Ossido Verderame 12mm+ Matte

Kirjeldus

The Ossido line stems from a wager against time, in an attempt to crystallise a material at a specific point in its life and have it stay that way forever. Specifically, it entails the reproduction of a oxidation process on slabs of copper and metal, which generates a very strong and rich colour, yet which inevitably disappears as the oxidation process progresses.

The challenge faced by Laminam was in fact to capture the moment of maximum splendour of the colour onto the surfaces, simulating the effects of atmospheric agents. It is a line where the fundamental role is played by light, which always generates new reflections and new variations in colour.

The particular aesthetics of Ossido make it especially suitable for use in interior furnishings and items of interior décor. With the two variants, Ossido nero (black) and bruno (brown), contrasts packed with personality and textured structure can be generated. A genuine combination of art and technology.

Finish description

The popular honed/matte finish is sturdy, reliable and elegant. It is smooth and pleasant to the eye and touch, while showing little reflection.

Technical information

All the surfaces in the Ossido series are distinguished by the technical excellence of Laminam; they are resistant to impact, stains and scratches.

The versatility of ceramic means the surfaces retain their specifications even when they are exposed to heat, frost and UV rays, with an average water absorption of 0.1%.

Ossido is a totally natural product that is entirely food-safe because it does not release elements in a solution (even in the event of a fire) and does not allow mould and mildew to form.

Brand information

Surfaces inspired by nature, which go beyond nature. Laminam® produces ceramic slabs which challenge the traditional uses of this material, creating large sized minimum thickness surfaces, which are used in exterior architecture, interior design and furnishings. Find out more about Laminam® here.

Hydrotect® treatment

Materials with the Hydrotect® treatment (developed by Toto® for Laminam®) possess unique antibacterial, self-cleaning, air purification and odour-removing properties owing to their composition. The presence of titanium oxide catalyses the creation of active oxygen on the surface (especially in presence of light). Active oxygen breaks down bacteria and odour-causing organic molecules, as well as neutralizes toxic air pollutants. The hydrophilic properties of Hydrotect® cause a thin water layer to form on the surface after exposure to water, which detaches dirt on external facades during rain and makes cleaning internal surfaces that much easier.

NB! Hydrotect® treatment is only available for orders of over 100 m² at the additional cost of 8 EUR/m².
