Saxum: sensual beauty in porcelain stoneware
Inspired by the sun, sculpted by the wind and shaped by the water. A porcelain tile collection that embodies ancient memories, weaving them together into a new material language that brings surfaces to life. Random veining, delicate earthy and sandy shades, greys and neutral hues and tones with a modern, natural design blend with the imperfections left by the passage of time, revealing all the charm of a material that has accompanied humankind through the ages. 
These modern tiles combine the ancient beauty of stone with the impressive qualities of porcelain stoneware, for a versatile collection that highlights the pleasing texture of the material of inspiration.
Saxum is available in five colours (Antracite, Beige, Bianco, Grigio and Perla), with a thickness of 9 mm in the sizes 120x120 cm and 60x120 cm, and with an R10 natural surface, or a silk surface for a pleasant aged effect.

Elements: for versatile layouts and new creative influences
Versatile and offering a range of customisation options, the new Elements collection features ceramic surfaces on which minimalist urban style meets warm, inviting wood, for enchantingly creative tile compositions. In this porcelain stoneware collection, three different types of textures can be merged and combined into contrasting or colour matched ton sur ton surfaces, for coordinated settings and smooth shifts between rooms, or to separate different functional areas, both indoors and outdoors.
Modern, eclectic and suitable for floors, walls and furnishings in all kinds of architectural settings, Elements features three different types of textures – from the exquisite wood effect of Essence to the subtle interplay of solids and voids evident in Pebbles and the soft brushed look and delicate cloudy effects of Texture.

Essence: new lustre for porcelain stoneware
Sophisticated material and technological innovation deliver a perfect blend of patterns and textures, redefining the very concept of wood-effect surfaces. The warm beauty of larch, a wood widely used in traditional alpine architecture, embodies the endless variation of the most natural material of all. In each unique tile, every detail and subtle shift of colour fine-tunes the design, combining with technical performance to shape endless creative options and interesting décor solutions. Essence is a versatile collection that blends effortlessly with any style, from traditional country looks to modern, contemporary interiors. Ideal for both floors and walls and for use indoors and outdoors, it slots smoothly into any contemporary living space.

In the colours Beige, Taupe and Tobacco, the tiles are available in a 40x120 cm format with a thickness of 20 mm and an anti-slip surface designed for use outdoors.
With their anti-slip finish and 20 mm thickness, these large-format tiles are perfect for outdoor use. Laid on screed with adhesive, they are ideal for balconies, patios, terraces, verandas, and poolsides. Applied directly to turf, gravel, or sand, they create walkways ready to walk on immediately. This on-trend collection is great for seamless indoor-to-outdoor looks. If you’re looking for practical, coordinated décor solutions and year-round comfort for living spaces, Essence delivers in every season.

In the 60x120 cm tile format, the new collection also offers a Canneté option. This splendid slatted wood effect is ideal for walls, creating a delightful 3D texture that complements furnishings. Use it to shape a sophisticated ambience with an elegant allure.

Pebbles: the modern elegance of porcelain stoneware
The hallmark feature of Pebbles is the random combination of pebbles and stones with different sizes and textures, which come together on the tiles to create a richly detailed pattern with a modern, sophisticated design. With a perfect balance of simple colours and casually arranged elements, no two tiles are ever alike. These new ceramic surfaces respond perfectly to contemporary interior design requirements, offering architects and designers versatile, inspiring solutions for all kinds of settings.
Ideal for both indoor and outdoor floors and walls, you can also use these tiles for all sorts of décor elements, such as worktops, dividing walls, frames and accent features.
