6mm

This intermediate thickness lies at the heart of Florim's thickness range: more robust than 3mm for applications requiring greater mechanical strength, yet lighter and easier to handle than 9mm for projects where weight and overall thickness are important design considerations. Florim's technological research has optimised this thickness to combine the performance of porcelain stoneware with the practicality of a slim profile, creating a material that meets a wide variety of contemporary design requirements.

FLORIM stone: intermediate-thickness technology

6mm-thick porcelain stoneware slabs from the FLORIM stone range combine large formats with a slim profile, making it possible to cover extensive surfaces with a limited number of joints while reducing the load on structures. The production technology ensures flatness, dimensional stability and colour uniformity, with rectification tolerances that allow for narrow grout joints and a clean, refined visual result.

The 6mm thickness maintains high performance in terms of resistance to mechanical stress, wear and chemicals, while ensuring the low water absorption and long-term durability that characterise Florim porcelain stoneware. The lightness of the slim profile also offers practical advantages during installation: easier-to-handle slabs, more convenient transport and reduced loads on supporting structures.

Versatile applications: from flooring to countertops

The 6mm thickness is naturally suited to a wide range of applications across different types of interior design and contract projects. As flooring, 6mm thin slabs provide a walkable surface with high performance, depending on the intended use and correct installation, with the advantage of a slim profile that helps minimise height differences in renovations and installations over existing floors.

As wall coverings, the 6mm thickness makes it possible to create walls with a high degree of visual continuity using large slabs, allowing the material to extend with fewer noticeable visual interruptions. In suitable furnishing applications, such as kitchen countertops, tables and furnishing accessories, thin slabs combine resistance to everyday use with elegant proportions, making it possible to create surfaces with reduced thicknesses and slim edges that enhance the relationship between the material and the supporting furniture structure.

Large formats and material continuity

The combination of reduced thickness and large formats is one of the distinctive advantages of Florim's 6mm range. Generously sized slabs in this thickness make it possible to create continuous surfaces where marble veining, stone textures and concrete colours extend across large areas with less visual emphasis on grout joints, creating a clean architectural appearance that enhances the geometry of the space.

The possibility of using the same material from floor to wall, from countertop to wall covering, creates a coherent material scheme where every surface interacts harmoniously with the others. In open-plan projects, this material continuity enhances the perception of spaciousness and openness, transforming the space into a fluid environment with a distinctive material identity.

Florim solutions in 6mm thickness

Florim offers its 6mm surfaces through a wide range of collections spanning different stylistic approaches, from stone looks for landscape-inspired settings to marble looks for prestigious residences, from concrete looks for urban lofts to striking solid colours, including decorative CEDIT collections for designer feature walls. Whether a project calls for the formal elegance of marble in a luxury living room, the textured character of stone in a natural setting or the graphic rigour of concrete in a contract space, each stylistic family offers surfaces designed to combine performance and aesthetic appeal in an intermediate thickness. Choose the Florim collection best suited to your needs and discover how the 6mm thickness can help shape your next project.
