MINERALIKO is the new ARKdeko'®Design continuous floor, formulated in a mineral compound, enhanced by the natural vibrations of mica flakes. It can be customized in soft pastel colors, which reveal the minerality of the surface dotted with quartz, carborundum, hematites, natural oxides and crystalline cement.
IN OUR RESEARCH FOR INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS FOR COVERINGS, USING PRODUCTS EVER CLOSER TO HUMAN NATURE, WE HAVE CHOSEN THE NATURAL VIBRATIONS OF MINERALS, WITH THE AIM OF EXPERIENCING WELLNESS SURROUNDED BY A PRESTIGIOUS FLOOR.
THE COLOR COMBINATIONS AND THE LIGHT SHADES OF THE SURFACE ARE CHARACTERIZED BY THE MINERALS THAT EMERGE ON THE SURFACE, WITH GLASSY PEARLY FACETS, SUCH AS TINY CRYSTALS OF ZIRCON, GARNET, TOURMALINE, MAGNETITE, HEMATITE. THE SELECTED MINERALS ARE EXTRACTED FROM IGNEOUS, METAMORPHIC AND SEDIMENTARY ROCKS.
About MINERALIKO
MINERALIKO was born in the ARKdeko'® Design Lab as a surface on a human scale, which recalls the origins of craftsmanship based on cement, aggregates and limes, based on the precious tradition of beaten flooring such as terraces or cocciopesto, but makes a extremely innovative leap, combining excellent mechanical strength and breathability given by the contribution of cement, to extremely hard minerals and fibers that mitigate their strength. Thanks to the balancing of the compound, it is possible to create large surfaces with reduced thicknesses, starting from 4mm, on new screeds or existing floors, after checking the application conditions and adequate staff training. A professional product reserved exclusively for ARKdeko'® qualified artisans.
A JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH
The natural vibrations of mica constitute a combination of minerals. Potassium, present in the granite rocks from which the MINERALIKO mica are mainly extracted, whose symbol is K from the initial of the Latin name kalium, is a soft, silvery-white alkaline metal found in nature combined with other elements both in water of sea and in many other mineral combinations. We have selected the best extractions for a superior aesthetic result.
