Velvetech is the new technology with an European patent inspired by the effect of sanding on the surface. Velvetech has silk-like reflections and a velvety soft hand. The naturalness of the surface is emphasised by areas of different opacity that contribute to the depth of the surface.
Velvetech
The new technology with patent filed in Europe, for and impeccable smooth touch.
Smooth, delicate and natural
Warning: Velvet is a delicate surface
SURFACE FEATURES
Velvet is a delicate surface that requires proper care.
Velvet is a surface that features irregularities, streaks, and superficial halos, particularly visible under oblique or reflected light.
The Velvet finish may show noticeable marks, caused primarily by contact with metal objects (e.g. metal legs of chairs and furniture) and other abrasive materials. To best protect and preserve it, it is essential to follow the cleaning and maintenance guidelines.
INDICATIONS OF USE
Recommended for low-traffic flooring, preferably for residential use (e.g., bedrooms, living rooms, studies, private kitchens, private bathrooms, etc.).
Not recommended for flooring where anti-slip performance is required.
Recommended for flooring with a coefficient of friction (DCOF) >0.42 Wet (ANSI A326.3).
Please note that the indication for use is purely indicative, and it is always the designer’s responsibility to assess the suitability of the product for specific use conditions and local regulations, taking into account the variables of the intended environment.
DAILY CLEANING & CARE
Do not use detergents with waxing, polishing, or shining properties.
Do not use steel wood pads or excessively abrasive materials.
Clean with a damp cloth and diluted neutral detergent, or use a scrubber dryer with soft nylon brushes for large areas, following the manufacturer's instructions.
Periodic cleaning with a melamine brush and diluted alkaline detergent is recommended, following the manufacturer's instructions.
In humid environments or those with organic residues (e.g., limescale or staining agents), use an acid-based detergent and rinse thoroughly, following the manufacturer’s instructions.
In spaces with outdoor exposure, use mats or dirt-trapping devices to retain moisture and dust.
Apply protective pads to movable elements in contact with the surface (e.g., furniture and chair legs, etc.).
During installation, use leveling spacers with anti-scratch pads.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE AFTER LAYING
Always perform a preliminary cleaning test, regardless of the grout used (cementitious grout, class CG-EN 13888 in contrast or epoxy grout, class RG-EN 13888).
For cementitious grout, use a buffered acid cleaner and rinse thoroughly, following the manufacturer's instructions.
For epoxy grouts, remove residues before they harden and use specific cleaners, following the manufacturer's instructions.
