Materials for renovating a hotel

At Krion, part of the prestigious Porcelanosa Group, we are dedicated to the development of materials that meet the highest standards in aesthetics, resistance and sustainability. These materials are designed to facilitate fast and effective hotel renovations.

Krion® Solid Surface: design and customise without limits

Krion® Solid Surface is a compact, high mineral content, almost non-porous and highly resistant material, ideal for interior and exterior cladding and furniture in hotels. Its ability to be thermoformed and backlit allows the creation of customised designs without visible joints, ensuring continuous and easy-to-clean surfaces.

Advantages of Krion® Solid Surface:

• No visible joints: makes it easy to clean and maintains an impeccable appearance, crucial in hotel environments where hygiene is paramount.

• Stain and bacteria resistant: ideal for high traffic and high use areas such as bathrooms, wet areas, buffets, restaurants and kitchens.

• Thermally curvable: adapts to any design and project requirements.

• Sustainability: Krion® is an eco-friendly choice that meets strict environmental standards, as well as containing different percentages of recycled material in a wide variety of models.

• Backlit: by incorporating light inside, it achieves personalised effects and a unique warmth.

Fitwall® and Alluslate®: innovating with decorative panels

Fitwall® and Alluslate® are another Krion® innovation that redefines decorative panels. Fitwall® are panels designed to mimic natural textures such as stone, concrete or wood, offering a stunning aesthetic finish without the weight and cost of the original materials. Alluslate® is manufactured with a layer of aluminium on its base and reproduces realistic designs that contribute to creating atmospheres in environments.

Advantages of Fitwall® and Alluslate®:

• Quick and easy installation: No building work or specialised installation equipment is required, minimising disruption to the hotel business.

• Customised design: A variety of textures and finishes to suit the unique style of each hotel.

• Durability and easy maintenance: Wear resistant and easy to clean, ideal for demanding environments.

Bathroom equipment

Krion® Solid Surface is perfect in hotel bathrooms. Its resistance to stains and bacteria is especially valuable in these environments. Finished or semi-finished products such as washbasins, countertops or shower trays provide continuous surfaces that are easy to clean and maintain, and prevent the proliferation of fungi and bacteria, with a high hygienic capacity in humid and high-traffic spaces.

Hotel refurbishments: customised furniture

With the ability to be thermoformed, Krion® makes it possible to create made-to-measure furniture that adapts to the specific needs of each space. From tables and desks to shelves and bars, the material can be moulded into any shape and size.

Façades and outdoor spaces

One of the greatest strengths of the resistance of Krion® Solid Surface is its resistance outdoors, even in demanding weather conditions or installed in places near the sea. It remains unalterable for much longer against saltpetre or high exposure to the sun.
