Ideal for easily creating tailored and distinctive landscapes thanks to the five available colors, Hexagon is designed to adapt to any type of garden. The ease and speed of installation are also added values to what in itself is already an unprecedented product, anti-slip, easy to clean, and resistant to stains, mold and temperature changes.
Stepping - stone is another line of walkways for outdoor spaces with a strong aesthetic impact, ideal for creating modern paths that give a distinctive trait to the garden.
It is the ideal product for architects of exterior design thanks to its many technical aspects, resistance and performance, guaranteed by porcelain stoneware in the thickness of 20 mm, and combined with the beauty of various surfaces faithful to natural stone and wood.

Why is it important for you to do business in the region?

The Middle East is the ideal area for our products because they are durable and resistant. The country's climate is perfectly adequate for the durability of the product.
