• "Flexible stone" has amazing properties and characteristics, immediately afterthe release of the material to the market caused an unprecedented stir:
• The material retains all the attractive properties of ordinary stone, surpassing them in many ways.
• He's very handsome. The color scheme of the material is warm with a pronounced play of shades, and each area of ​​the surface of the material has its own unique pattern.
• Ecological and safe. The material is created on a natural basis, it is able to "breathe", that is, it has vapor permeability, so finishing with it improves the microclimate in the premises.
• Reliable. The service life of such material is at least 35 years without loss of performance. Not many facing materials can "boast" of such a high service life.

• It is light in weight, so it does not increase the load on either the foundation or the load-bearing structures. It can be used as a facade finishing material without restrictions even in lightweight buildings. And, besides, this property makes it much easier to install and transport.
• The plasticity and flexibility of the material allows you to finish any surface: with a large number of corners, arched, curvilinear and even spherical.
• It retains all its properties in the temperature range from -30 to 650 degrees.
Non-toxic, does not contain dyes and impurities, does not emit in environment no volatile components either at elevated temperatures or during long-term operation. The composition of the material is completely free of formaldehydes, phenols, epichlorohydrin. "Flexible stone" is 100% environmentally friendly and neutral, does not react with chemically active media (acids, alkali). The material is translucent, which allows it to be used in a wide range of design solutions. The durability of the "Flexible Stone" is simply amazing - according to experts, the period of active use of the material is at least 35 years. Unusual for artificial stone lightness: 1 square meter"Flexible stone" weighs only 4 kg. Fire safety. The material does not burn and does not support combustion. Plastic. "Flexible stone" is able to take the most bizarre geometric shapes.
• Simplicity and convenience of installation. The material is easy to lay, convenient to glue, it cannot be damaged during laying or transportation.
• Incredible ease of use. "Flexible stone" does not require special care, processing, cleaning with special detergents.
Absolute safety for people and animals. "Flexible stone" does not contain formaldehyde or other toxic substances. The material does not swell and does not pass moisture.

Demand for the material, ways to use it

One of the main advantages of the material can be called a combination of almost limitless possibilities of its application with the ease of working with it. Finishing with "flexible stone" is essentially very similar to pasting ordinary wallpaper. To protect the material after finishing finishing works a protective layer of a water repellent is applied to the outer surfaces.

The new material can be laid on the floor or walls in the form of facing tiles, while it meets all the requirements and standards for floor coverings and wall cladding.

With the help of this building material, it is possible to finish both external - facade surfaces, and internal surfaces, embodying any interior design solutions.

Also, "Flexible stone" is used for facing rooms with high humidity in bathrooms, basins in kitchens.

They can safely trim fireplaces.

Light transmission can be considered a unique phenomenon of this type. finishing materials, so it finds its application in lighting designs. The vaults of grottoes glowing with a warm soft light, and niches trimmed with "flexible stone" will make the interior especially memorable and even a little magical.

If on the "flexible stone" with special technology UV printing to apply frescoes, you get not just a finishing design, but a genuine decoration of the room.

In addition, "Flexible Stone" is perfect for facing furniture boards in the manufacture of kitchens and will become an indispensable alternative to traditional facade facing materials.

"Flexible stone" can finish pools, paths, plinths, facades. Due to its flexibility, the material without additional processing is suitable for finishing columns, arches, and other similar architectural details, and this is far from complete list structures for which it is possible to successfully apply the finish of "flexible stone"

And, finally, one of the main features of the "Flexible Stone" is its low cost. (the cost of a square meter of the product is not more than 100 rubles) and great earning potential.

Thermal panels based on acrylic binders.

insulation, soundproofing, facade finishing.

At the same time, while retaining all the properties of the "flexible stone", as well as low energy consumption, low cost of equipment, highly skilled workers and a large room are not required.

Is it worth starting a business for the production of thermal panels? The material in question is used in the construction of buildings and residential buildings. It is used in exterior work. Thermal panels consist of insulation and clinker tiles.

The business in the production of thermal panels is very profitable, because the material is in demand. It gained its popularity due to its long service life, good heat-preserving properties. All of the above makes it safe to assume that this business idea can be profitable if implemented correctly.

Thermal panels production technology:

1. Clinker tiles are placed in special aluminum molds - matrices processed in advance with the desired composition. One of the main rules of this stage is compliance with the established distance standards.
2. Then, to protect the polyurethane foam from ultraviolet rays, a layer of quartz sand is laid out.
3. After these operations, the aluminum molds are filled with the composition of the insulation.
4. Upon completion of the main stages, the thermal panel will receive its final form after cooling. To do this, it is sent for revision to the desired parameters.

Key points for the production of thermal panels

The basis of thermal panels are: insulation, metal profiles and cladding. Their features:

• Facing of thermal panels is done using the smallest volumes of water so that cracks do not appear in the facade. Thanks to this, the facade will be able to repel rather than absorb water, and will be able to survive temperature drops.
• A 5-10 cm thick expanded polystyrene plate is used as a heater for a future thermal panel. In the process of creating an element, expanded polystyrene is glued to its outer part using special compounds.
• Embedded metal profiles also play an important role in the production of thermal panels. The edges of the metal parts are serrated, and due to this they will better adhere to the building cladding. At the time of manufacturing the thermal panel, the embedded profiles are fixed inside the concrete body. They are needed to attach the element to the facade.

