With its new Urban Life porcelain tile collection series, leading Turkish ceramic manufacturer VitrA has successfully combined the essence of city life.
The 13 lines of the porcelain collection are all individualistic and elegant in their design elements as well as being durable and resistant enough for everyday use.

Designed with that in mind, VitrA’s Urban Life tiles are not just stunning to look at, but make a highly functional statement on contemporary urban living. Combining eye-catching elegance with hardwearing, slip-resistant and easy-to-clean performance, this series provides the finest surfaces for the most demanding, high traffic and high-end environments such as airports, cafés, automobile showrooms, shopping malls, museums and galleries,” says a company spokesperson.
The solid-coloured porcelain tiles convey to urban areas a modern ambience, uniting advanced design with a wide range of uses. Their rugged surface offers resistance to scratches, wear and tear, water, frost and other external impacts, he adds.
