The company LASSELSBERGER, s.r.o. has introduced a new collection of ceramic wall and floor tiles RAKO 2009

January 2009 – Plzeň
The new RAKO 2009 collection consists of nineteen new series, ten of them designed for bathrooms, two for kitchens, and seven for aesthetic and functional flooring.

The unifying elements for all traditional bathroom series are attractive surfaces imitating textile structures, in formats suitable both for modern horizontal and vertical facing. The main concept in miscellaneous types of decorations - sophisticated simplicity in harmony with perfect functionality – is obvious, and the Canape, Tulip and Coral series are good examples. An innovative series named Mikado is just magic – the crayon decorating and intensive colour shades are the best choice for parents creating a children’s bathroom or anyone keen on modern shapes and decorations. New and attractive large-size formats of calibrated tiles; 29.8x59.8 cm and 29.8x89.8 cm in matt and bright white versions will definitely attract those who follow new trends in the minimalist style. Luxurious and truly remarkable decorations in synergy with white tiling will draw out areas that would otherwise look compact. What’s more, all of the above-mentioned will be in perfect accord with the most successful series of interior RAKO paving.

For kitchens in 2009, the brand name “RAKO” brings a comprehensive series for complete lining to be installed in kitchens and adjacent areas or other parts of the house, to establish a unified design. Elegant flooring, as well as the wall, is made of Savana paving, based on the colour variability and compatibility with modern decorations. The new Savana ceramic mosaic is the solution for facing in seemingly inaccessible places. Another, truly sophisticated design is hidden in Defile lapped paving, combining matte and glossy surfaces. Full calibration of all elements in the Defile series allows installation with minimum gaps. Due to this obvious advantage, you can create homogenous paving while establishing an atmosphere of unity and cleanliness, without useless details or accessories. It is the sober decorations and organic macrostructures that change the seemingly strict series to an absolute favourite for perfect interiors.

As regards the flooring assortment in 2009, RAKO offers various styles in order to create both extraordinary or merely functional and simple interiors. Either comfortable or modern houses – the design of the paving is timeless, offering the uncompromising quality of Galileo and Sandstone Plus at friendly prices. The Galileo is a favourite for outdoor applications due to its anti-skid properties while the Sandstone Plus is the second generation of the existing successful series of modern design with a nearly unlimited range of applications. Two new series have been developed in response to increasingly popular natural materials. The presently used technologies produce goods of a relevant design inspired by nature while the advantages of ceramic materials are maintained as well. Zingana calibrated modular paving is manufactured in formats of 30x60, 15x60 and 10x60 cm. The super-modern character of the series is achieved by a combination of a unique polished surface with an impressive metallic effect. Thus Zingana represents the design of wood in a truly cosmic form. Conversely, the typically “wooden” Noe lining will catch your eye with its drawing and format – since it tends to look like real wood. Combinable calibrated paving produced in various widths, length of 120 cm, represents unlimited colour combination options created on the customer’s wish. This series is the best material for floor heating systems. The Diamond and Riverberi series are luxury concepts of paving, with sophisticated decorations. The paving - gres porcellanato smaltato – formats of 30x60, 60x60 and even 60x120 cm – is a clear response to current requirements on the maximisation of formats under extraordinary quality standards.
