SapienStone replicates the effect of black marble sustainably, to avoid exploiting precious natural resources.
Durable and resistant to impact and abrasion, SapienStone black marble effect porcelain stoneware is also noted for its practicality and ease of cleaning.
The ceramics are impermeable, non-porous and remain unchanged over time since they are resistant to stains and wear. These qualities make them the ideal solution in areas subject to continuous, prolonged use such as kitchens.
