Description
Stontech 1.0 is a series of through-body porcelain tiles,
manufactured by Floor Gres, one of the leading Italian porcelain
manufacturers. The series features a collection of eighteen
carefully reproduced sophisticated natural stones.
Many of these stones would normally be highly porous or have wide
natural color and graining variation, but can be controlled
through the manmade porcelain manufacturing process.

Standard nominal sizes are 2"x16" (5x40 cm), 4"x24" (10x60 cm),
