Ceramics of Italy Brings 100+ Tile Brands to Orlando for Coverings

Ceramics of Italy will bring one of the largest international contingents to Orlando for Coverings, April 4-7. Organized by Confindustria Ceramica (the Italian Association of Ceramics) with support from the Italian Ministry of Economic Development, the Ceramics of Italy pavilion will feature 76 booths and over 100 brands introducing the latest designs and technical innovations in tile and installation products. Returning for a second year, the Ceramics of Italy will host a central stand, Strada Dinamica, serving as an industry information hub and authentic Italian café.

Strada Dinamica, Italian for “dynamic street” and designed by e+i studio, is modeled after a lively streetscape with landscaped benches, standing communal tables, and two kiosks housing a cafe, coffee bar, and information desk. The space will host lunch with authentic Italian pasta served daily by Ceramics of Italy’s long-running culinary partner, Sputino Catering. Nearly all of the surfaces will be clad in Italian tile, from the thin, large porcelain slabs from Florim’s Magnum Oversize collection covering the benches, tables and countertops to the thick, large-format floor tiles from Lea Ceramiche that are set on a raised flooring system by Newfloor.
