Product Details and Usage Areas
Its body consists of deep transitions of warm almond beige, sand ivory, and light cream tones. Its surface features elegant white crystal veins that run diagonally and dynamically across the slab, along with subtly shaded marble layers. The glossy (polished) surface texture reflects light evenly to every corner of the space, lending a serene, bright, and luxurious architectural identity to the environment. The giant 120×280 cm slab size minimizes grout lines in vertical and horizontal coverings, offering a seamless and fluid natural stone appearance.
It is produced with a thickness of 6 millimeters. Capillary cracks, acid burns, lime scale, and liquid absorption problems frequently encountered in natural light-colored marble and limestone are completely eliminated thanks to its porcelain body. Due to its low square meter weight, it can be directly applied to the exterior shell of buildings in mechanical facade systems, vertical interior projects, and movable furniture surfaces without imposing 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 focal walls behind TVs, in hotel and office lobbies, around fireplaces, and on bathroom facades. Almond beige tones perfectly complement walnut furniture and gold/bronze metal profiles.
- Furniture Surfaces: Thanks to its 6mm thinness and lightness, it can be applied by adhering it to island countertop side panels, bathroom consoles, and architectural dining tables. It does not strain supporting hardware and rail mechanisms.
- Facade and Flooring: It is fully resistant to frost, severe temperature differences, and direct sunlight (UV) rays. No fading or yellowing occurs on the light almond background and white vein lines due to outdoor conditions.
Porcelain Material Advantages
- Liquid Repellency: Thanks to its non-porous crystallized body, tea, coffee, oil, and acidic cleaning agents do not penetrate the surface. It does not require annual impregnation or maintenance polish.
- Heat Resistance: Since it is fired at very high temperatures, it maintains its form against direct flame exposure, high heat around fireplaces, and hot pot contact, without cracking or expanding.
- Easy Cleaning: The glassy porcelain surface does not retain dirt or lime scale. It is easily cleaned with standard neutral cleaners and a microfiber cloth.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the light almond beige porcelain surface yellow over time?
No. Since porcelain has near-zero water absorption and full resistance to UV rays, environmental yellowing seen in light-colored natural stones does not occur with this material.
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 adhered over old ceramic or granite coverings without breaking them.
Does the glossy 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 natural marbles.
