Residential Advantages
As most designers, architects and residential consumers have come to know, natural marble is a beautiful and desirable product, yet its inherent instability and color variation make it difficult to incorporate into any project. Portofino bridges the gap between nature and technology by maintaining the look and feel of marble while eliminating many issues typically found with natural stone. Portofino offers the residential consumer an affordable alternative to natural stone, while maintaining a greater level of color consistency and strength. Portofino makes it easy to match countertop slab material with floor tiles and mosaics offering uniformity to the finished space while providing the level of beauty and aesthetics only found in natural stone.
Commercial Advantages
Portofino is one of the most functional and practical building materials available in today’s market. The natural marble is mixed with thermoset polyester resin in a high-pressure environment. The resulting precast material is ideally suited to interior commercial environments such as flooring, wall cladding, transaction tops, bathroom dividers, vanity tops and even stair treads and risers. In slab form, Portofino delivers all the esthetics of natural stone while the polymer matrix allows the slab to be shipped, fabricated and installed in ways never before possible with certain delicate natural marble slabs. This combination of beauty and durability makes Portofino a perfect choice for multiple unit fabrication of vanity tops and furniture in a variety of areas, including the hospitality and healthcare markets.
Engineered marble is a stunning and cost-effective alternative to natural marble slabs and tiles. Engineered marble from Verona Marble Company is made from select marble aggregate (95%) and filler in a special polyester thermal set resin binder.
