Fine porcelain, finesse and gloss.

Q: What are the advantages of fine porcelain over porcelain?

A glossier, finer finish, even lower water absorption and larger formats. Its cost, on the other hand, is higher.

Q: Can fine porcelain be used for a worktop?

Yes, with 6 mm resin-reinforced slabs: they stand up very well to stains and heat. Epoxy grout is essential.

Q: Is fine porcelain suitable for a shower?

Yes, as wall cladding: with water absorption below 0.1%, moisture is no threat to it. For the floor of a walk-in shower, we steer you towards a non-slip porcelain.

Finesse, gloss, thin formats. A premium variant of porcelain, technical fine porcelain offers a finer, glossier finish. It is ideal for statement wall cladding, ceramic worktops and showers.

01 — Technical properties

Technical data for fine porcelain.

With water absorption below 0.1%, it is the least porous material in our selection. Its thin slabs come in very large formats, up to 120×280 cm at 6 mm thick: very few joints and a monolithic look, on a wall or on a worktop.

Large formats forgive no flaws: they call for expert installation and a perfectly flat substrate. Expect a higher cost than standard porcelain, too.

Density: 2.3 g/cm³
PEI rating: III to V
R rating (slip resistance): R9 to R10
Water absorption: < 0.1%
Care: Soapy water, neutral pH.
