New 120×120 format
We enjoy being the trendsetters with our unique materials, bold combinations, and meticulous attention to detail — all hallmarks of Italon’s signature style. Surveying the construction and finishing materials market, we have noticed a growing interest in larger product formats over the past six years.
Sizes like 60×60 cm and 60×120 cm have now become the norm. Larger maxi-formats, over two meters in size, are becoming more common in finishing, but their installation demands great effort, complex techniques, special equipment, and expertise.
The 80×80 cm and 80×160 cm formats offer a great visual impact, showcase the material’s potential well, and are easier to install than maxi formats, which makes them a worthy alternative. We have expanded this line of practical, highly elegant formats by introducing a new one: 120×120 cm! This size is available not only in the new Spring 2024 Stellaris series but also in our bestsellers: Millennium, Continuum, and Metropolis.
Which collections feature 120×120 large-format porcelain stoneware?
Stellaris: Statuario White, Calacatta Gold, and Tuscania Gray
Continuum: Polar, Silver, and Petrol
Metropolis: Royal Ivory, Absolute Silver, and Imperial Black
Millennium: Pure, Silver, Iron, and Black
All of them are available exclusively with a natural surface and 9 mm thickness.
What are the new format’s advantages?
- It showcases the material’s graphics better. Materials like concrete, marble, and stone feel much more striking with a larger tile surface.
- It’s a very popular format in the ceramics market, mirroring the ever-changing architectural trends.
- The large format, coupled with minimal joints (as low as 1.5 mm), visually expands the space and creates a more coherent look.
- This format also makes tile installation quicker.
- Joints tend to attract dirt and are more challenging to keep clean, so with fewer of them, the tiled surface looks tidier.
The new 120×120 cm format is a unique tool for implementing your stylish, contemporary projects.
