KRION® is a synthetic resin, commonly known as solid surface, developed by System Pool, a company of the Porcelanosa Group. It is a material that has the same soft and smooth appearance as natural stone, but also has very interesting properties. It consists of two thirds natural minerals and one third acrylic resin.Acrylic resin has the particularity of being highly resistant and of granting the excellent properties of the material such as absence of pores, bacteria-proof properties, hardness, strength, durability, ease of repair, low maintenance and easy cleaning.
This material is usually processed by carpenters specialised in synthetic resin, as the material is processed in a similar way to wood. However, it differs in different ways, it is possible to use the material in the injection production process and to thermoform the material with a heat of 180°C, which makes it possible to obtain different designs and to realise projects which are impossible to achieve with other materials.
Raw Krion®
Presented in the form of 3680 mm long and 760, 930 or 1350 mm wide slabs with thicknesses ranging from 3mm to 24mm, this product is recognised and appreciated by interior designer professionals such as architects, interior decorators, etc. The solid surface allows a multitude of uses (worktops, wall cladding, facades, worktops, washbasins, baths, etc.). Krion® is generally processed in white but the material developed by Porcelanosa offers a hundred different colours to adapt to all projects whatever they are.

Le KRION® outdoors
KRION® has a proven resistance to adverse weather conditions and its resistance to sudden temperature changes makes KRION® solid surface the ideal material for cladding the most demanding buildings and outdoor projects such as benches, sunbeds or signage. At the same time, KRION® is an ideal alternative for the installation of ventilated and aesthetic facades.
Interior design in KRION®
The KRION® solid surface allows for the creation of seamless interior designs that create a uniformity effect in interior projects. The white colour used in most projects enhances the feeling of innovation and modernity, allowing architects and interior designers to express their creativity. Krion® is also available in "translucent" and in various colours. This range remains opaque but allows light to pass through. Many pieces of furniture are therefore enhanced by LED background lighting.
Another special feature of the PORCELANOSA Group's solid surface is its ability to be used in almost any form. Today, KRION® can be used for a wide range of applications such as designer furniture, shower trays and bathtubs. These innovative and custom-made designs, thanks to its thermoformable property, allow you to clearly tailor your comfort and let your imagination run wild.
Bathroom design is one of KRION®'s main strengths in interior design. The bathroom collections are inspired by important moments in everyone's life, such as the ARO collection, which is inspired by the Japanese tea ceremony, and is a perfect example of how Solid Surface makes sense of versatility with a material that is ideal for creating a bathroom that is as sumptuous, modern as it is practical and functional.
