The Selene and Materia collections for projects with a timeless, modern appeal

For this edition and new season, Gres Aragón has launched two new high-performance collections specially designed for outdoor use. The Selene and Materia collections feature 60x120cm rectified porcelain floor tiles and 120cm step tiles.

Both collections also include a wide range of special tiles, a hallmark of the company that sets products by Gres Aragón apart. These special tiles can be used to round off certain finer details and to meet specific design needs, ensuring visual harmony. As well as the step tiles mentioned above, the special tiles include side caps and skirtings for steps, and skirting tiles.

Selene is a cement-effect tile collection in shades of white, cream and mocha, while Materia reproduces natural stone streaked with subtle grey and ivory veins.

The two collections are designed for outdoor use due to their high-performance technical properties and non-slip grip. They are perfect for terraces, gardens, stairs and poolside areas. Thanks to the timeless neutral appeal of their designs, they guarantee visual continuity between indoor and outdoor areas of the home.

Urban20mm: suitable for raised-access floor systems and wheeled traffic

At CERSAIE, visitors will be able to see the Urban20mmn collection: 20mm-thick porcelain tiles whose thickness makes them highly resistant and suitable for a myriad of uses. The tiles come in a 60x60cm format in a range of whites, greys and beiges.

Urban20mm can be used indoors or out, in raised-access floor systems, or laid directly on top of grass, sand or gravel. The collection is so resistant that it can withstand wheeled traffic when it is bonded with adhesive or cement-based adhesive. Urban20mm is perfect for terraces, parks, swimming pools, beachside areas and even parking areas for cars. Because it comes with Bioklinker, Gres Aragón’s antibacterial treatment, the collection offers superior hygiene guarantees.

Faveker: 40% energy savings and 100% recyclable solutions

During CERSAIE, Faveker will be displaying its latest solutions in energy-efficient ventilated façades clad with extruded ceramic tiles. These façade systems, perfect for newbuilds or refurbishment projects, allow for energy savings of up to 40%. In addition to the thermal insulation and highperformance properties of Faveker’s façades, they also stand out for their 48% recycled content. What is more, the façade systems can be fully recycled, a key factor in circular economy building criteria.

The company’s extruded tile plant: zero waste and a 3,500-tonne yearly drop in CO₂ emissions

The plant is designed to produce zero waste in keeping with circular economy, energy saving and high-efficiency criteria. It has also led to a 3,500-tonne yearly reduction in CO₂ emissions, helping to care very efficiently for the environment.
