Porcelain stoneware coatings with high technical performance

The Floor Gres catalogue includes a range of porcelain stoneware coatings with high technical performance, available in a variety of formats and finishes. The Magnum Oversize range offers very large plates, up to 160cm x 320cm, and with a thickness of only 6mm, suitable for indoor and outdoor use. The slabs can be cut in any shape and size, and are suitable for laying both on the floor and on the wall. The Buildtech collection represents the basic range, able to offer solutions all round, thanks to the variety of sizes and thicknesses, and the offer of modules such as strips, wall modules and mosaics. Available colors range from 12 shades for cement-effect surfaces to 10 intense Colour variants for ceramic-effect surfaces. The Flowtech collection is inspired by metal surfaces coated by time and wear, for environments with an industrial mood, and is available in three finishes: aged bronze, burnished and Russet. The Industrial collection is a real program that offers a choice of neutral and linear surfaces in a wide range of colors, decors, modular sizes, finishes and thicknesses. The slabs of the Industrial collection are suitable for countless applications, from external walls and facades to indoor and outdoor flooring and wall coverings and decorations. The Rawtech collection is inspired by the surfaces of raw cement, experienced and worn out by the time, where imperfections give a strong aesthetic connotation. Available colors are 4, from the sought-after Raw-white to the rustic Raw-mud to the most neutral Raw-dust and Raw-coal. The Stontech collection re-proposes natural stone surfaces, ranging from the timeless refinement of polished marbles to the sober elegance of stone in natural or canneté finishes, a workmanship that gives the surface an irregular texture. Marble is also the protagonist of the B&W Marble collection, inspired by the characteristic veins of marble, available in a rigorous palette limited to black and white.
