The Italian ceramic industry is staking new ground in North America as Ceramics of Italy prepares for its debut appearance at the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) in Las Vegas from February 25-27, 2025. The organization will bring 15 premier Italian ceramic manufacturers to the Las Vegas Convention Center's North Hall, following successful showings at Cersaie in Bologna and BDNY in New York.

The Italian pavilion will showcase the latest innovations in ceramic and porcelain tile design, with products ranging from traditional brick formats to contemporary large-format slabs. Visitors can expect to see versatile applications for kitchen and bath surfaces, including countertops, backsplashes, flooring, and even prefabricated bath furnishings.

Design trends on display will reflect 2025 color forecasts, featuring water-inspired blues and warm harvest tones that align with Pantone's "Mocha Mousse" Color of the Year. The collections will also emphasize tactile surfaces that celebrate traditional craftsmanship through modern technology, alongside 3D fluted designs and reimagined interpretations of classic stone, marble, and terrazzo patterns.

Featured manufacturers include industry leaders such as FAP Ceramiche, Casalgrande Padana, and Cooperativa Ceramica d'Imola, among others. Representatives from Ceramics of Italy, Confindustria Ceramica, and the Italian Trade Agency will be available at booth #N1044 to discuss trends and highlight the Italian ceramic sector's innovations.
