A key to numerous architectural projects, whether residential, commercial, public or industrial, high-tech ceramic is widely appreciated for a number of reasons, both technical and aesthetic.Technical qualities include resistance, easy cleaning, safety and inalterability over the years, a set of qualities that make these materials perfect for large and small outdoor areas as well as major renovation projects.Their aesthetic performance includes the many effects, colours and perfect reproductions of the principal natural materials, as will be apparent in the gallery of brandsin the Iris Ceramica Group, world leaders in the field of Italian designed and made ceramics.

The Iris Ceramica Groups innovation and technical development include not only design but production and distribution of top quality ceramic products and customised accessories.In addition to aesthetic and technical aspects, beginning with careful selection of raw materials and continuing throughout the entire production process, special attention has been paid in recent years to development of different slab sizes.In the past the choice was limited to the traditional tile sizes which are still in use and available on the market. But the evolution of architecture and of demand for public and private construction projects demanded a range of different sizes in addition to the traditional ones, relaunching the sector and offering new potential for architects.

FMG Maxfine slabs measure up to 320x160 cm, with a reduced thickness of only 6 mm, permitting original continuity among spaces, a drastic reduction of visual obstacles and interruptions, easier cleaning and brighter spaces.

These factors add to a number of known and certified qualities of FMG porcelain, compactness, homogeneity, impermeability, as well as resistance to wear, temperature excursions, build-up and stains.

The Maxfine catalogue offers 87 different colours and types of surface to meet all the requirements of everyday living.
