New Dekton® Slim by Cosentino – A Thin, Lightweight Design Solution

The global leader in the production and distribution of innovative surfaces for architecture and design, the Cosentino Group, is delighted to announce the introduction of new Dekton® Slim, a ground breaking 4mm thickness for select colours from its award-winning ultra-compact surface brand.  Slim is a whole new revolution in surfaces for architecture and building projects – it combines the amazing technical and mechanical features that Dekton® is known for with a new and much thinner, lighter and manageable format for installation.

With its reduced thickness (4 mm) and weight (10 kg/m2), Dekton® Slim is the ideal, high-performance covering for a range of projects, including wall cladding or kitchen and bathroom furniture.  Developed in response to overwhelming demand, the new 4mm thickness opens up a range of creative possibilities.

Ideal for bathrooms, Dekton® Slim retains the benefits of standard Dekton®.  Manufactured using an innovative ultra-compaction process, Slim is highly resistant to scratches, stains, thermal shock and ultraviolet rays, with no special maintenance required.  With slabs up to 3200x1400mm available, Dekton® ensures fewer joints in the bathroom, resulting in a premium look.

Dekton® Slim is also the perfect covering for minimalist kitchen designs, from hard-wearing table tops and cupboard doors to splashbacks and wall cladding.  Ideal for busy family homes or properties intended for tenancy, Dekton® offers a high resistance to scratches, heat, fire and stains, making it a practical choice.

Due to its thin thickness and ultra-lightweight properties (10kg/m2), Dekton® Slim is easier to cut, transport and install, with adjustments on site using ceramic tile tools possible.  In addition, Dekton® Slim is available at a lower price point, making it possible to save money on installation whilst still having a high-end, reliable brand.

Paul Gidley, area manager for Cosentino UK, says, “With potential buyers expecting kitchen materials of the highest quality, Dekton® is a brand name that offers the benefits of an extensive after-care service, with our professional, friendly team of dedicated Sales Managers on hand throughout Ireland.  We’re delighted with the initial response to this launch, and are confident it will be popular with architects, housebuilders and designers alike.”

Initially, the new 4mm Slim option is available in select Dekton® colours, including Opera, Zenith, Sirocco, Kelya, Sirius and Kreta.  With urban grey tones and concrete-inspired materials becoming increasingly popular in contemporary new build developments, this curated selection of designs caters to this trend, whilst also providing timeless styles such as marble-look Opera and natural-hued Zenith.
