Calacatta marble, one of the world’s most coveted stones, has long defined quiet luxury with its rich cream base and striking, organic veining in hues of honey, grey, taupe and gold. Naturally unique and never mass produced, it reflects authenticity, timeless pedigree, soft luminosity and restrained, enduring elegance.
This is the inspiration behind Layani Natural 1200×2800, by Spanish tile masters STN Ceràmica. This magnificent, rich cream marble-look porcelain slab with its masterful interpretation of Calacatta veining, is designed to elevate spaces with subtle sophistication and unassuming luxury.
Layani Natural 1200×2800 is a rectified slab, which means it offers precise, machine-cut edges. This ensures that all tiles have exactly the same dimensions with consistently straight edges, which, together with Layani Natural’s monumental proportions, allows for minimal grout lines, and a resultant seamless and sophisticated appearance.
Layani Natural has a PEI rating of 4, which means the tile is suitable for moderate to heavy foot traffic. This make it the ideal choice for all residential areas and medium use commercial spaces, thanks to excellent durability against abrasion and wear.
Italtile does, however, recommend the installation of dirt traps at entrances, to mitigate the effect of grit on the high gloss surfaces.
Layani Natural has four faces, which refers to the level of graphic differentiation from tile to tile. Three faces will offer sufficient visual variety to ensure little similarity when installed.
STN Ceràmica is known for advanced digital printing technology, but also for their sustainable processes, which include water recycling and reuse of production waste. The factories are compliant with the highest environmental management standards set down by the EU.
Layani Natural 1200×2800 gloss rectified porcelain slab is an eco-chic investment that carries Italtile’s LiveGreen label and is exclusive to Italtile.
