Designa`s Innovative Technology

Tailor-made solutions to shape your ideas with precision and efficiency.

Where Vision Meets Engineering Excellence

At Designa Surfaces, innovation is not a department — it is our DNA. From the moment a design concept takes shape to the final porcelain masterpiece, every process is governed by the spirit of technological evolution. We believe that innovation is not about following trends but creating them — setting new benchmarks for how architecture and materials interact.


Over the decades, our R&D and design teams have continuously reimagined what’s possible in porcelain. By merging advanced digital technologies, sustainable processes, and the finesse of Italian design philosophy, we have developed a production system that delivers both artistic expression and architectural strength.


Our technological ecosystem is built around three pillars — precision, performance, and perfection — ensuring that each surface embodies the synergy of art and science.


Digital Surface Innovation

The art of porcelain at Designa begins in the digital realm. Our design laboratories use 3D scanning and high-resolution imaging to capture the intricate details of natural stones, marbles, metals, and other materials. These digital blueprints form the foundation for our surface design process, where technology transforms inspiration into tangible perfection.


Using multi-layer digital inkjet printing, we recreate natural depth and variation that rivals authentic stone. Each tile or slab undergoes multiple print passes, layering colors, veining, and micro-textures with sub-millimeter precision.


Our Color Fusion Technology ensures continuity and harmony across large surfaces, allowing slabs to merge seamlessly in architectural layouts. The result — a product that feels as natural as it looks, yet performs far beyond what nature alone can provide.


“We don’t imitate nature — we interpret it through innovation.”


Advanced Material Science

Porcelain is a material of possibilities — and at Designa, we continuously push its limits through advanced material engineering. Our innovation begins with raw materials, where every mineral is carefully selected and optimized for performance.


Through our proprietary Fine Matrix Composition process, raw materials undergo particle refinement and homogenization, resulting in ultra-dense porcelain bodies with remarkable flexural strength and zero water absorption.


The precision of particle size control and high-pressure pressing (up to 7200 tons) ensures flawless compaction. This meticulous control over material science enables us to create largeformat slabs that are exceptionally strong, lightweight, and dimensionally stable.


Our innovation team works in collaboration with global research institutes to continuously refine our formulations — ensuring that Designa porcelain not only meets but exceeds international standards such as ISO 10545 and ASTM C373.


3D Surface Texture Engineering

Beyond color and design lies texture — the tactile expression of a surface. Designa’s 3D Surface Texture Engineering technology creates multi-dimensional finishes that replicate the touch and feel of natural stone, wood, and concrete.


Using precision-controlled laser engraving and digital glaze layering, we achieve surface depths of up to 1.2mm, allowing light to interact naturally across the tile. Whether it’s a polished marble finish or a rough-hewn stone texture, every Designa surface carries a sensory signature — made for both beauty and performance.


Our advanced micro-embossing systems ensure that textures align perfectly with digital prints, creating a synchronized realism between visual and tactile sensations. This combination of technology and artistry has made Designa a preferred brand among architects who seek authenticity in every detail.


High-Definition Printing & Glazing

Designa employs HD+ digital glazing systems capable of rendering over 50 million color combinations with pixel-perfect accuracy. These printers, developed in collaboration with leading European manufacturers, allow for multi-layered designs, seamless book-match patterns, and natural gradients across slabs.


Each ink and glaze used in our process is formulated for high resistance to UV radiation, abrasion, and chemical exposure — ensuring that the surface beauty lasts as long as its strength.


To achieve our renowned whiteness and color stability, Designa uses nano-engineered glazes that resist yellowing and fading, even under direct sunlight or high humidity conditions.



Nano Polishing & Surface Finishing

Surface finishing at Designa is both science and art. Our nano-polishing technology refines porcelain to achieve finishes ranging from mirror-like gloss to ultra-matte or satin touch.


Through the use of micro-abrasive compounds and controlled rotation systems, each slab is polished with microscopic precision, revealing clarity and depth unparalleled in traditional finishes.


For architects seeking natural elegance, our Soft Touch and Silk Finish surfaces offer a smooth tactile experience with low light reflection — ideal for interiors that demand refinement and subtlety.


For outdoor and commercial environments, our GripTech Anti-Slip surfaces provide superior traction without compromising design. The surface remains visually smooth but functionally safe — a perfect blend of form and purpose.


Thermal and Dimensional Stability

Every Designa slab is engineered to perform under extreme conditions. Our proprietary Thermo-Resist Matrix ensures dimensional stability across temperature fluctuations, making Designa porcelain ideal for exterior façades, countertops, and high-performance architectural applications.


The low coefficient of thermal expansion and high mechanical strength protect surfaces from cracking or deformation, even in extreme climates.


“Innovation at Designa isn’t just about beauty — it’s about endurance, reliability, and trust in performance.”


AI & Robotics in Production

Designa’s manufacturing lines integrate AI-assisted monitoring systems and robotic handling units to maintain precision at every stage of production. Sensors analyze temperature, pressure, and design alignment in real time — ensuring consistency across thousands of slabs


These intelligent systems reduce human error, optimize resource use, and enhance production efficiency, aligning with our goal of sustainability through innovation.


Our automated sorting and inspection systems use computer vision to detect even microscopic defects, ensuring that only flawless slabs reach the packaging line. Each product is tagged and tracked digitally, creating a fully traceable production lifecycle — from raw material to the architect’s drawing board.


Innovative Applications for Modern Architecture

Innovation at Designa extends far beyond manufacturing — it redefines how surfaces integrate into architecture.


Our porcelain slabs are engineered to perform across an extraordinary range of applications:


  1. Exterior Façades – Lightweight, UV-stable, and thermally efficient for modern building envelopes.

  2. Kitchen & Bathroom Countertops – Non-porous, heat-resistant, and hygienic surfaces for everyday functionality.

  3. Furniture Design – Custom large slabs used for dining tables, wall panels, and designer furnishings.

  4. High-Traffic Commercial Spaces – Anti-scratch and anti-slip finishes ensure performance in public and hospitality projects.


Architects choose Designa because our materials allow them to push the boundaries of imagination — designing spaces that are as durable as they are beautiful.



Design Innovation Meets Sustainability

True innovation cannot exist without responsibility. Every technology introduced at Designa is assessed for environmental impact. Our R&D teams develop glazes and inks with low VOC emissions and invest in closed-loop waste recovery systems.


The energy-efficient kilns we use reduce gas consumption and carbon emissions by up to 30%, while digital glazing minimizes water waste by more than 80%. This alignment between innovation and ecology defines our brand philosophy: Design for beauty, innovate for the planet.


The Future of Designa Innovation

As architecture evolves, so does Designa. We continue to explore AI-integrated design mapping, robotic tile customization, and carbon-neutral production models. Our future lies in convergence — where digital technology, craftsmanship, and environmental ethics create surfaces that redefine the built world.


“At Designa, innovation is endless. Every tile we create is a silent revolution — engineered for the spaces of tomorrow.”
