Fiandre, part of the Iris Ceramica Group, launches Il Veneziano, a through-body Terrazzo-style porcelain. They also released new polished Italian marble looks in the Maximum Marmi range, their premium Italian porcelain selection of large format panels: Marbre de Savoie, Deep Emperador, Ethereal Travertino, and Finest Estremoz.  Ariostea’s Marmi Classici collection of marble effect porcelain floor and wall coverings features new polished colors: Crystal Dark, Crystal Grey and Crystal Sky, also available in large format. Debuting for the first time in the U.S., these new high tech architectural surfaces include the latest in Fiandre’s advanced technology and manufacturing capabilities and years of continuous research.

Following in the footsteps of this quintessential terrazzo trend, Il Veneziano echoes the traditions of age-old, artisan craftsmanship. In full-body ceramics, classical terrazzo tiles deliver tremendous architectural impact. Introduced into contemporary projects, Il Veneziano is a luxurious tribute to the 15th century palaces overlooking the Venetian Lagoon.

Il Veneziano full-body porcelain tiles retain their aesthetic and physical qualities: effortless manufacturing, twofold natural or polished finish, five sizes in 6 colors and 10 millimeter thickness. Opening up a future of multi-level projects and unprecedented creative design, Il Veneziano also offers designers freedom to customize colors and sizes. Designers may select background tone, color flecks  and format size providing a sophisticated, successful medium for artistic expression.

Maximum Marmi’s large format 120”x60” tiles allow large areas to be covered with a uniform cladding that further enhances the beauty of rooms, while the sub-formats offer the designer flexibility of application. The thickness of just 6 mm allows bespoke architectural elements and refined furnishing accessories to be designed, including stairs, doors, consoles, seats, tables and lamps that embellish interiors, creating total look environments.

The new collections are now available for the U.S. market through the Fiandre Group’s own distributors, Transceramica and EuroWest as well as through its nationwide network of distributors. The sleek styles and surface solutions are engineered for both commercial and contemporary residential projects. The porcelain products will also soon be on display in Fiandre’s Chicago and NY showrooms.  For more information, visit www.transceramica.com or www.eurowest.com or www.granitifiandre.com
