Slavonia wood-effect tiles by Casalgrande Padana for spaces full of charm

Slavonia, Casalgrande Padana’s new wood-effect porcelain stoneware tile collection, mimics oak’s warm shades and delicate veining.

Casalgrande Padana’s research and experimentation with the world’s finest types of wood have led to the creation of Slavonia, the wood-effect collection perfect for creating cosy and elegant spaces full of oak’s natural charm.

The new Slavonia collection comes in six shades (Slavonia Beige, Miele, Noce, Panna, Terra, and Tortora) and two sizes (20x120 and 40x120 cm), thicknesses (9 and 20 mm), and finishes (natural and Grip). The delicate oak-effect veining emphasised by the large-format tiles and the anti-slip Grip finish (available in both sizes and thicknesses) makes them perfect for outdoor use. Laid on screed, they make stunning patios, terraces, verandas, and poolsides; applied directly to sand, gravel or turf, they create walkways you can walk on right away.

Slavonia wood-like tiles combine the beauty of wood and the technical features of porcelain stoneware. As a result, they’re hypoallergenic, antibacterial (thanks to the Bios Antibacterial® technology), frost-resistant, and fire-resistant (they don’t release harmful substances in the event of a fire). In addition, they’re non-absorbent, wear-resistant, easy to lay and clean. They have excellent flexural strength and don’t fear temperature fluctuations. All these features allow them to remain unchanged over time. Bios Antibacterial® is a special silver-based treatment (available upon request) that makes your spaces a haven of health and wellbeing. In fact, it helps remove 99% of the main bacterial strains (Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa) from the tiles’ surface and prevent mould, yeasts, and fungi responsible for bad smell.

Moreover, Slavonia wood-effect floor and wall tiles are incredibly versatile and functional. They’re the perfect solution for new and restored commercial and public buildings and for personalising any room of your home, creating striking uninterrupted surfaces, from the living area to the kitchen and from the bedrooms to the bathroom, extending to the exteriors.

Warm earthy shades inspired by oak’s natural beauty create eye-pleasing colour variations that go perfectly with Casalgrande Padana’s other concrete-effect, marble-effect, metal-effect, stone-effect, and coloured collections, making Slavonia suitable for any style. For example, the lighter shades (Beige, Miele, and Panna) are perfect for Nordic-style or boho settings, while the darker ones (Noce, Terra, and Tortora) are better for classic, more traditional settings.

The delicate veining and time-worn effect of these wood-like porcelain stoneware tiles are the perfect expressions of warmth and cosiness in harmony with nature. So what do country houses, romantic chalets and cottages in jaw-dropping alpine landscapes, and Mediterranean-style houses surrounded by citrus groves overlooking the sea have in common? They all tell the stories of distant memories, between ancient traditions and the unmistakable scent of wood.

And the Slavonia oak-effect collection gives an elegant and refined edge to cosy, essential spaces full of charm.
