3. Introduction
Haisun Technology manufactures exterior stone which made with eco-friendly, bio-friendly and
sustainable materials and processes, the Haisun Exterior Stone emits zero VOCs (volatile organic
compound) and is designed to protect and keep the nature green.
Haisun Exterior Stone is invented for design versatility, performance and unlimited applications for
environments that require the most resistant to harsh conditions for outdoor paving. And it’s an
excellent material to retrofit conventional polymer or clay tactile walking surface indicators, it is also
an ideal alternative for facade and rainscreen wall cladding as well as interiors finishes in hospitals,
airports, train stations and subways stations.
Haisun Exterior Stone combines the features of both engineered stones and quartz stones, it is
created to offer higher performance and used as the alternative to conventional finish materials in
exterior wall cladding and flooring applications.
Haisun Technology pioneers in the industry with advanced technology, strong technical workforce,
advanced manufacturing equipment and sophisticated testing methods and specializes in energy-
saving indicators far above the national standards. Our new exterior stone technology is patented
and certified by ISO9001 as well as tested by a number of ASTM and EN standard tests .
Haisun Technology looks forward to the future, and focus on becoming the World's Pioneer of Green
Stone Technology as the ultimate goal, and we’re willing to support the Eco-friendly industry and
create Eco-friendly community by working with the people of insight with joint effort. 3
4. Applications
Haisun Exterior Stone meet the finish material requirement in hospital design
1. Non-shiny floor finishes are preferred; pale, matt floor finishes are available now that
combine function and aesthetics;
2. Durable; easily cleaned; non-absorbant to liquids and odors; resistant to microbial
growth;
3. Floor and wall materials need to be durable and easily cleaned, it requires minimum
upkeep;
4. High, frequent thermal load worktops - Clinic countertops, tables, vanity tops;
5. Wall finishes shall be washable and, in the proximity of plumbing fixtures, shall be
smooth and moisture resistant;
6. Interior finish materials shall have flame spread and smoke-production limitations as
described in NFPA 101.Wall finishes less than 4 mil thick applied over a noncombustible
material are not subject to flame-spread rating requirements.

5. Haisun Exterior Stone meet the finish material requirements in Train, Subway Stations and Airport
Passenger Terminal design
1. Fitness of purpose within the rail environment. Considerations must be given to material resistance to
ultra-violet light, high humidity, corrosive environments, reflections interfering with signal sighting
and/or driver vision and exposure to stray electrical currents;
2. Structural integrity (particularly resistance of materials, fastening devices and support systems to train-
generated vibrations);
3. Are compatible with the climate;
4. Life cycle costs;
5. Can be easily and cost‐effectively maintained with commonly used equipment
6. The use of low volatile organic compounds (VOC) and water‐based paints and solvents should be
considered to reduce the amount of toxic waste to be managed;
7. Use of less mined resources；
8. Limitation or elimination of the use of materials that pollute or are toxic during manufacturing;
9. Use of rapidly renewable materials.

6. Applications
The Haisun Tactile Walking Surface Indicators is fabricated with Haisun Exterior Stone.
Projects will benefit from its ability to resisting direct UV exposure, weathering
resistance, and its ability to withstand snow removal and freeze thaw conditions.
Typical applications include flooring design in railway and metro, flooring to assist
wayfinding in hospital design, handicap ramps and curb and grade changes.

7. Haisun Tactile Walking Surface Indicators
Haisun Exterior Stones are ideal material to replace polymers, clay brick and the
concrete pavers,
Haisun Stones have good abilty to withstand impacts of diverse pedestrians with
various needs and conditions, from pedestrians individually and in groups, of
different ages, and pedestrians using different assistive devices, such as wheelchairs,
motorized scooters, skateboards, canes, crutches, small carts with wheels, wheeled
luggage, and strollers.

11. Other Applications
Low Emitting Building Materials and finishes
• Haisun Exterior Stone is a low emitting building materials, ideal for using
in educational facilities.
• Good finishes for exterior walls and floors; interior walls and floors in subway
stations.
• Residential Interior Floor, Wall/Backsplash, Countertop
• Commercial Exterior
• Commercial Floors*, Walls/Backsplash, Countertop
* Polished surfaces meet minimum coefficient of friction recommended by
safety standard-setting organizations, for better safety performance in Special
Order sandblasted finish.
