Welcome to the innovative era of 4D technology, where the beauty of SapienStone surfaces meets the technological revolution developed by Iris Ceramica Group, to which the brand belongs.
With Iris Ceramica Group’s technology, SapienStone ceramic surfaces embody a new approach: full-body technology has evolved to bring ceramics to a whole new level of perfection and sustainability.
The evolution of the fourth dimension combines outstanding aesthetics with the functionality of the slab, that offers unique benefits including natural beauty, durability, resistance, and sustainability.
Each 4D Ceramic slab is not only naturally beautiful but also ideal for any space, from cozy indoor settings to demanding environments like outdoor kitchens, where it performs exceptionally well.
4D Ceramics technology, the result of years of research and development, heralds a new era and sets new standards in the ceramics market, where Iris Ceramica Group’s re-engineering of materials is a blend of design, emotion and performance.
4D Ceramics materials stand out in the market as a masterpiece of engineering, designed to eliminate any visual distinction and create an aesthetically pleasing and seamless visual continuity. This brings a new level of originality to interior design projects, using surfaces that accentuate the natural beauty of ceramics, with veining and shading throughout the thickness of this material.
The fourth dimension of SapienStone surfaces takes ceramics to a higher stage of evolution, a combination of solidity and layers that evoke the elements of nature: fire and earth. A project born from Iris Ceramica Group’s unique entrepreneurial vision, which has opened up a new dimension for ceramics: the three ‘spatial’ dimensions are combined with the fourth dimension, i.e. sustainable technology, creating a living material that embodies the Group’s core values.
The new dimension of ceramics: 4D
Iris Ceramica Group has perfected its full-body technology to the point where it is now possible to create an unrivalled, technologically sophisticated surface. Just as natural stone accumulates layers over time, which gives it value, 4D Ceramics, with its carefully selected mix of natural raw materials, becomes granitic and as solid as a rock: its history is encapsulated in a thickness of 12mm and 20mm.
Visually speaking, the result is a ceramic surface that looks exactly the same throughout, both on the surface and in its thickness. This is achieved by recreating natural veining, shades of colour, geometric designs or patterns, thus completely blurring the boundary between a surface and its edge.
New prospects for interior design projects
4D Ceramics opens up new aesthetic possibilities for ceramics, offering new prospects when it comes to using and manufacturing worktops for interior design projects. The 4D Ceramic panel becomes part of a new architectural language, and the beauty and complexity of the material is reflected in its thickness.
The simple fact of being able to rely on surfaces that perfectly reflect the appeal of 4D Ceramics in thicknesses of 12mm and 20mm makes SapienStone the Group’s ambassador of technological innovation, which is translated into tangible solutions that inspire designers to create worktops for the furniture and kitchen industries, such as tables, work surfaces, shelves and furnishing accessories.
Sustainability and innovation
4D Ceramics is driving change in the ceramics industry, demonstrating that innovation and sustainability can go hand in hand in order to create materials that meet the highest standards of quality while being environmentally friendly.
Moreover, thanks to advanced manufacturing processes and the use of environmentally friendly materials designed to last, fewer natural resources are used and less frequent replacement is required, thus reducing overall consumption.
4D ceramics is therefore not only a testament to technological progress, but also a tangible example of how the ceramics industry can develop in harmony with the environment.
The future of ceramics is here. SapienStone transforms spaces into functional and sustainable projects, using materials that capture the beauty and authenticity of nature.
SapienStone is a brand of Iris Ceramica Group, specialising in kitchen worktops, work surfaces, shelves and tables made of porcelain stoneware. It is a material that not only has an undeniable aesthetic appeal, but one that also offers excellent technical performance.
In fact, it is easy to clean, resistant to temperature changes and scratches and unaffected by acidic or corrosive products used in regular maintenance or cooking. It also does not change colour when exposed to UV light and does not stain.
