The beauty of white marble has an undeniable allure. Its sleek design makes it a perfect choice for bathrooms, countertops, floors, walls, and even exterior applications. Now, the Spanish ceramic tile industry has combined high-tech digital printing and purity of pigment with durable, low-maintenance and easy-to-install ceramics – making this precious aesthetic more widely available, affordable and practical.

In nature, marble is created when natural limestone undergoes heat and pressure during metamorphism. This process creates beautiful soft designs in a variety of ecological colors, which are carefully mimicked in Tile of Spain manufacturers’ porcelain ceramic designs.

Unlike natural marble, porcelain ceramic requires much less maintenance and can be used in high-traffic areas. With Tile of Spain manufacturers’ book matching is easier than ever thanks to innovative slim-profile and large-format technical porcelain. Marble effects are also offered in anti-slip finishes, and with unique 3D elements and recycled glass mosaics.
