MIRRORS

Sheet of glass covered by layers of silver, copper and, finally,

paint. The use of topquality raw materials in conjunction with

the correct mirror manufacturing process guarantee a maximum

protection against stains caused by corrosion.

V

ACRYLIC GLASS

The polymethylmetacrylate (PMMA) is known as one of

the “engineering plastics”, and is obtained through the

polymerisation of methyl methacrylate. It stands out from other

plastics due to the fact that it is impact resistant, weather resistant

— as it does not undergo any significant ageing in ten years of

outdoor exposure — resistant to UVA rays and scratch resistant.

Due to its absolute transparency (it is the most transparent

plastic), it is most commonly used in vehicle headlights, optics,

medicine or partition panels. For use in architecture and

decoration, it is lighter than glass and provides greater resistance

to impact, meaning it can be a good substitute in many situations.

ROSENTHAL PORCELAIN

Manufactured with selected high quality raw materials and

the appropriate proportion of kaolin, feldspar and quartz,

this mixture forms a paste that undergoes two baking stages:

moulding at 950o and vitrification at 1400o. In this last stage,

the piece is coated with a fine transparent film containing a high

proportion of quartz, which confers durability. The moulding

marks are smoothed in a traditional manner using sponges

and subsequently the pieces are decorated by hand. After the

vitrification process, the volume of porcelain is reduced by

12.5% (contraction). Thanks to Rosenthal know-how, the original

design is maintained with great precision and accuracy.

X

COMPOSITE

A material comprised of 75% natural minerals (calcium carbonate

and aluminium trihydrate) mixed with 25% polyester resin. The

gel coating provides a surface that is highly durable, elegant to

the touch and extremely hygienic.

B

STAINLESS STEEL

It is an alloy of iron and carbon. Steel maintains the iron hardness

characteristics. This steel has a special chrome treatment against

rust and oxidation. The used alloys are SS201 & SS304.

R

BRASS OR SIMILAR ALLOYS

Brass, variable tin composition, copper, and other ferric

metal alloys, or similar, are used in the manufacture of our

products. They offer different physical properties according to

their composition (durability, malleability, breakability, etc.).

Depending on the design, the best alloy is selected for each piece

based on its properties.

Q

CARRARA MARBLE

Extracted from Italy’s Tuscan quarries, each piece of marble is

different and each stone has its own unique characteristics. Its

white background has distinctive light blue-grey veins running

over its surface.

FLOAT GLASS (FLAT SHELVES AND WASHBASIN TOPS)

Made using standard FLOAT type glass that has undergone

no subsequent treatment other than the necessary machining,

cutting, and polishing. Therefore, it is a naturally fragile

material and despite the fact that the most appropriate density

has been used in every case, special care should be taken when

using it. 100% recyclable.

J

VENEERED WOOD

Water resistant MDF boards + oak veneer varnished with fine

quality materials to prevent yellowing. Oak wood is a material

that is very resistant to biological agents (fungus and insects).

As this kind of material is natural wood, it may present knots

and color variation.
