Frequently Asked Questions
What is VIRANIX stone carpet, and what is it made of?
VIRANIX stone carpet is a single-component, pre-mixed flooring system made of natural, selected stone aggregate and a special, flexible, custom-developed binder. The system can be used directly, without mixing, allowing for fast, clean, and reliable installation both outdoors and indoors.
What surfaces can VIRANIX stone carpet be applied to?
With proper preparation and layer structure, VIRANIX stone carpet can be applied to outdoor and indoor surfaces, for example:
- terraces, stairs, walkways,
- driveways,
- interior walls, hallways, kitchens, bathrooms.
⚠️ Specific suitability is never general — it always depends on the layer structure, thickness, and topcoat used.
Is it suitable for vehicle loads?
Yes, with the proper layer structure, VIRANIX stone carpet is suitable for passenger vehicle loads.
Conditions:
- minimum 6-8 mm layer thickness,
- proper priming,
- applying VIRANIX PRIMECOAT 2K topcoat.
⚠️ Without the above conditions, the product cannot be considered suitable for vehicle loads.
What thickness is needed for different uses?
General guidance (not a binding recommendation):
- Interior wall: approx. 2–3 mm
- Terrace, stairs, pedestrian traffic: approx. 4–6 mm
- Vehicle loads: minimum 6-8 mm + 2K topcoat
The exact thickness is determined by the substrate and the load.
What warranty applies to VIRANIX stone carpet?
As a product, VIRANIX stone carpet is covered by the statutory warranty for defects.
In addition:
- 10-year system and material warranty if installation is carried out by an official VIRANIX partner according to the specified layer structure
- 3-year warranty if installation is carried out by a non-official partner
⚠️ The warranty does not cover an unsuitable substrate, installation errors, or deviation from the layer structure.
Is VIRANIX stone carpet completely smooth?
The surface of the stone carpet is finely textured, with a natural stone effect.
With a topcoat, the surface becomes more sealed and easier to clean, but it won't be mirror-smooth like a resin floor.
This property is what provides the slip resistance.
What are the advantages of stone carpet flooring?
VIRANIX stone carpet is a slip-resistant, UV-resistant, frost-resistant, and extremely durable flooring. Its flexible structure handles thermal expansion well, gives a modern look, and with the proper topcoat is easy to keep clean. With the proper layer structure, it's also suitable for vehicle loads.
Is primer needed under VIRANIX stone carpet?
Yes. VIRANIX stone carpet cannot be applied without priming.
The primer's job is:
- ensuring adhesion,
- equalizing the substrate's absorbency,
- increasing the flooring's service life.
⚠️ If priming is improper or skipped, the flooring's adhesion may suffer, and this is not covered by the warranty.
Is VIRANIX stone carpet water-permeable or waterproof?
In its base state, VIRANIX stone carpet is a water-permeable flooring.
- an advantage outdoors (water doesn't pool on it),
- indoors and in wet rooms, a topcoat is needed.
⚠️ Full waterproofing can only be achieved with the proper 2K topcoat and layer structure.
What colors and patterns are available?
VIRANIX stone carpet is available in more than 24 color variations and 2 grain sizes, making it easy to match any setting.
