Navona Vein Product Story

Specify Navona Vein in Natural (R9) for interior walls and floors in living areas, kitchens, bathrooms and high-traffic or commercial spaces; Natural (R10) for interior floors and walls, including bathrooms and commercial areas; Structured (R11) for the same, as well as terraces and balconies; and Grip (R11) in 20mm for garden paving and raised pedestal systems, so the colour carries from interior to exterior. Slabs up to 1200 × 2780mm extend it to seamless wall cladding, seamless floors, worktops and islands, vanity tops and basins, tables and furniture, and fireplace and bath surrounds. Every size is rectified for narrow, consistent joints, in thicknesses from 6mm to 20mm, and the collection can contribute to BREEAM and LEED assessments. Navona Vein has slight tonal variation (V2): consistent overall, with subtle depth up close.

Specifying Navona Vein

Can Navona Vein run continuously from interior to exterior?

Yes. Natural, Natural R10 and Structured suit interior floors and Structured and Grip suit terraces and balconies, so the same colour carries across the threshold. Grip is available in 20mm for garden paving and raised pedestal systems. Surface texture differs between finishes, so review samples of each side by side.

What is the largest format of Navona Vein?

The largest format is 1200 × 2780mm (3.34 m² per piece), available in Natural. As a full slab it allows seamless wall and floor surfaces with minimal joints, and can be fabricated into worktops, vanity tops and basins, and furniture.

Which finish of Navona Vein should I specify for each area?

Based on each finish's slip rating, thickness and format:

  • Natural (R9, 6/9mm) — interior floors in living areas, hallways, kitchens, bathrooms and high-traffic or commercial spaces (not showers or wet areas); interior walls; large-format surfaces: seamless walls, seamless floors, worktops and islands, vanity tops and basins, tables and furniture, fireplace and bath surrounds.
  • Natural R10 (9mm) — all interior floors, including wet, high-traffic and commercial areas; interior walls.
  • Structured (R11, 9mm) — all interior floors, including wet, high-traffic and commercial areas; interior walls; exterior: balconies and patios on a solid base.
  • Grip (R11, 20mm) — exterior: balconies and patios on a solid base, garden paving and raised pedestals.

What thicknesses are available, and what are they for?

  • 6mm (Natural) — lightweight wall and floor surfaces, and cladding of worktops and furniture.
  • 9mm (Natural, Natural R10 and Structured) — interior floors and walls.
  • 20mm (Grip) — exterior paving, including garden and raised pedestal installations.

Is Navona Vein rectified?

Yes. Every size is rectified: the edges are cut to precise dimensions after firing, allowing narrow, consistent joints. Confirm minimum joint widths for the format with the installer and adhesive manufacturer.

How much shade variation should I allow for?

Navona Vein is rated V2 (slight variation). Expect a consistent appearance from piece to piece. For large or phased projects, order the full quantity from a single production batch.

What does Navona Vein weigh?

Check substrate and fixing requirements for wall cladding, upper floors and furniture. By thickness:

  • 6mm — 14.9 kg/m²
  • 9mm — 20.8–21.9 kg/m²
  • 20mm — 43.8–44.4 kg/m²

Are there matching special pieces or decors?

Yes: special pieces (Skirting Tile). Sizes and finishes are listed in the Sizes & Finishes table.

What sustainability credentials does Navona Vein have?

Navona Vein can contribute to BREEAM and LEED building assessments and meets EU Ecolabel, GREENGUARD and NSF requirements. Supporting documentation is available on request for project submissions.

Can I order samples?

Yes. Samples are available in Natural, Natural R10, Structured and Grip. Use the Order free sample button to choose the finishes you need.

Shade Variation

Travertine Sense Navona Vein is rated V2 (slight variation).

Shade variation ratings V1 to V4 compared

Shade variation describes how much colour, tone and pattern differ from tile to tile in the same batch, from V1 (uniform appearance) to V4 (substantial variation). Lay out tiles from several boxes before fixing to see the full range.

Slip Resistance

Travertine Sense Navona Vein has been slip tested using the DIN 51130 ramp test. Results by finish:

FinishR ratingSlip resistance
Natural R9 Minimal
Natural R10 R10 Normal
Structured R11 Good
Grip R11 Good

R ratings run from R9 (minimal slip resistance) to R13 (very high). They classify how a surface performs in the ramp test and are not the angle a floor can safely be laid at. Ramp test (DIN 51130) and pendulum test (BS 7976-2) certificates are available on request.
