Cotto D’Este Nuove Superfici

Cotto D’Este means fully body porcelain stoneware floors and walls of superior quality. Our floor and wall tiles maintain the aesthetic features of Cotto, of marble and of the most beautiful stones that nature offers us but have the added value guaranteed by the standards of quality and performance of modern ceramics. This is possible thanks to the use of the latest production technology.  The wide range of sizes, the exclusive finishes, the trim pieces and the colours attest to the original production techniques, which allow for the creation of unique items. The latter are ideal both for refurbishing old buildings and for new constructions of a residential, public and commercial nature.

Kerlite

It’s difficult to imagine a ceramic product that is totally sustainable and that is capable of elevating the quality of porcelain stoneware to levels of excellence. All this in a thickness of only 3 mm. It’s not easy but this material exists. Kerlite, the new laminated stoneware by Cotto D’Este: easier to cut and install, it resists frost and does not absorb odours and liquid, it’s easy to clean and is lighter than ceramic tiles and conventional ceramics. Kerlite, also available in the Plus version, can be installed directly on the former covering, irrespective of whether it is marble, wood, cotto, ceramics or other compact materials. The benefits include not only saving time but also money, because with Kerlite Plus you don’t have to modify doors, there is no dust, no moving expenses, noise and debris disposal. These advantages are priceless.

only criteria of choice. Ceramics aim at integrating with the project since its first stages of development. The external finish of a building does not only define its aesthetic and formal nature. When it comes to ventilated facades, for instance, ceramics protect the building from adverse atmospheric conditions, preserve it over time and insulate it from a thermal and acoustic point of view. Another successful use of ceramics is elevated floors, especially for office buildings. This is the background behind NS Tech, a selection of references and technical solutions that elaborates on the topics of Nuove Superfici, the publication that Cotto d’Este releases every year.
