All of Steni's lightweight rainscreen panels are manufactured from fibreglass reinforced polymer composites but Nature panels are faced with natural stone and are available in five grades, ranging from fine micro to coarse tumbled, and 20 standard colours. ]

Imago panels are also aggregate faced but with ceramic coloured natural stone in 12 colours.

Steni Colour features a smooth surface of electron beam cured acrylic - 100% acrylic without the use of solvents - and is available in three gloss levels and up to 60 standard colours.

All of Steni's panels have a life expectancy of 60 years and are currently warrantied for 40.
