July 9, 2025

Xlight surfaces and tiles by Porcelanosa recreate the authentic beauty of cement, marble, stone, wood, and metal through cutting-edge porcelain technology. This premium large-format tile collection delivers quality and seamless visual continuity, elevating the aesthetics of any environment. Available in four finishes—polished, silk, textured, and natural—Xlight offers unlimited design possibilities for walls, floors, and facades.

Santorini: Urban Concrete Reimagined

Xlight Santorini captures the essence of modern urban architecture. This large-format series combines concrete's inherent strength and minimalism with refined elegance, bringing sophisticated warmth to contemporary spaces. Each piece authentically reproduces concrete's texture and cool tones while incorporating subtle detailing that softens its industrial edge, creating perfect harmony between urban grit and refined luxury.

Taranto: Travertine's Timeless Appeal

Xlight Taranto reimagines the enduring beauty of travertine through advanced porcelain technology, delivering natural stone's organic warmth with modern performance precision. Subtle color variations authentically capture travertine's characteristic depth, while the lightweight composition ensures versatility across applications. Available in four elegant shades—Bianco, Bone, Gold, and Marfil—Taranto offers flexible formatting with 59.6 cm x 150 cm wall tiles and 59.6 cm x 120 cm floor options.

The collection features five distinctive decorative wall treatments that add dimensional interest:

  • Canal: Graceful convex waves create dynamic light interaction
  • Deco: Sophisticated concave striping adds refined depth
  • Line: Clean parallel grooves deliver minimalist precision
  • Fiume: Gentle horizontal waves evoke natural water flow
  • Stripe: Narrow linear details visually expand spatial boundaries

Nuit: Dramatic Marble Sophistication

Xlight Nuit channels dark marble's inherent elegance with contemporary sensibility. Deep charcoal surfaces are traced with delicate white and grey veining, creating a dramatic contrast that speaks to quiet luxury. Its polished aesthetic and lightweight composition make Nuit exceptionally versatile for walls, floors, and large-scale installations, bringing depth, mood, and modern refinement to any environment.

Saddle: Stone's Natural Evolution

The Saddle collection captures stone's timeless essence through exclusive Eclipse technology, incorporating relief effects that intensify surface realism. Available in Caliza and Topo finishes with versatile 120x120 cm and 120x59.6 cm flooring formats, Saddle includes anti-slip versions for exterior applications, ensuring seamless visual continuity between interior and outdoor spaces.

The series expands with three complementary 45x120 cm ceramic wall tile models:

  • Saddle: Textured surfaces enhance natural stone authenticity
  • Coin Saddle: Organic intermittent striations create spatial dynamism
  • Neo Saddle: Contemporary herringbone patterns add artistic sophistication