What equipment to choose for the production of thermal panels

The necessary equipment for the production of thermal panels includes the following equipment:

• mechanisms for creating foam plastic: ripening bunkers, pseudo-foamers, etc.;
• steam generator, vacuum unit, block molds;
• secondary devices (airbag, fan, etc.).

Also, for the manufacture of thermal panels, you will need clinker tiles. There are 2 options here: either purchase equipment for production and create consumables on your own, or purchase raw materials from suppliers.

There is an opinion that there are few enterprises in the Russian markets that supply equipment for the production of thermal panels, but this is not so. Modern range the goods are large, and everyone can choose for themselves suitable option, which will suit him both in terms of price and performance.

So that the manufacture of thermal panels does not eventually drive the owner into debt, but brings good profit and works with double efficiency, it is necessary to carefully consider the selection of premises, equipment and consumables. An integral part, which includes the production of thermal panels, are expendable materials such as bushings for fastening, anti-adhesive lubricant, quartz sand.

How much money do you need to start a business for the production of thermal panels

One of the main features of a business is that you need to invest money in it. The production of thermal panels is not considered an exception among a huge number of business ideas. Fixed assets in this production are spent on rent or purchase of premises and equipment. In addition, it is possible that you want to save money, and instead of producing clinker tiles, the choice will fall on its purchase from suppliers. In this case, the company will be able to save at first, but in the future, if the business "goes uphill", then you still have to buy the necessary equipment.

In order to establish a streaming production of thermal panels, in which 360 elements will be manufactured in one shift, some funds will have to be spent on the purchase of equipment, the rental of premises and equipment for production needs, and in addition, on stocks of raw materials. The amount will be about 5 million rubles (if you count together with the equipment for creating clinker tiles).

Setting up a production facility of this magnitude (360 panels per shift) would require an area of ​​250 m². Profitability on average per year is often 20%. The finances invested in the production of thermal panels according to this plan usually pay for themselves in 9-18 months. Personnel for such production will also be required. For the production of 360 panels per shift, 14 people are needed.

Production doesn't have to be that expensive, but if you invest less, it will pay off much later. In the production of thermal panels on a smaller scale, the efficiency of which will be measured by 100 panels per shift, the costs will reach approximately 1.4 million rubles (excluding equipment for creating clinker tiles).

An industrial plant with an efficiency of approximately 90 panels per shift will require a floor area of ​​at least 100 m². You will also need to hire staff in the amount of 9-10 people. The average annual profitability of such production is 17-18%, and financial investments will pay off much later than the previous version - in a period of 12 to 24 months.

Is it profitable?

Trying to open your own business is always a risk, because you can incur losses. How big is this chance in the project for the production of thermal panels? These designs, as it was written earlier, are accelerating their pace in winning first places among building materials. This circumstance increases the chances of success, but if something becomes popular and profitable, then this idea is picked up by many, creating competition in the niche. Therefore, you need to stay ahead of your competitors.

In the best case, and with serious investments, the business for the production of thermal panels will pay off in about 9 months. While not all places are occupied in the market and thermal panels have not become the most popular material, perhaps it is worth occupying this niche?

How much can you earn

This line of business is mostly seasonal, and therefore its profitability is in the range of 15 to 20%. With a properly established production and sales market, the net annual profit can reach 1 - 1.5 million rubles. Thus, the average return on investment is one and a half to two years.

What OKVED must be specified for the production of thermal panels

When submitting an application, you will need to indicate the code according to OKVED. To do this, we turn to section "C", which includes different kinds processing industry. Here, code 23.61 is suitable for the production of thermal panels - the manufacture of various concrete products that are intended for use in the construction industry.

What documents are needed to open

If it is initially planned to sell thermal panels to large construction companies, then it is necessary to register a legal entity. In order to reduce the tax burden the best option registration of a limited liability company. You can register as individual entrepreneur, but the first option provides more options. The registration authority will need to prepare and submit:

• application of the established form and decision of the meeting of shareholders on the establishment of a limited liability company;
• address details legal entity(in most cases indicates the address of the production areas) and the Charter;
• information about the director of the company and the chief accountant.

In addition, it will be necessary to register with government agencies and open a bank account.

What taxation system to choose for the production of thermal panels

Among several systems for which it will be necessary to pay tax, we dwell on the simplified one, it is available for limited liability companies. This system of taxation provides a choice of two options for paying taxes:

1. you can pay a tax of 15% of the net profit received. But here it will be necessary to provide relevant documents that confirm the costs incurred by the company in the manufacture of products.
2. 6% income tax. In this case, you do not need to provide any supporting documents on expenses.

Do I need permission to open

For the production of thermal panels, in addition to the certificate of registration of the LLC, it will be necessary to apply for permission to the sanitary and epidemiological station and the fire inspection.

• Easy to operate, does not require special care.

