Krion, Porcelanosa

This proprietary material combines the visual heft of stone with the flexibility of plastic.

This solid surfacing material from Porcelanosa may look and feel like stone, but it can be molded into a variety of shapes with minimally visible joints. Krion can be specified for washbasins, vanities, countertops, shower columns, as well as other kitchen and bath applications. The nonporous, fire-resistant material is made from one-third polyester polymer resin and two-thirds alumina, a natural mineral. porcelanosa-usa.com
