Frequently Asked Questions
How is Parma different from Lucca?
They are two sister stones in the same 29.3x29.3 format: Parma has a finer, more delicate grain, like French limestone; Lucca is somewhat more rustic and marked. If in doubt, order a sample of each: price and performance are identical.
How much does each box cover?
Each box contains 11 pieces = 0.94 m² (17.8 kg). The full pallet is 64 boxes = 60.42 m², with the best price per meter.
Is it suitable for outdoors and wet areas?
Yes with the R10 Anti-slip version (slip-resistance class 2): terraces, porches, patios and shower floors. The standard is perfect for the rest of the interior and for walls.
How is a small rectified format laid?
With a fine 2 mm joint and tone-matched grout. The dense layout looks best starting from a center line in small rooms, and diagonally in square patios: it gains depth.
Does it stain with use?
No: unlike real limestone, porcelain doesn't absorb liquids, needs no water repellent and cleans with water and neutral detergent. Oil and wine leave no mark.
How much material should I order?
Add 10% to your m² for cuts and round up to full boxes. From about 55 m², the full pallet is the best buy.
