Product Details and Application Areas
Its body consists of oxide petroleum green, smoked, and dark steel grey tones, which are the most striking components of industrial architecture. Rust, copper, and oxide stains, reflecting the wear effects left by time on metal and slate stones, are depicted in layers on its surface. The natural matte surface texture absorbs light, giving spaces a masculine, loft, and strong architectural identity. The giant slab size of 120×280 cm minimizes joint lines in vertical and horizontal applications, creating a seamless oxide stone panel feel.
It is produced with a thickness of 6 millimeters. Structural defects such as flaking, rust bleeding, liquid absorption, and chemical corrosion encountered in real rusted metals or natural slate stones are completely eliminated thanks to its sintered porcelain structure. Due to its low square meter weight, it can be directly applied to building facades, mechanical facade systems, wet area walls, and 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 monolithic panel effect on TV-back focus walls, in cafe and restaurant spaces, around fireplaces, and on bathroom facades. The oxide green tones achieve perfect harmony with anthracite aluminum and dark woods.
- Furniture Surfaces: With its lightweight 6mm structure, it can be applied by gluing to kitchen island sides, bathroom consoles, and architecturally designed tables. It does not strain supporting components and mechanisms.
- Facade and Floor: It is fully resistant to frost, severe temperature differences, and direct sunlight (UV) rays. Fading or color loss due to outdoor conditions does not occur in oxide petroleum green and copper tones.
Porcelain Material Advantages
- Liquid Repellency: Thanks to its non-porous structure, acidic liquids, oil, water, and chemicals do not penetrate the material. It does not require protective polish or anti-rust varnish like real metallic surfaces.
- Heat Resistance: Since it is fired at very high temperatures, it does not crack or expand when exposed to direct flame, high heat around fireplaces, or hot pot contact.
- Easy Cleaning: The non-porous porcelain surface does not hold dirt or limescale. It can be easily cleaned with standard neutral surface cleaners and a damp cloth.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the oxide and rust-effect texture flake or bleed color over time?
No. The metallic and rust textures are integrated into the porcelain body and sintered. They do not bleed rust or flake into the environment like real corroded metals.
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 primer to the surface, it can be directly glued over old ceramic or granite claddings without breaking them.
Does the matte porcelain surface scratch with daily contact?
Porcelain slabs have high surface hardness thanks to industrial firing technology; they are much more resistant to friction and scratches compared to natural stone and metals.
