Ecocycleâ„¢: the â€˜new lifeâ€™ of Krion sheets which reduces waste production

One of Krion’s goals is none other than the care and protection of the environment. From the company itself, in order to achieve this, every effort is focused on finding ways to make our products and production processes more sustainable, environmentally friendly and safer for society. After... the development of K·Life, the photocatalytic material that purifies the air, Krion carries on with its sustainability and development policy through Ecocycle™. This manufacturing process, a result of work done by the team of Research, Development, Innovation, Quality and Environment, considerably reduces waste production and the use of plastic materials. Recycle to create Ecocycle™ is a Krion system geared towards the production of the Solid Surface with up to 40% of recycled material. A new production process which consists of taking the surpluses of sheet manufacturing and turning them into new versions of Krion™. In this way, these surpluses are used for the manufacturing of chips that will shape the 46 sustainable colours of Krion™, therefore reducing the waste produced. Certifications which ratify the ECO commitment The ongoing research, along with the technological achievements carried out by the different departments from Krion, have enhanced the company image, finding itself at the forefront of innovation, sustainability and improvement of life quality. The Ecocycle™ manufacturing mechanism has led to the obtainment of the SCS Global Services certification. Specifically, at Krion we have four types of certifications: 6% minimum recycled content, 12% minimum recycled content and 40% minimum recycled content. At Krion, thanks to the ongoing search for improvement, not only did we achieve in renewing the certification of some of our collections, but also, we extended the list of certified products by adding three more, namely: The Luce, Grigio and Amaro finishes from the Materia series; they offer at least 20% recycled material in their composition. Sustainable products with a large number of possibilities The same aesthetic possibilities, as well as the same features as the rest of the Solid Surface ranges which significantly reduce the production of resources by bringing them into the production line again. As well as that, they provide added value to each project by reducing the ecological footprint. When reference is made to Krion™, we focus on a product, not only ecological by itself, but also committed to its production process. The energy consumption and emissions are reduced thanks to the natural casting, the process by which the material is obtained without any external temperature aid. As well as that, water use is reduced during the sheet processing and the emission of VOCs decreases thanks to a more precise and optimised reactivity, resulting in a product which is safer, more sustainable and environmentally friendly. A long-lasting material over the years, which makes its regeneration possible, extending the life of the project and fighting against the culture of disposability. The sustainable awareness is inside Krion’s DNA, and it has been so since its inception. This is the reason why at Krion, we are aware that each small change goes towards making a better future.

