Stonini manufactures fire rated, lightweight 3D wall panels from our factory in Sydney, NSW. Our panels are hand-cast from a mineral composite of gypsum, waterbased resin, fibreglass mesh and inert fillers — a composition that is non-combustible, water resistant and mould resistant.
We produce four distinct ranges — 3D Wall Panels, Concrete Wall Panels, Delta (marble-effect) Wall Panels, and Earth Range (rammed earth) Wall Panels — in over 30 profiles. Each panel is individually cast by hand, giving every piece a unique, natural texture that cannot be replicated by machine-pressed or injection-moulded products.
Deep, sculpted profiles that emulate natural stone. Ideal for interior and exterior feature walls. Available in traditional 1800 × 600 mm format and floor-to-ceiling 2700 × 600 mm panels for seamless, large-scale installations.
View 3D range →Lightweight alternative to real concrete. Achieves raw industrial, pitted, board-formed or polished concrete aesthetic without the weight, cracking or expansion issues of actual concrete. Installed in Country Road stores, PwC offices, Flow Athletic and other commercial fit-outs.
View concrete range →Flat-surfaced panels with hand-manipulated colour and pattern that emulate marble, limestone, travertine, sandstone and granite. No erosion, no cracking, no deterioration.
View Delta range →Rammed earth textures for a natural, grounded aesthetic. Pigment is mixed within the material, so colour is consistent through the full panel thickness — if chipped, damage is less visible than surface-painted alternatives.
View Earth range →Stonini wall panels are tested and certified to the highest fire safety standards for wall and ceiling linings under Australian building codes.
Group Number 1
Tested by AWTA Product Testing (NATA-accredited) in accordance with AS/NZS 3837:1998, assessed per AS 5637.1:2015. Result: Group Number 1 — the highest classification for wall and ceiling linings under the NCC. Average specific extinction area: 11.9 m²/kg (well under the 250 m²/kg smoke limit for unsprinklered buildings).
Group 1 means Stonini panels are accepted in all locations within all building classes (Class 2–9), including fire-isolated exits, fire control rooms, public corridors, hospital patient care areas and theatre auditoriums — without requiring a sprinkler concession.

Not deemed combustible
Tested by Ignis Labs Pty Ltd (NATA-accredited, lab no. 20314) in accordance with AS 1530.1:1994 — Combustibility test for materials. Result: Not deemed combustible. Zero seconds of sustained flaming across all five specimens. Mean mass loss: 8.30%.
These certifications make Stonini suitable for commercial interiors, hospitality, healthcare, education, multi-residential corridors and facades where NCC fire compliance is required.
