Storytelling on Large Format Ceramics with Design Your Slab
Design Your Slabs is a groundbreaking, tailor-made service where any image or illustration can be applied to large sized high tech ceramic surfaces through inkjet technology. Design Your Slabs offers architects and designers a new option for their unique artistic concepts with previously unimaginable color effects. Design Your Slabs are the first technical ceramic slabs in the market to offer personalization with full blown high impact color illustration.