Coverlux â„¢ expands the possibilities of creation and design

Since KrionTMwas created in 2010, an entrepreneurial spirit has led us to discovering, experimenting and exploring beyond the established limits. We are always questioning standards, listening to our clients and collaborators as well. That is why our exploratory spirit has led us to creating... Coverlux™, a new material with which we expand the possibilities in aesthetic terms, similar to those offered by marble or natural stone because its decoration is full through-body. Thanks to its durability, hygiene and easy maintenance features, it is ideal for: commercial furniture and hotel equipment, worktops, and indoor wall tiles. Material with a different composition to that of KrionTM, but it maintains the premises of functionality, safety and aesthetic from the company. Inspired by the most noble and sophisticated materiales, Coverlux™ comes in the shape of a sheet and it is made up of two parts. A body with a mineral origin (ATH), polyester acrylate resins and pigments, and a coating which provides the material with gloss, greater protection and exceptional characteristics. Material with great physical characteristics Coverlux™ sheets are manufactured in a 2440mm x 1220mm size with a 10mm thickness, making both their transport and their installation easy. They do not require extra handling since they are delivered with the high gloss final coating, thus making work easier, preventing any time loss for the completion of the final finish. In addition, the thickness of the piece allows structural objects to be made, which are necessary for specific supports. Its handling and cutting can be carried out with tools intended for carpentry, offering even greater advantages to professionals who deal with wood. Through the folding gluing technique, invaluable joints are achieved on edges and in corners which offer continuity to the design. Coverlux™ benefits and advantages 1. Maximum hygiene It is a bacteriostatic material on all its sides, since it does not allow the proliferation of microorganisms on any of its sides due to its zero porosity. In addition, its nanotechnological coating with an advanced composition has a bactericidal effect which removes bacteria from its surface. 2. Durability Coverlux™ offers good strength to surface damage due to wear and tear or the passage of time, such as scrapes or scratches. Due to its composition, it does not present fragility against impacts, which can lead to cracks and chipping. It also performs excellently against moisture, preventing any bumps, delamination or scaling. It is highly resistant against common daily stains, even when exposed to stains for a long period of time. 3. Functionality It is material which comes with low maintenance costs due to its zero porosity and high gloss, making its cleaning easy and quick. The possible damages produced by scratches or scrapes on the Coverlux ™ surface, can be repaired using a simple process thanks to its nanotechnological coating. A material with a decorative touch The Coverlux™ composition makes it a type of material with many creative possibilities. Thanks to its full through-body composition, heterogeneous designs are achieved. Following an indicative pattern, they result in unique sheets. The surface of this material is a high gloss coating which gives the piece a vitrified visual effect. This glowing effect increases with the possibility of some designs being backlit. The possibilities offered by the composition of the decor material in all its body, and its elegant gloss finish have allowed for a marble-like look collection to be created: Premium Stone. This first collection is inspired by the finest stone, reproducing the marble colours and replicating its characteristic veins. Available in four colour combinations, it covers all types of different tastes and needs. The sheets can be seamlessly bonded to one another using the mitering technique, ensuring a continuous design and top coating. Coverlux™ can be cut with the same tools as wood, following the necessary recommendations. There is no crystalline silica in its formula. Statuario Bianco Inspired by one of the most beautiful types of marble, this piece of exceptional purity provides luminosity to the spaces. It is enriched by the grayish veins of its composition. The Statuario Bianco model allows the bookmatching technique to be carried out. This consists of cutting the veined material into slabs to get contiguous surfaces which reflect each other, creating in the process an amazing and symmetrical image, similar to butterfly wings. Onice Persa Its sober composition, and the warmth of its tones generate cosy spaces which convey comfort and serenity, making it the ideal finish for relaxation areas such as halls and waiting rooms. The backlighting possibility allows the veins and the impressive internal details of the material to be seen so much better. Oxide Melbourne A composition designed to leave a mark on each look. The Oxide Melbourne application plays a key role in the interior design, giving spaces a bold touch with a unique and groundbreaking character. This model can also be backlit, allowing the contrast of the rusty dyed veins with the luxury of marble to be increased. Black Marquina Spanish-inspired, Black Marquina, is the perfect tone for creating elegant and timeless spaces. The depth of black is relaxing because of its subtle white veining, projecting personality into each atmosphere. Its timelessness allows it to be adapted to any atmosphere.

The art of jewellery design goes far beyond the aesthetic of each piece. The personal taste and the skill of the designer, the personality of each jewel and the viability to make it become reality are all involved in the creation process. A designer must have the expertise of shaping those much... sought-after and small luxurious pieces which, surely, will be part of a story and that can even become a key piece in a romance, a good friendship or a family symbol. Therefore, in a jewellery designer’s workshop, both ideas and materials flow, along with the business projection in relation to what one wants to actually give to a collection. Talent, vision, knowledge and the tools which help to materialise each project are key pieces in achieving success in jewellery designs. A great idea means nothing if you do not find the means and necessary materials to make it happen. To obtain collections which make clients fall in love and are beneficial to the designer, material which offers infinite creation possibilities are needed at a cost appropriate to the business and with the quality which a special piece like a jewel requires. In this sense, the Krion™ mineral compact becomes an excellent ally of creators who look for shaping unique pieces which transmit all the feelings which form a part of the creative process. The high degree of thermocurvability and the easy repair that Krion™ presents ensure the pieces are long-lasting, transmitting the experience and values of the designer.
