Raised floors for interiors

Absolutely. Micrometric calibration of the support heads allows for level adjustments. This versatility of stoneware floating floors allows designers to absorb existing slopes in existing floors, making it easy to install a raised floor with low levels even in complex structural situations.

Yes, installation in environments with a high risk of spills presents no problem for a porcelain stoneware raised floor . The sintered substrate is completely non-absorbent. For installation in bathrooms or industrial kitchens, we recommend the sealed-joint floating floor version : the intersecting joints are filled with waterproof silicone grout, blocking leaks at the root.

Yes, breaking down the aesthetic boundaries of the building envelope is one of the most significant benefits of porcelain stoneware.Outdoor ceramic raised floorsare resistant to rot and freeze-thaw cycles, preserving their primary structure intact. This feature allows architects and designers to extend thefinishes of indoor raised floorsto outdoor spaces such as terraces or rooftops, maintaining a rigorous material and functional alignment.

Unlike chipboard or calcium sulfate panels, which are irreversibly damaged, our IT2.6 system is completely inert to liquids. In the event of accidental water damage, the use of a porcelain stoneware underlay guarantees total non-absorbency. This prevents the burdensome disposal and costly replacement of the raised floor, allowing for immediate restoration of the premises. Thanks to these characteristics, it represents the ideal solution for creating technical floors resistant to rising damp for ground floor renovations.

These are “standard” applications in most cases, as they almost always include furniture and partition walls. When faced with particularly demanding requirements to ensure a high load-bearing capacity of the raised floor, it is possible to reinforce both the panels and the structure, while maintaining the absolute stability of the floating raised floor.

Our IT 2.6 stoneware-on-stoneware system is completely inert to liquids. In the event of accidental water-related incidents, or when the surfaces in your store require frequent washing, the use of a porcelain stoneware base helps minimize long, damaging periods of business closure, allowing for a rapid restoration of the premises. Furthermore, because it is entirely non-absorbent, it serves as an ideal solution for creating technical flooring that resists rising damp, making it perfect for the renovation of ground-floor retail spaces.

The cavity beneath the floor surface can easily accommodate all the networks required for a retail business—from cables for computers and cash registers to HVAC, fire protection, and plumbing systems. A raised technical floor makes the space underneath accessible at any time for maintenance, while also offering a fully reconfigurable layout: you can adapt and update your store’s configuration to suit changing display needs, without ever requiring construction work or demolition.

A raised floor made of porcelain stoneware is particularly well-suited for high-traffic environments. In addition to providing a distinctive design, which serves as a true “calling card” for the store, it offers an exceptionally robust, hygienic surface that is easy to clean on a daily basis, ensuring an impeccable appearance over time. From a technical standpoint, aside from a regular annual inspection (to check for any dust accumulation in the underfloor cavity or potential issues with the subfloor), it requires no special care; this significantly reduces the need for extraordinary maintenance and lowers the long-term cost of the flooring.

In commercial settings, such as bars or restaurants, unexpected issues can arise. Our IT 2.6 porcelain-on-porcelain system offers a solution that is completely inert to liquids. In the event of accidental leaks, the use of porcelain stoneware ensures total non-absorbency, preventing the need for costly replacements and lengthy operational downtime. This allows for a rapid restoration of the space, minimizing the impact on your day-to-day business operations.

A raised floor system creates a practical cavity beneath the walking surface—an ideal space for housing and protecting data networks, as well as electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems in modern workspaces or public-facing facilities. The panels used for raised flooring in commercial areas can be easily removed with the help of professional suction tools; this allows you to inspect the underlying systems at any time and reconfigure the layout of your premises or shopping center without the need for disruptive and costly construction work.

Raised flooring made of porcelain stoneware is an excellent choice for commercial environments subject to intensive use and high foot traffic. Its resistance to wear and chemical agents ensures that it always maintains an impeccable appearance. Consequently, routine maintenance is extremely quick; from a technical standpoint, a regular annual inspection of the underfloor cavity is all that is required. Furthermore, the lack of any need for major, non-routine interventions—combined with ease of cleaning—minimizes long-term operating costs, while preserving a space that enhances the company’s corporate identity.
