Installing raised interior flooring in residential spaces creates a technical void beneath the floor surface, which can be used to conceal electrical wiring, plumbing, alarm systems, network cables, and more—significantly facilitating access for any necessary repairs or modifications. Furthermore, this raised flooring system contributes to the acoustic and thermal insulation of residential interiors, resulting in energy savings and enhanced living comfort.
Porcelain stoneware used for interior raised flooring is known for its strength, durability, and versatility—key qualities for residential settings. From an aesthetic perspective, raised porcelain stoneware floors offer a wide range of design and finish options, with a variety of textures, colors, and formats available to suit personal taste and the home’s interior decor.
The result is the creation of unique, elegant and contemporary residential spaces, yet extremely functional.
Technical questions
Can raised floors be built on sloping surfaces?
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.
Can the raised floor be used in humid environments such as bathrooms and/or kitchens?
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.
Can the same material be used for the raised floor both inside and outside the building?
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.
What is the load-bearing capacity of a raised floor with safes and heavy furniture?
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.
