EXTRA

  • EXTRALIGHT

    The slabs are easy to move and
    handle as they are only 6 mm thick,
    ensuring lightness despite
    their large size.

  • EXTRASIZE

    Many sizes, from the largest on the market in 320x160 cm (6 mm thickness) and 324x163 cm (12 mm thickness), up to
    the more traditional 60x60 cm (10 mm thickness), for a complete and versatile project.

  • EXTRASTYLISH

    The ceramic design interprets different inspirations,
    ensuring maximum aesthetic appeal in any type of
    environment and giving each its own style.

  • EXTRADIFFERENT

    The Inkjet ceramic technology allows for any collection and colour,
    a high number of different graphics,
    for an aesthetic effect of the flooring and cladding
    that is always varied and never repetitive.

  • EXTRATAILORED

    It is from large formats that cuts and shapes of all sizes are created, tailor-made to offer new compositional
    opportunities and to expand the areas of use of the slabs: from floors to vertical walls, furniture, tables, worktops, doors
    and the interiors of yachts and cruise ships.
