What is Translucent Onyx?

Translucent onyx is a new type of composite material made from polymer materials. Like artificial stone, it uses translucent resin, and its patterning process is similar to that of artificial jade. Its formula is essentially the same as that of crystal stone.

Translucent onyx is made by casting unsaturated resin, aluminum hydroxide, and other additives into molds under special process conditions. It can be processed into various shapes, such as flat panels, boxes, irregular shapes, arcs/arc segments, and molded products.

The difference between translucent onyx and natural stone

The essential difference between the two is that natural stone is formed naturally, and there are naturally occurring translucent stones—commonly known as jade. In contrast, translucent onyx is a man-made material, a new type of composite made from polymer materials. However, it is difficult to visually distinguish translucent onyx from natural translucent stones.

Advantages of Translucent Onyx

1. It has excellent performance with high strength, no pollution, no radiation/radioactivity, non-toxicity, non-flammability, resistance to oil, dirt, and corrosion, low water absorption and no seepage, antibacterial and mold-resistant properties, wear resistance, impact resistance, easy maintenance, seamless splicing, versatile shaping, easy installation, and high durability. It is gradually becoming a favorite in the renovation and building materials market.

2. It is lightweight, has high hardness, is resistant to acids and alkalis, and the thickness of the panels can be adjusted. It has good gloss, obvious translucency, is not easy to deform, fire-resistant, aging-resistant, and is an environmentally friendly green building material.

3. Compared to natural onyx, it is lighter in weight and can be easily bent according to customer needs, achieving a seamless and natural effect.

4. Thanks to the light transmission effect, it can create a dreamy, ethereal atmosphere with translucent clarity, rich and dynamic patterns. It combines the elegant luxury of natural marble patterns with the tasteful style of modern art.

Specifications of Translucent Onyx

The standard dimensions are 1220*2440mm and 1220*3050mm. The thickness should generally not be less than 5mm, typically ranging from 6mm to 20mm, and can be customized as needed.

Applications

Translucent onyx is used for a variety of applications, including wall decoration, ceiling suspension, translucent background walls, custom lighting fixtures, translucent ceilings, translucent bars, translucent flooring, translucent columns, translucent light columns, as well as various shaped translucent countertops and art pieces, ornaments, and more.

Application Areas: Sales offices, entertainment spaces, exhibition halls, and other commercial spaces, as well as translucent curtain walls, translucent ceilings, translucent furniture, and high-end translucent lighting fixtures in various buildings.

Wall Surface Construction Process
1. Wall base treatment: Use 5mm plywood as the base, mark the lighting lines, and fix the light tubes.
2. According to the thickness specifications of the translucent onyx, weld the structure (base) with angle iron on the wall, ensuring it is aligned on a vertical plane.
3. Drill holes at the top and bottom of the translucent onyx, and fix it onto the structural frame with specialized translucent onyx components to prevent it from falling. Secure it with onyx adhesive.

Translucent Onyx Ceiling (Lightbox Panels) Construction Process
1. Drill expansion bolts into the original ceiling and fix the full-thread hanging rods.
2. Fix the main keel and secondary keel onto the hanging rods.
3. Attach gypsum board and fine plywood to the light steel keel using self-tapping screws (screw holes should be treated with anti-rust paint).
4. Apply two coats of chlorinated rubber or emulsified varnish anti-moisture paint, then apply a 2mm thick water-resistant putty layer, followed by latex paint for the finish.
5. Install L-shaped stainless steel edge strips, securing them to the wooden base with self-tapping screws.
6. Install the translucent onyx light panels, leaving a 3mm gap at the edges for maintenance access.

Application Case

The staircase on the first floor, without handrails, is separated by a piece of transparent glass. The cantilevered steps of the staircase are made of translucent onyx, and as soon as you enter, the glowing staircase is even more dazzling than the crystal chandelier. The marble background in the living room, like the staircase, is also made of glowing onyx, giving the minimalist white style a unique and extraordinary feel.

This villa has a total area of over 1800㎡, with its exterior primarily constructed of marble and glass. The classic black-and-white design is simple yet exquisite. The dining table is adorned with translucent onyx, while the dining chairs are specially designed to resemble tree stumps. The contrast between the smooth and rough textures highlights the wonders of nature.

This is a top-floor apartment with large expanses of white latex-painted walls. The two-level partition is made of closed semi-translucent onyx, complementing the white walls beautifully.

In the spacious, classic, and dignified design, the space is symmetrically divided, with the reception desk placed calmly on the right side. Behind it, the onyx feature wall softly glows with a warm radiance, attracting visitors to step into the next space.

Inspired by fire, the design uses its bold and dynamic energy to counterbalance and invigorate the building's previously somber and austere atmosphere, while also creating a strong ambiance in the Chinese dining area. The entrance to the dining room is made of translucent onyx, with beautiful flame-like patterns visible on the stone, guiding people into the room like a time tunnel, enhancing the sense of ceremony and drama at the entrance.

The background wall features stone and metal partitions, drawing inspiration from "Mondrian’s" composition, and combining the glowing onyx at the reception desk with special metal "bindings" to bring an artistic and luxurious atmosphere to the modern space.

In the water bar area, the lowered ceiling height creates a sense of space layering and highlights the functionality of the bar. The translucent onyx, enhanced by amber lighting, conveys an exceptional sense of quality and a comfortable mood.

The staircase, a part of the original building, connects to the upper functional spaces. The designer placed an onyx screen to lower the visual height from the exhibition area, minimizing the disruption caused by the staircase's upward view.
