Surfaces Technological Abrasives presents its new Soft Touch products

Surfaces Technological Abrasives, a company that specialises in the production of abrasives for finishing treatment of ceramic surfaces and natural stone, is presenting its new Soft Touch products based on constant research and experimentation.

The new Soft Touch finish has a silky, soft satin surface with a similar feel to the highest quality natural stone. Importantly, it does not affect the non-slip characteristics of tiles.

The innovative finish can be applied to any kind of porcelain tile thanks to a mechanical operation performed on the finished product after firing. It is ideal for enhancing the aesthetics of ceramic wood- or stone-look ceramic tiles, but is equally effective for tiles with a more contemporary design inspired by concrete or resins.

To create customised Soft Touch surfaces or other honed solutions, Surfaces places the exclusive Surfaces Lab pilot plant at the disposal of ceramic tile manufacturers along with a high-quality consulting and support service. All that companies need to do is contact the Surfaces headquarters or branches located in the main ceramic districts and send prototypes to the laboratory to receive exclusive high-quality solutions with small preview batches ideal for trade fairs or photo shoots. The service also includes designing high-performance solutions for final protective treatment and technical tests.

For the purposes of product development, Surfaces partners with leading ceramic manufacturers and offers a wide range of innovative, customised honing and surface finishing solutions with the highest levels of aesthetic and technical quality, from the classic mirror-polished look to sophisticated matt surfaces.
