Product Details and Areas of Use
Its body is inspired by the color transformation left by time and industrial firing processes on steel sheets. On a background blending smoky steel grey and hazy petrol blue tones, organically distributed oxidized mustard yellow, burnt copper, and reddish rust corrosion halos are present on the surface. The matte and slightly embossed natural surface texture absorbs light without glare; it gives spaces a loft, brutalist, and highly refined avant-garde identity. The giant 120×280 cm slab size minimizes joint lines in vertical and horizontal coverings, creating a seamless aged industrial metal wall effect.
It is produced with a thickness of 6 millimeters. Problems such as rust shedding into the environment, moisture-induced decay, acid, and fingerprint stains, which are frequently encountered in real corroded sheet metal and oxidized metals, have been completely eliminated thanks to its sintered porcelain body. Due to its low square meter weight, it can be directly applied to the exterior shell of buildings in mechanically ventilated facade systems, in vertical interior projects, and on movable furniture surfaces without imposing a static load on the system.
Application Options
- Interior Walls and Panels: Thanks to its 120×280 cm size, it provides a seamless panel effect on focal walls behind TVs, in hotel and restaurant entrances, on fireplace facades, and on monolithic bathroom surfaces. The blue and rust tones create a strong contrast with walnut furniture, brass lighting fixtures, and smoked glass.
- Furniture Surfaces: With its 6mm thin and lightweight structure, it can be applied by gluing to island counter side panels, wardrobe doors, and architectural design tables. It does not strain supporting structures and rail mechanisms.
- Facade and Flooring: It is fully resistant to frost, severe temperature changes, and direct sunlight (UV) rays. No fading or color loss occurs on its blue background and oxidized rust textures due to external environmental conditions.
Porcelain Material Advantages
- Liquid Repellency: Unlike real sheet metal coatings, it is non-porous. Coffee, oil, wine, and acidic cleaners do not penetrate the surface, leaving no permanent stains. It does not require anti-rust chemical or varnish maintenance.
- Heat Resistance: Since it is fired at very high temperatures, it retains its form against direct flame exposure, high heat around fireplaces, and hot pot contact, without cracking.
- Easy Cleaning: The non-porous porcelain surface does not retain limescale or dirt. It is easily cleaned with standard neutral cleaners and a damp microfiber cloth.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do the aged blue and rust patterns leave paint or dust in the environment?
No. The metallic and corrosion textures are sintered into the porcelain body at high temperatures; they do not shed, nor do they transfer color to contacting surfaces or clothing.
Can the 120×280 cm slab be applied over existing cladding?
Yes. Due to its 6mm thickness, it is lightweight. After applying a suitable adhesion-enhancing transition primer to the surface, it can be directly glued over old ceramic or granite coverings without breaking them.
Does the matte blue metallic surface scratch with daily contact?
Porcelain slabs achieve high surface hardness through industrial firing technology. They exhibit superior resistance to friction and scratches compared to real sheet metal and painted panels.
