Krion™ Antico Bianco

The TERRAZZOS series, in particular Krion™ Antico Bianco, is a new collection by KRION™ PORCELANOSA Solid Surface that commemorates the mid 15th century emerging trend in Venice for leftover pieces of marble to be re-used to make a cement-bonded composite that would become known as terrazzo, the building material emulated by this series.

It is similar to original terrazzo tiles in its design, re-used content, the depth of its pattern, and its composition, since this is also a through-body material and hence its surface can be renewed if necessary. Compared with original terrazzo tiles, its key advantage lies in the fact that it boasts all the fundamental characteristics of KRION™, such as a high bending strength (with a high resistance to impacts), zero porosity, 12 mm thickness rather than terrazzo’s 20 mm, the possibility of seamless joins and the ease with which it can be fabricated.

The main goal in the development of this new series was to ensure a carefully refined end appearance that blends in easily with other in-vogue materials, metals or woods. Emphasis was also placed on the re-use of materials from its own production cycle.

What is Krion™ Antico Bianco?

It is a material that is warm to the touch and similar to natural stone. It is made of two-thirds natural minerals (ATH – Alumina Trihydrate) and a low percentage of high-resistance resins. This composition gives Krion™ Antico Bianco a number of exclusive features: it does not have any pores, it is anti-bacterial without any type of additive, it is hard-wearing, highly resistant and easy to repair, only requires minimum maintenance and is easy to clean.

It is cut in a similar way to wood, allowing us to cut the sheets, connect them and thermoform them to create curved sections, and can even be injected during the production process, making it possible to create different designs and projects that are impossible to achieve with other materials.

Seamless sections can be created, preventing liquids from being absorbed and making cleaning and maintenance easier.

We offer a wide range of colours, including a white finish that stands out for its purity and neutrality in comparison with other similar material.

It is an ecological material, as it is 100% recyclable. All products made of Krion™ Antico Bianco can be reprocessed and reused in the production cycle.
