Mineraltek
Material for top and top with built-in basin
TECHNICAL DATA SHEET

DESCRIPTION

Mineraltek is 75% natural mineral fillers (calcium carbonates and alumina trihydrate) and 25% polyester resin. The enamel film used to cover the surface is a polyester acrylate, which provides excellent resistance properties. Its aesthetic, mechanical and chemical characteristics make this material perfect for bathroom furniture and furnishings in public spaces. Mineraltek is a highly versatile material that can take the form of basins, tops, and base units.

Available for top and top with built-in basin.

CLEANING

Mineraltek requires frequent cleaning to protect its original qualities and prevent signs of wear. Some aggressive chemicals can damage Mineraltek surfaces. Product care is quick and easy. Most stains, limescale and dirt that may deposit on the surface can be removed with a damp cloth or non-abrasive sponge, and a standard, non-abrasive detergent. Rinse the surface thoroughly after cleaning. Avoid abrasive detergents and sponges. Do not use metal scrapers. This product is heat-resistant. However, avoid placing very hot objects or draining boiling liquids on the surface. Do not use aggressive chemicals such as acetone, trichloroethylene, solvents, acids or strong alkalines. Some substances such as ink, cosmetics and dye may release colourants on the surface; avoid contact with these substances. Do not rest lit cigarettes on the surface. Do not use cut directly on the surface.

Tecnotek
Material for top and top with built-in basin
TECHNICAL DATA SHEET

DESCRIPTION

Tactile
Pleasant to the touch, similar to a natural surface, this warm material turns direct contact an
unexpected surprise.

Eye-catching
Fluid forms and the absence of any joints create unique visuals, and the surfaces flow in a continuum.

Hygienic and easy to clean
Surfaces can be cleaned with a soft damp cloth in most cases. For more stubborn dirt, use a mild detergent and an abrasive sponge. The acrylic resin is food-safe.

Long-lasting
The colour does not change with natural or artificial light. It is highly resistant to stains, scratches, and mould. As a compact, non-porous material throughout, it is resistant to external agents and easy to clean.

Easy to repair
As a highly compact, uniform material throughout, even significant surface damage (such as incisions caused by heavy sharp/pointy objects falling onto the surface) can be removed with a delicate, abrasive action. To repair substantial damage, also polish the surface. Deeper or more extensive damage caused by improper use can be repaired on-site by a spe- cialist, without needing to replace the entire product.

Easy to process
It can be cut, drilled, milled, planed and inlaid using standard tools.

Non-toxic
It does not release vapours when exposed to normal temperatures. When it burns, it releases carbon oxides only and the smoke does not contain toxic gases. It can be disposed of as domestic waste.

Coordinated
Soft lines suit all tastes, making it the star of the bathroom space.
Thanks to Tecnotek, the same material can be used for the basin and the unit top,
creating a unique, harmonious colour palette.

Available for top and top with built-in basin.

Corian®
Material for top and top with built-in basin
TECHNICAL DATA SHEET

DESCRIPTION

Resistant
DuPont TM Corian® is easy to maintain and extremely durable. It does not split or flake. It tolerates daily use well and can with- stand most of the knocks, scratches and cuts to which surfaces in heavily used areas are subjected. Corian® has been tested to ascertain the mechanical, thermal, electrical and other properties of its surface. For the results of these specific tests and for more detailed information about its other physical properties, please consult the online datasheet at www.corian.it.

Hygienic
DuPontTM Corian® is a non-porous material. It is compact throughout and can be installed without any joins, making the surface extremely hygienic. Corian® surfaces do not allow fungi and bacteria to grow. Corian® has been certified by an independent laboratory as a hygienic material according to international standard DIN EN ISO 846.

Easy to repair
Surfaces in DuPontTM Corian® can be restored to their original beauty using a normal, mild, abrasive detergent and an abrasive sponge.

Non-toxic
Du- Pont TM Corian® is an inert and non-toxic material. It does not release gases when exposed to normal temperatures. When it burns, it releases carbon oxides only. The smoke it produces has a limited optical density and does not contain toxic halogenated gases.

Full-bodied colours
The colours and decorative patterns run through the full thickness of the material and are therefore not subject to wear. DuPontTM Corian® is a solid material and does not split or flake.

Invisible joins
Bonding is invisible with this material and the overall effect is that of a continuous surface without any joins.

HPL
Material for top and top with built-in basin
TECHNICAL DATA SHEET

DESCRIPTION

High pressure laminate (HPL) is an excellent quality material, thanks to its functional and aesthetic properties. It is resistant to wear and steam, hygienic and versatile to cut and assemble. This make it an ideal material for making furniture. HPL is also ideal for all applications requiring both strength and a great design, and there are various different types. It is the most reliable material in terms of quality, while also being rich in aesthetic features. It can also be used to create contemporary design accessories in general. HPL also maintains its aesthetic and performance characteristics unaltered throughout its life cycle.

It is made up of layers of cellulose fibres impregnated with phenolic resins and features one or more layers of cellulose fibre on the surface, for aesthetic purposes. This surface layer is impregnated with thermosetting resins and bonded together by a high-pressure process, in accordance with standard EN 438:2005. Natural variations in temperature and humidity do not alter the properties of HPL. Being especially compact, HPL ensures an excellent combination of mechanical characteristics such as resistance to bending, traction, compression and impact. The panels are smooth and even, and have a high density, guaranteeing excellent resistance when removing fasteners. A very high percentage of the raw materials used for its production are recyclable.

Available for top and top with built-in basin.

CLEANING

Use a soft (non-abrasive), damp cloth to remove any dust deposits, particles or other dry material, without scouring the surface.

Use a non-abrasive cleaning agent to clean all surfaces and dry with a dry, soft cloth or paper towels.

Do not use abrasive or scratching substances (abrasive cleaners, powders, scouring pads, descaling agents, hydrochloric or formic acid). Rinse with lukewarm water and dry without leaving halos.

If stains are still present, repeat the operation with liquid detergent and warm (not boiling) water, rinsing and drying the surface.

In case that dirt is deposited in the crevices, use a soft toothbrush: only go over the affected spot with gentle, circular movements so as not to scratch the surface.

Avoid pouring hot liquids into the sink.

In the case of persistent limescale, kitchen vinegar may be used on the affected area, leaving it for a maximum of a few minutes and rinsing immediately afterwards.

Venezia finish
Material for top and Eclipse bathroom furniture fronts
TECHNICAL DATA SHEET

DESCRIPTION

This innovative finish combines the refined, resistant properties of glass with special slabs featuring an elegant glossy or matt marble effect. This new material allows you to create furniture with a simple, modern design. Use it to clad the Eclipse base units to create continuity.
The white Calacatta finish features the same delicate shades as the precious Italian Calacatta marble, while the black Marquinia flaunts the marked white vein of the prized Spanish marble going by the same name.

The unique feature of this unit in a white Calacatta or black Marquinia marble-effect finish is the continuous vein. Starting from the unit front, it extends to the sides and across the top, uninterrupted, to create a single element.
The Venezia finish, when applied to different combinations of base units, creates compositions that are truly unique.

CLEANING

For cleaning, use special detergents for glass surfaces, which should be sprayed onto a microfibre glass cloth. In case of stains, especially dry, soften the stain with warm water and wipe with a soft cloth. Use lukewarm water and vinegar or water and denatured alcohol to remove all traces of halos.
