Gazzini Marquinia | Italian Porcelain Tile
It is not easy to emulate the true, deep black of the popular Nero Marquinia marble from Spain but Gazzini rose to the challenge with their Marquinia series. Using the purest raw materials in their colored-body porcelain clay, they were able to obtain a genuine black color. By adding the marble’s distinctive white veins, this porcelain is recognizable as a superior interpretation of a classic and dramatic choice. It is suitable for residential applications.

As noted in the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) the coefficient of friction varies considerably due to facts not under the control of entities such as the manufacturers and distributors. These factors include, but are not limited to, contaminants, slope of terrain, drainage conditions, adjacent surfaces, etc. Suitability for any installation can only be determined by a site examination of all conditions that could affect the slip resistance of the tile being installed. Continual cleaning and maintenance must be performed once the tile has been installed.
