Dark, sophisticated and dramatically stylish; introducing Laurent Black, the latest addition to the Ceralsio ceramic surface range from CRL Stone. This visually striking addition offers a striking black marble appearance that does not compromise on durability.
Laurent Black features a rich black background adorned with bold orange veining, instantly capturing attention and adding a touch of sophistication to any space. This exquisite surface is ideal for homeowners and designers seeking a statement piece that enhances the aesthetic appeal of kitchens, bathrooms, and more.
Ceralsio is renowned for its hardwearing and versatile qualities, engineered to meet the demands of contemporary living. Laurent Black upholds this tradition with features that make it the perfect choice for various applications. Its heat resistance makes it ideal for kitchen countertops, as it can withstand high temperatures without damage. Its wear and tear resistance makes it perfect for high-traffic areas, maintaining its beauty even under constant use.
The UV resistance of Laurent Black makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, ensuring the surface remains vibrant and untarnished by sunlight. Additionally, its impenetrable surface makes it completely impermeable, resistant to stains, and easy to clean.
Available in over 20 finishes and in thicknesses of 6mm, 12mm, and 20mm, the Ceralsio range offers endless design possibilities. Laurent Black can be used for a variety of applications, including kitchen islands, creating a dramatic centrepiece that combines functionality with stunning visual appeal. It is also perfect for feature walls, adding a sophisticated touch to living spaces and making a bold statement.
Respond to the trend for bookmatched surfaces in kitchen design with Larsen, a new MDi surface, produced exclusively for CRL Stone by Inalco.
Inspired by the beauty of marble, yet suitable for even the busiest of kitchens, Larsen draws the eye with its beautiful, bold patterning yet exudes a timeless elegance that enables the surface to integrate seamlessly into any setting.
With full digital technology used throughout the manufacturing process, total control of the end design is ensured, with an amazing definition and a luxuriously smooth feel. Using 360° design, the inner core and outer surface are fully integrated to ensure visual continuity between the two.
The qualities of MDi that result from its manufacture are already well-known to CRL Stone customers: water, heat, scratch and stain resistant, non-porous, UV resistant, high durability. In fact, all the advantages that make the surface so suitable for use in the kitchen, bathroom and even outside.
Style-wise, creating a monochrome effect in the modern home is just one of the many design possibilities with Larsen, where an intense white background meets its match with the deep, bold contrasting veining that looks its absolute best when used over large areas, including worktops and splashbacks. Combine with similar light tones to keep things simple or move up a gear and elevate the room’s design to a new level with contrasting shades.
A stunning option in both contemporary and more traditional settings, bookmatched Larsen boasts a luxurious natural finish with a 20mm thickness. Larsen is also available in 4, 6 and 12mm thicknesses in a natural and honed finish.
