Available at Hafary, Florim’s versatile large-format slabs make ideal kitchen countertops
Kitchen islands are a mainstay of the modern culinary space, offering expansive room for food preparation and meals as traditional culinary zones evolve to become the new social hotspots. Besides good looks and durability, versatility and ease of maintenance are vital qualities to consider when deciding on which material to choose for the countertop. Available at Hafary, the revolutionary large-format porcelain slabs from Florim Stone—the eponymous tile brand from Italian manufacturer Florim—are among the top picks for the kitchen.
With a wealth of options in various patterns and colours, these surfaces from Florim Stone may be used for the flooring and walls of your home; they can also increase the functionality and style quotient of your kitchen when employed as countertops. The large-format porcelain slabs measure 3.2 by
1.6m each, and are available at Hafary in 12mm thickness.
Comprising a natural blend of clays and mineral colours, each slab is mat-mounted with fibreglass for additional durability, and is also completely waterproof, hygienic and easy to clean.
Homeowners can pick from solid-coloured slabs as well as marble-like options to suit any design aesthetic. All of these slabs are certified by Greenguard and the NSF (National Sanitation Foundation in Italy) to have low chemical emissions and be safe in direct contact with food. Given their longevity and strength as well as stain and heat resistance, these slabs will last for years to come and add a touch of elegance to any interior scheme.
