design of innovative surfaces for architecture and design, is reinventing bathrooms by creating
unique, beautiful, functional designs thanks to Dekton®, its revolutionary ultra-compact surface,

Dekton®’s technical properties make it the perfect choice for use in bathrooms, one of the most
important spaces which is most central to the design of homes, hotels, restaurants, hospitals,
airports, etc. Dekton® offers reduced water absorption thanks to its low porosity, high stain
resistance which makes its day-to-day maintenance easier, and it can be produced in large
format units (up to 320cm x 144cm), which considerably reduce the number of visible joints and

Cosentino: the fusion of aesthetics and functionality.
In 2017, Cosentino launched five sink models created using Dekton® onto the market:
Equilibrium, Nova, Reflection, Silence and Simplicity. Thanks to the large format concept, it’s
possible to create sinks of up to 3 metres long, which can cover large areas and minimise the
number of joints. There’s no doubt about it: it’s a revolution for the world of architecture and
interior design.
Another of Cosentino’s major recent launches in this sector was the HLine collection, which is
easy to clean and therefore specifically aimed at the hospitality sector. HLine offers a sink
solution in the form of a Dekton® countertop and a ceramic sink.
All the features in the Cosentino bathroom collection are available in over 40 colours, which
together make up the Dekton® colour range. Texture and colour are the stars of the show,
thanks to this revolutionary surface which offers a variety of exclusive finishes, such as industrial,
cement, untreated wood and natural stone.
The Cosentino bathroom collection allows architects and designers to transform bathrooms into
a unique, remarkable, and instantly captivating space.
