The Simplest and Fastest Marble Installation Method
On this page, we will introduce several common installation methods for Miyuro natural ultra-thin marble. Unlike traditional heavy marble, which often requires complex dry-hanging systems, thick mortar beds, or labor-intensive installation, Miyuro natural ultra-thin marble offers a lighter, easier-to-handle, and more efficient solution. Its lightweight structure allows for more flexible, faster, and environmentally friendly installation methods according to different application scenarios.
Whether used for walls, floors, elevator cabins, hotel lobbies, renovation projects, furniture surfaces, or commercial interior decoration, Miyuro provides a lightweight natural stone solution for a wide range of spaces. Next, through specific installation methods and video demonstrations, we will help you better understand how Miyuro natural ultra-thin marble reduces installation difficulty, shortens construction time, and effectively saves overall costs.
Method 1: Thin-set installation on a solid substrate
Thanks to the lightweight and thin structure of Miyuro natural ultra-thin marble, this method is suitable for walls and floors with relatively flat substrates. Miyuro natural marble can be installed using a thin-set adhesive method similar to ceramic tiles.
Compared with traditional 18mm marble, which often requires a thick mortar bed, longer installation time, and higher labor skills, this method can effectively reduce overall costs and shorten the construction period by up to 50%.
After receiving our ultra-thin marble products, simply level the cement substrate through screed leveling or self-leveling treatment. Then, use a trowel to apply the adhesive mortar evenly onto the substrate before laying the marble slabs.
For more details, please refer to the video below.
Video: After being installed using the thin-set method, Miyuro natural ultra-thin marble allows for easier crystallization treatment and delivers an excellent mirror-like finish. By sliding a tape measure back and forth across the surface, its high level of flatness after installation can be clearly demonstrated.
Method 2: Prefabricated Installation with Light Steel Framing
Traditional thick marble is heavy and usually requires heavy steel framing and complex dry-hanging systems for installation. In contrast, thanks to its lightweight and thin structure, Miyuro natural ultra-thin marble can be installed on walls using a light steel framing system.
Light steel framing is lighter in structure, faster to install, and takes up less space, while effectively reducing both material and labor costs. Compared with traditional dry-hanging systems, the material cost of light steel framing is approximately 1/4, and the labor cost is approximately 1/3, significantly improving installation efficiency and reducing overall construction costs.
At the same time, because Miyuro natural ultra-thin marble is lightweight and easy to install, the installation process becomes much more accessible. With basic construction tools and proper installation guidance, you can even complete the marble installation by yourself.
