Product Details and Usage Areas
Its body features an exotic design inspired by nature’s most striking colors, set upon bright white and pale gray tones. Its surface has vertically flowing forest green, deep gray, and warm bronze lines in a vein-cut pattern. This fluid texture, reminiscent of rare Brazilian quartzites and luxurious onyx stones, combined with its glossy (polished) surface, adds a striking, dynamic, and ultra-luxurious character to spaces. Thanks to its giant 120×280 cm size, these vertical lines extend uninterrupted across large walls, enhancing the perception of ceiling height.
It is produced with a thickness of 6 millimeters. Disadvantages such as maintenance needs, acid and chemical burns, and capillary crack formation, which create high costs in exotic natural stones, are not experienced with this product thanks to porcelain’s superior technology. With its low square meter weight, it can be directly applied in ambitious interior design projects, bathroom accent walls, and custom-designed furniture coverings without imposing extra static load on the system.
Application Options
- Interior Walls and Panels: Thanks to its 120×280 cm size, it provides a seamless panel (bookmatch/vein-match) effect like a painting on accent walls behind TVs, in villa entrances, and in luxury restaurant or hotel lobbies. Its vertical veins make the space appear taller.
- Furniture Surfaces: With its lightweight 6mm structure, it can be directly adhered to kitchen island counter sides, bathroom cabinet doors, and luxury meeting/dining tables. It does not disrupt supporting rail and hinge systems.
- Facade and Flooring: It is fully resistant to frost, severe temperature changes, and direct sunlight (UV) rays. No fading or color loss occurs in its forest green and bronze veins due to external factors.
Advantages of Porcelain Material
- Liquid Repellency: Thanks to its non-porous surface, liquids such as tea, coffee, and acidic liquids (lemon, vinegar) do not penetrate the surface. It does not require annual impregnation or surface protective (polish) treatment.
- Heat Resistance: Since it is fired at very high temperatures, it maintains its structure against direct heat, pot contact, and flame effects, and does not crack under thermal shocks.
- Easy Cleaning: The stain-resistant porcelain surface can be easily wiped clean with standard neutral cleaners and a microfiber cloth, maintaining its original shine.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do the green and bronze veins lose their shine over time?
No. Since the patterns and colors are integrated into the porcelain body and fired with a glassy glaze at high temperatures, they do not fade over time and do not lose their shine and vibrancy.
Does the 120×280 cm vertically patterned slab adhere to existing cladding?
Yes. Thanks to its 6mm thickness, it is quite light. After applying a suitable adhesion-enhancing transition primer to the surface, it can be adhered over old ceramic or granite without demolition.
Is the glossy surface resistant to scratches?
Porcelain slabs have very high surface hardness thanks to industrial firing. Compared to natural quartzites and marbles, they are much more resistant to scratches during daily contact and cleaning.
