The objectives aimed at could be summarised as the obtaining of a new Porce
lain Stoneware product which, taking into account this material technical a
nd esthetical attributes, emphasises those characteristics in a significant
way, and provides it with new very interesting values. The working lines f
ollowed were focussed on the improvement of the technical qualities inheren
t to Natural Porcelain Stoneware, attributing to it, at the same time, char
acteristics only present, until now, in the polished material. New decorati
ve applications have been also defined which allow the simultaneous compari
son of aesthetic definitions together with a maintenance of its qualities,
something never done before with this type of product.
