Rocks On’s latest curation of world-class porcelain products covers all bases and surfaces, bringing options to the table for all specifiers and client budgets.

Specifier Spotlight: Harnessing the panache of porcelain stoneware with Rocks On

Originating in China millennia ago, porcelain stoneware has become a non-porous, durable solution for walls, floors, kitchens and bathrooms that breathe life into interior spaces. With a higher stain resistance than marble or natural stone, the natural beauty of porcelain carries a certain sense of conviction and grandeur.

Porcelain’s qualities ensure it is impervious to stains, bacteria and mould, keeping benchtops clean with minimal cleaning required. Typically consisting of neutral colours, porcelain fits within any context, bringing an unmatched quality to any interior space – a showpiece, irrespective of the time period or architectural standpoint.

Rocks On has supplied luxury porcelain stoneware to Australian designers for the better part of 20 years. Completely Australian-owned and operated, the company has consistently sourced porcelain products of the utmost quality. A trusted confidant of Australian architects, builders and interior designers, Rocks On’s products are technologically advanced, and curated from across the globe.

Rocks On’s latest product offering reflect the company’s core values, offering cutting edge porcelain stoneware solutions that suit a variety of applications. RXON XL Slabs, PROTECT and Keralite Easy give specifiers the choice of three made to order porcelain surfaces.

RXON XL SLABS

With an extensive range of porcelain slabs design for internal and external wall cladding, kitchen and vanity bench tops, splashbacks, tables and furniture, RXON XL SLABS take the less is more approach.

The detailed effect of the slabs decorate spaces with natural simplicity. Possessing limitless creative potential, the large formats acquire even more earthy, expressive strength – with a totally natural touch.

These large slabs are ideal for designing luxurious high-impact environments that leave an impression on those who enter the room. The range is available in a huge range of colours, finishes and effects that can be used for internal and external applications.

PROTECT

PROTECT is an exclusive line of extremely high-performance antibacterial porcelain tile and slab ranges that are specifically created to keep bacteria at bay , doing away with types of bacteria that cause biofilms, bad odours and cross contamination.

Killing up to 99.9% of bacteria, PROTECT materials have eternal effectiveness against germs, without affecting the wider environment or human wellbeing.

KERLITE EASY

Kerlite Easy is the clear alternative to thick slabs, with it’s ultra-thin porcelain resulting in a unique, ground-breaking floating floor system.
