SLABS WITH MACHINED EDGE


FIMAS is pleased to present an important novelty that makes the Volcanic Monolayer more and more appreciable. This is a specific process carried out in the upper edge of the slab, which allows the slabs of Volcanic Monolayer to be laid with a dry laying system, for light vehicular use, avoiding surface contact chips.
This process can be carried out in sizes mms. 400×400 and mms. 200×400 and in thicknesses 50-60-80-100 mms, on all available finishes.
