Techlam® is the first thin, large-format porcelain to be  manufactured in Spain and is sold in tiles 3mm and 5mm thick up to 1000 x 3000mm.

It is used for exterior paving and flooring, for interior walls and facades and for other decorative uses.
 
The experts on the jury awarded the prize to the Strattos Collection which as well as having all the advantages mentioned above, represents a considerable amount of work in the development of the product.

Techlam®'s innovative digital printing, its versatility of use, its durability  and its 100% natural composition which means that it does not emit any noxious substances to the environment, are the properties which won Techlam the prize.