In addition, facing material is used as a finish for both external facades and interior decoration of premises, and abroad also for restoration purposes.

Requirements for the production process:

For production decorative stone You will need a room of impressive size. Water is used in the technological cycle, which means that the main requirement will be the absence of sub-zero temperatures so that the liquid does not freeze. Accordingly, heat working area not necessary. But drying the stone requires a stable 30-degree temperature and low humidity. The second integral component of the production of decorative stone is highly qualified personnel, and specifically the technologist. His responsibilities include the development of a unique recipe, as each model requires an individual approach, color matching and raw material. Thanks to the artificial stone production franchise, you will quickly master the skills of the technological line, and will also be able to regularly send your staff to refresher courses and study the latest technologies in the field of construction.

Thermal panels (or heat panels) are a modern construction material, which has excellent thermal insulation properties, as well as a long service life. The demand for this material increases with the increase in energy prices for heating residential areas. Owners of private houses and apartments are beginning to think about how they can save on this significant expense item, and one of the options for solving this problem is wall insulation.

In principle, none of the modern types of insulation is ideal. All of them, to one degree or another, require additional protection from moisture, wind and sunlight. For example, foam and mineral wool, after fixing to the wall, must be covered with plaster, siding or tiles. All this increases the time and estimate for the implementation of work on the insulation of the house. And in this regard, thermal panels seem to be an ideal option. They act as both a heater and a decoration of the facade of the building at the same time. When installing them, it is not required to perform two types of work at once, as with separate installation of insulation and decor. Thermal panels have soundproofing functions and are modern look finishing facade materials. Thus, the production of thermal panels can be called a profitable and fast-payback business.

The main advantages of facade thermal panels over other facade finishing technologies are: effective thermal insulation of the building, the ability to use both for the construction of a new building and for reconstruction on any surface and type of wall, rich colors, attractive appearance“brick-like” cladding (smooth or textured), long service life (more than fifty years), ease and speed of installation of heat panels, the possibility of cladding, regardless of weather conditions, the exclusion of “wet” processes during installation, the cleanliness and accuracy of joining plates, environmental safety of the technology used and the materials themselves.

What are thermal panels? One panel consists of several components: cladding, insulation and embedded metal profiles. The basis for the cladding is high-strength concrete, which consists of 500 grade cement and 1200 grade granite screenings. The cladding is carried out with minimal use of water, so this facade does not have pores and microcracks and, therefore, it does not absorb water and is more resistant to low temperatures, than other, more porous materials. At the same time, the cladding of facade thermal panels has no restrictions on colors and shades. As a heater in the production of thermal panels, a slab of expanded polystyrene 5-10 cm thick is used. This material has heat-insulating properties and is used as a heater. In the production of thermal panels, expanded polystyrene is glued to the facing part, and in the process of facade cladding, adhesive compositions are used to fix them. Finally, embedded metal profiles are intended for additional fixing of thermal panels on the facade. Mortgage profiles in the process of production of thermal panels are fixed inside the concrete body. When facing, they are fixed with the help of jagged edges in the lining (they have specially made holes for dowels).

The technology for the production of thermal panels is quite complicated. It can be simplified in the form of the following steps. On the preparatory stage expanded styrene granules - the main raw material for the production of panels - are foamed and dried. Then clinker tiles and fasteners for fixing the panel on the wall are laid in the block form. After that, foamed granules are loaded to them. The block molds are heated with steam, causing the granules to expand and the composition to fill the entire mold. This is how the thermopanel is formed. In a vacuum plant finished panel cools down. And at the last stage, it is left to “ripen” for 24 hours.

For the production of facade thermal panels, special equipment is required. The minimum set includes: equipment for the production of foam plastic (pre-expanders, ripening bunkers, etc.), equipment for the production of thermal panels themselves (block molds, steam generator, vacuum installation, etc.), auxiliary equipment (fan, air bag, etc.). ), equipment for the production of clinker tiles (kiln and molds). The latter equipment is not the most necessary, and many small industries do without it, buying ready-made clinker tiles from wholesale companies. On the one hand, this really helps to significantly save on the purchase of equipment, and on the other hand, the cost of your heat panels will be higher. At the same time, keep in mind that one of the few advantages of a new manufacturer may be an affordable price with good quality products. The higher the cost of your panels, the less your profit will be.

Most likely, there will be no problems with finding equipment. Presented on the Russian market wide selection models of lines with different performance and cost. At the same time, you can choose the optimal line both for large production (with high performance and fully automated), and for a small enterprise (with relatively low power).

Let us calculate the main costs of organizing the industrial production of thermal panels with a capacity of 360 panels per shift. The main items of expenditure are the rent of the premises, its repair and preparation, the purchase of equipment and the first batch of raw materials. All this will require about 4.5-5 million rubles, including the purchase of equipment in complete set, that is, together with a line for the production of clinker tiles. To accommodate a fully equipped production line, an area of ​​at least 250 square meters is required. meters, and its maintenance will require a staff of workers in the amount of 14-15 people. The average annual profitability of such production is 20%. And according to preliminary estimates, the enterprise will reach the level of self-sufficiency in a year and a half from the start of work.
