Supreme: the natural shine of salt crystals
Supreme tiles result from Casalgrande Padana’s research. They draw inspiration from rock salt crystallisation, replicating its colours, texture, and shine. Nature’s precious masterpieces from sedimentary rocks from around the world are recreated in the porcelain stoneware tiles from the new Supreme collection. A fascinating journey to the centre of the earth to discover the colours and tactile features of rock crystal, an element used since ancient times for its many benefits.

Timeless porcelain stoneware tiles: a modern classic
The past and the future merge to create the new Timeless collection. These tiles give a modern twist to full-body porcelain stoneware, the ageless material that has made Casalgrande Padana’s history.Timeless tiles stand out for their neutral colours, delicate light accents and nuvolato effects, the tactile evenness of their surface, and concrete’s typical trowel effect.
This new collection comes in five colours (Charcoal, Ice, Seal, Taupe, and Thunder), three formats (30×60 cm, 60×60 cm, and 60×120 cm), three finishes (natural, polished, and bushhammered), and a 9.4 mm thickness, except for the 60×60 cm format with a natural finish, which is 14 mm thick.
These tiles are made of innovative double-charge porcelain stoneware with atomised and micronised powders. This way, they mimic concrete’s colour combinations, expanding their scope of application. Timeless tiles ensure a consistent surface and body structure as the colour runs throughout the tile. So, for example, if you removed the superficial layer, you’d discover an identical surface underneath without affecting the tiles’ aesthetics and functionality. Moreover, these tiles withstand significant static and dynamic loads, foot traffic, and continuous vibrations. In addition, Timeless tiles are not affected by moisture, frost, fire, or abnormal temperature fluctuations. As a result, they’re ideal for commercial, industrial, and public places, such as airports, shopping centres, workshops, hospitals, food preparation, chemical and pharmaceutical laboratories, schools, showrooms, stations, supermarkets, offices, and more. But there’s more. The anti-slip finish helps reduce the risk of slipping, making the floors safer.
Terrazzotech: Casalgrande Padana’s new porcelain stoneware tile collection for public and commercial spaces
Casalgrande Padana’s research and experimentation, cutting-edge production process, and technical expertise acquired in its 60 years in the business have led to the creation of Terrazzotech. This new collection for public and commercial spaces has outstanding functionality and mechanical properties. Terrazzotech tiles give a modern twist to Venetian terrazzo floors, one of the most original and renowned Italian creations with centuries of history.
This new collection comes in six colours (Tech Antracite, Argento, Beige, Bianco, Grigio, and Nero), three finishes (natural, polished, and anti-slip bushhammered), three sizes (30×60, 60×60, and 60×120 cm). The tiles are 9.4 mm thick, but the 60×60 cm format with a natural finish is 14 mm thick. The overall pattern is a modern and dynamic jigsaw puzzle created by chips in various shapes and sizes added to the porcelain stoneware mixture.
These double-charge porcelain stoneware with atomised and micronised powders are incredibly wear-resistant. That’s why the Terrazzotech collection is perfect for the floors and walls of public and commercial spaces particularly exposed to stress and wear. It’s also ideal for industrial spaces, such as chemical laboratories requiring chemical and corrosion resistance, and the pharmaceutical and food sectors, which must comply with stringent hygiene standards.
Terrazzotech is a collection of full-body tiles, which means that the colour runs throughout the tile, ensuring a consistent surface and body structure. So, for example, if you removed the superficial layer, you’d discover an identical surface underneath without affecting the tiles’ aesthetics and functionality. What’s more, Terrazzotech porcelain stoneware tiles don’t fear moisture, frost, fire, or abnormal temperature fluctuations, making them ideal for commercial, industrial, and public places subject to significant stress. Examples include airports, shopping centres, workshops, hospitals, food preparation, chemical and pharmaceutical laboratories, schools, showrooms, stations, supermarkets, and offices. In addition, the anti-slip Grip finish helps reduce the risk of slipping, making the floors safer.
Casalgrande Padana porcelain stoneware tiles are made solely with natural raw materials through a closed-cycle manufacturing process where sophisticated antipollution equipment allows all the components to be recycled and reused with substantially zero emissions or dispersions. Moreover, all Casalgrande Padana porcelain stoneware tiles are environmentally sustainable, non-allergenic, and antibacterial, thanks to the Bios Antibacterial® technology (available upon request). In addition, they are fire-resistant, easy to lay and clean, hard-wearing, non-absorbent, and feature excellent flexural strength. Their exceptional mechanical strength maintains all their features unchanged over time. As a result, these wood-effect tiles are not affected by temperature fluctuations, whatever the latitude, and never warp. What’s more, porcelain stoneware features high transmittance and thermal conductivity, making it one of the best choices in the event of underfloor heating. Underfloor heating has many advantages and not just from an aesthetic point of view. For example, it spreads heat evenly in all the rooms of the house, preventing mould formation. It also allows for significant energy savings as it integrates into other systems that use renewable and sustainable energy.
