Steni Vision: The illusion of ceramic, the strength of composite
Steni Vision: Safe, durable and creative tunnel walls
Tunnel walls are a challenging environment for construction materials. Traditional tiles may look beautiful, but in practice, they often come loose. Concrete expands and contracts, moisture seeps in behind poorly maintained joints, vibrations from traffic cause small cracks, and aging adhesives lose their grip. The result: detached tiles that can pose a danger to tunnel users and lead to high maintenance costs.
A smart solution
Steni Vision offers an alternative that truly works: ventilated stone composite panels with a printed tile design. They are waterproof, impact-resistant, frost-proof and easy to clean. In addition, the panels are preassembled, allowing for quick and safe installation.
What makes Steni Vision truly unique is that the wall panels can be completely customized — from classic tile patterns to stone, concrete, or fully creative designs. Together with M2uur bv from Deventer, we develop decors that are almost indistinguishable from real tiles, but without the technical drawbacks. This way, you combine safety and durability with a personal, visually appealing appearance for the tunnel.
With Steni Vision, you choose not only a safe and low-maintenance wall cladding, but also a tunnel that looks genuinely inviting — now and for decades to come.
