Levantina’s Mediterraneo Collection


Levantina’s Mediterraneo Collection offers a selection of new materials: Blanco Altea, Blanco Tabarca and Blanco Tabarca Stripped. The company reports that the materials are ideal on exteriors due to their excellent physical qualities, durability and low porosity. As well as their aesthetic qualities, these materials have high-thermal resistance and are one of the better options in variable atmospheric conditions, according to Levantina.

Benefits include:

• Adaptable to multiple fastening systems

• Minimum maintenance

• High-impact resistance

Blanco Altea is flat and smooth. It is recommended for ventilated and non-ventilated fronts. Blanco Tabarca is rough and rustic with a touch of originality. It is also recommended for ventilated and non-ventilated fronts. Blanco Tabarca Stripped is non-slip and suitable for both exterior and interior applications. Formats include slab, standard flagstone and cut-to-size in 2 and 3 cm thicknesses.
