Kerlite Tiles by Cotto d'Este Range

It is the first dry laying installation system without the use of adhesives certified with Kerlite, superior quality ultra-thin ceramic slabs. With a thickness of only 7 mm, this system is used for the installation of a new kind of highly durable porcelain stoneware flooring that is perfect for interior residential or light commercial use. 

It is possible to renovate without demolishing as it can be laid on pre-existing floors. Kerlite is unique because it uses a
high-performance product: laminated porcelain stoneware Kerlite slabs, exactly as they are when they exit the production line. This means no subsequent processing and the guarantee of a quality manufacturing process tested by Cotto d’Este in over 15 years of experience and with millions of square meters sold worldwide.

A unique material with high sustainability due to less use of raw materials and minor environmental impacts in the production and transportation cycle and the many possibilities of application: not only floor coverings but also furniture, complements, kitchens and worktops, ventilated walls, galleries and large works.
