At Andreoli we are specialists in processing KRION®, a next generation solid surface developed by Systempool, a PORCELANOSA Group company. It is a highly pleasant material, similar to natural stone. The composition of KRION® consists of two-thirds natural minerals combined with a low percentage of high resistance resins which provide its unique characteristics: an absence of pores, anti-bacterial, hardness, resistant, durable, easy to repair, low maintenance and easy to clean.
KRION® surface is pleasant to touch and can withstand attacks by concentrated acids, is highly resistant to all types of stains and is unaffected by chemical products, including solvents. Furthermore, it’s resistance to heat and fireproof properties mean that this solid surface can be in contact with any heat source without being damaged.
Beceause of lack of pores and proven resistance to adverse weather conditions also make it suitable for outdoor use. It can be used to create spectacular new coverings for buildings, such as the façade of the new Bershka building in Calle Preciados in Madrid.
KRION® is unaffected by the passage of time. In the event of breakage, repairs can be made on-site with a simple kit that restores the part to its original condition, with no trace of any joints. KRION® Solid Surface can be die-cut, expanding its possibilities yet further. It can be used to make decorative or geometric shapes to create changing rooms, bed headboards, hotel corridors, etc.
Any complex shapes can easily be made with KRION®, that allows designers to give form to their imaginative ideas. With curved, squared and spiral elements or infinite shapes with imperceptible joins: any imaginable structure can be made.
Its unique properties mean that this material can also be backlit, with a degree of translucency chosen by the designer, to create suggestive atmospheres and spectacular shapes.
It is processed in a similar way to wood and can be cut into sheets, joined and thermoformed to make curved elements, etc. This solid surface is even possible to use in an injection moulding production process to create different designs and projects that would be impossible to create using other materials.
