-Aizano-
Description & Features
Aizano is one of the dark, warm colours of the Loft series, which Belenco – the Manisa-based company of the Korean LOTTE group – recommends for combinations with wood, metal and bolder palettes. The background is a warm charcoal with a soft grey-brown undertone, across which short, fine white veinlets and specks spread evenly with no particular direction, like a discreet crackle; the result has movement without looking busy. As a Bretonstone quartz it practically does not absorb liquids (0.04% per ASTM C97) and, according to Belenco's technical data, has a flexural strength of at least 40 MPa and chemical resistance class C4. With Jumbo slabs up to 165 × 330 cm (or Extra 152 × 310 cm) and 15, 20 or 30 mm thicknesses, the polished Aizano covers large surfaces with few joints, while those who prefer a matt look can choose Aizano Seta. It gives character to islands and kitchen countertops, as well as to bathroom vanity tops, wall cladding, stairs and interior floors. It cleans easily with a damp cloth and a mild neutral detergent, without sealing; avoid direct contact with hot cookware and strong chemicals.
Why choose Aizano
- Warm charcoal with discreet white veinlets
- Loft series – pairs with wood and metal
- Water absorption 0.04% and chemical class C4
