Did you know?

Inalco is distinct in its approach. Rather than following a conventional tile route to market, the material was developed through collaboration with leading kitchen, furniture and bathroom brands — specifying surfaces for the highest level of design.

This shifts the conversation away from fixed tile formats. Working with large-format MDi slabs, surfaces can be cut to the exact dimensions required, allowing walls, floors, furniture and architectural elements to be resolved as a continuous material.

In practice, this opens up a far broader design language — aligning naturally with brands such as Rimadesio, Boffi, Poliform, SieMatic and Leicht, making it particularly relevant for architects and design-led studios. A more progressive way of thinking about surfaces with its own distinct material expression.
