Moderno Porcelain Works, a leader in the fabrication and installation of large-format porcelain, sintered stone, and ultra-compact surfaces, launches MightySlab, a patent-pending solution for stone distributors and fabricators, offering durability, ease of handling, and simplified installation. Moderno Porcelain Works will be showcasing MightySlab at Coverings April 22-25 in Atlanta, Georgia, in booth 4615.
MightySlab is 6mm large-format porcelain slabs with a 10 mm Moderno Core Board (MCB) bonded together with a proprietary resin mesh. This synergy creates embedded armor and protection that marries the aesthetic appeal and surface benefits of porcelain with the structural strength typically associated with stone materials. The result is a robust, yet lightweight panel designed for a diverse range of applications, including residential and commercial applications. MightySlab incorporating Xtone Moderno Series sintered stone slabs is currently available and comes in 20 colors and different finishes.
Key Features of Moderno MightySlab
- High Durability: MightySlab endows 6mm sintered stone slabs with the strength of a 20mm stone slab, rendering it virtually unbreakable.
- Lightweight Solution: MightySlab weighs approximately 165 lbs, significantly reducing the risks associated with handling and installation.
- Versatile Applications: Available in a standard size of 63"x126". MightySlab can be customized to fit any design requirement, broadening the scope beyond countertops to include wall claddings such as shower enclosures, fireplaces and furniture.
- Fabrication: Stone cutters do not need specialized equipment. Simply utilize your stone fabrication machines with a porcelain blade and cut as you would with any stone. No need for recalibration.
- Installation: Time and materials are significantly reduced by only requiring construction adhesive versus thin set. MightySlab can be installed directly to the studs and can be shimmed for plumbness.
- Health and Safety Prioritized: MightySlab has safe levels of silica and is free of hazardous materials, ensuring safer work environments for fabricators and installers. Porcelain, sintered stone and MCB are all sustainable materials.
