Daltile Elestial
“A true design element for any space, Panoramic’s Elestial porcelain slabs flawlessly replicate one of nature’s most rare stones, silver root marble, quarried from the Turkish landscape,” said Roy Viana, director of natural stone and slab, Dal-Tile LLC. “Offering a warm, silver-grey backdrop accented with gold and dark charcoal veining, Elestial brings luxury and soothing elegance to any bathroom, kitchen, or outdoor kitchen.
“This 64-by-127-in. extra-large slab provides the artistry of a natural marble visual with the durability, cleanability and affordability of porcelain. Elestial can be used on a multitude of surfaces including dry interior floors, walls, countertops, fireplaces, vanities, backsplashes, shower walls, tub surrounds, pool linings and even as exterior cladding.”
Daltile’s Panoramic Porcelain Surfaces
As mentioned, Elestial is part of Daltile’s award-winning Panoramic Porcelain Surfaces line that provides the visuals and style of natural stone slabs with the performance of porcelain tile for endless design possibilities.
“Panoramic easily brings the scale and style of natural stone slabs to projects where stone might be cost, durability, maintenance, or installation prohibitive,” said Viana. “Thanks to Daltile’s proprietary printing technologies, designs are so realistic that it’s hard to tell the difference between Panoramic and natural stone. Because Panoramic is made of authentic porcelain, each product is heat, stain, scratch and chemical resistant, as well as durable and easy to maintain.”
