PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: In mass-dyed gres – a very durable and timeless material (group Bia). Because we use the latest technology, the tiles are extremely durable and resistant to ware and tear, which makes them ideal for use in any type of space. Thanks to the LamGea technology, we were able to obtain a deep tile structure and a perfect mimicry of the natural stone surface with a thickness of only 6mm.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: In mass-dyed, glazed, rectified gres with a structural and polished surface. 5 colour variants: green, amber, black, blue, natural.
Formats: 120 x 280, 120 x 120, 60 x 120. Mat, polished.
Format 120 x 280 with a 6mm thickness and a stone structure deserves special attention. High technical parameters and excellent aesthetics make these tiles very resistant with a low risk of cracking. Tiles are frost-resistant and have anti-slip properties, thanks to which they are suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
