This section gathers the best technological materials for contemporary design, selected for their high technical quality and visual impact. The content includes products in compact, laminated, mineral, or hybrid material, used in high-traffic environments, public spaces, retail, healthcare and hospitality. The data sheets delve into performance, finishes, physical-mechanical properties and specific applications. A key resource for those designing with innovation.

Technological material surfaces represent a new frontier in the world of design and interior architecture. These are next-generation materials engineered to offer high technical performance, durability and aesthetic versatility. 
Unlike traditional surfaces, these solutions combine technology, functionality and design, resulting in panels and claddings ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, public and commercial spaces.

Technological material surfaces can be produced with different compositions — compact, laminated, mineral or hybrid material — each with specific characteristics in terms of resistance, appearance and applications.

Types of technological material surfaces

Compact material surfaces

Compact material is a high-density panel obtained by pressing multiple layers of paper or fibers impregnated with thermosetting resins. Thanks to its solid, homogeneous structure, it is resistant to moisture, impact and scratches, making it ideal for kitchen countertops, bathroom countertops, vertical claddings and technical furniture.

Laminated material surfaces

Laminated material is composed of multiple layers of paper or fiber bonded under high pressure and heat, with a decorative surface that ensures excellent mechanical performance. This category includes technical laminates and compact HPL panels, widely used for worktops, partition walls, facades and high-use interior claddings.

Mineral material surfaces

Mineral material surfaces are derived from blends of natural minerals and acrylic or polymeric resins, resulting in non-porous, hygienic and repairable surfaces. They are perfect for kitchen countertops, integrated sinks, reception counters and public environments. They offer a continuous, refined aesthetic, with invisible joints and wide thermoforming possibilities.

Hybrid material surfaces

Hybrid material combines mineral components and advanced resins, offering a balance between natural aesthetics and technical performance. It is an advanced solution that marries the tactile effect of stone or concrete with the strength and lightness of composite materials. Perfect for design surfaces, vertical claddings, worktops and contemporary furniture components.

Applications of technological material surfaces

Technological material surfaces stand out for their wide adaptability:

• Indoors: ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, living areas and commercial spaces.
• Outdoors: perfect for ventilated facades and durable architectural claddings.
• In the contract sector: used in hotels, restaurants, showrooms and public spaces for their antibacterial, hygienic and long-lasting properties.
• In technical settings: suitable for laboratories, hospitals, schools and offices, thanks to ease of cleaning and chemical resistance.

Advantages of technological material surfaces

Choosing surfaces in compact, laminated, mineral or hybrid material means gaining numerous advantages:

• Resistance to impacts, scratches, heat and moisture.
• Hygiene and a non-porous surface.
• Durability and dimensional stability.
• Wide aesthetic freedom, with wood-, stone- or concrete-effect finishes.
• Sustainability, thanks to controlled production processes and recyclable materials.

Technological material surfaces: conclusions

Technological material surfaces represent a perfect synthesis of innovation, aesthetics and functionality. Compact, laminated, mineral and hybrid materials allow the creation of furniture, kitchen countertops, claddings and architectural surfaces of the highest level, suitable for interior design, residential, commercial and contract projects. 
Thanks to their technical performance and contemporary design, these surfaces stand out as one of the most advanced and versatile choices in the field of furnishings and architecture materials.
