Laminam Emperador Extra takes inspiration from the natural Emperador marble in its different quality. Also known as Marrón Emperador is a dark-coloured marble with an unrivalled elegance that can be wonderfully mixed with various other materials to bring refinement to any space. A trait that both architects and interior designers value and employ frequently in their designs.
Laminam Spa was the first company to create a new unseen large size ceramic worktop with minimal thicknesses in 2001. With Italian design and manufacturing blended with stunning materials, the 324 x 162 cm extra-large surface offers a modern and industrial feel without compromising excellent performance.
Description & Features
The plentiful golden veins on a stunning brown backdrop are what make Emperador Extra by Laminam an instant classic surface. Its elegant pattern offers an alternative option to create sophisticated, modern spaces. One of the main characteristics of this porcelain with marble effect is that you will never need to seal it because, in contrast with the natural marble that it recreates, it offers a non-absorbent work surface.
Sustainable Worktop
Because Emperador Extra is an Eco-Friendly brand, it uses 94 per cent of organic products. Therefore, the remaining 6% comprises enamels, glass and colouring ( 4% of the total). Similarly, the surface uses only 2% adhesives and fibres.
Laminam Emperador Extra provides four main advantages.
- Non-absorbent: It gives a surface with zero water absorption easy and quick to maintain. You can check its highly resistant attributes by ordering a sample.
- Natural material boasts an intelligent manufacturing system that recycles raw materials such as granite, glass, and marble. Therefore, it is a 100% recycled worktop surface.
- Versatile Surface: The brand looks for richer natural resources, comprising over 1,000 samples in its design database. But it only uses the best surfaces as a base for its designs.
- Durable worktop: Before using the raw materials, several laboratory tests undergo. Not only that it certify its styling appeal, but it also ensures its superior technical characteristics. In addition to testing, the manufacturer offers a 25-year warranty on its Laminam worktops.
Caring for your Laminam surfaces
You can clean Laminam quickly. Therefore, you won’t have to spend time deep-cleaning your counters. Instead, follow these three easy steps to ensure your kitchen and bathrooms remain germ-free and pristine:
- Daily cleaning: Use hot water and a neutral detergent with a soft cloth or sponge. Then, rinse thoroughly with warm water and dry with a clean, soft towel. But avoid using wax-containing products to avoid matte streaks. Stains that you don’t clean quickly may leave traces on the surface. But, again, it depends on the tolerance of the individual type of finish.
- Tough Stains: To remove stains or extremely stubborn residues from LAMINAM Emperador Extra, start by cleaning them with hot water and a neutral detergent.
If this does not remove the stain, employ more abrasive cleansers. For example, you can use non-abrasive neutral pH detergents or slightly abrasive detergents. Similarly, you can use acid or alkali detergents or solvent-based detergents. Contact your worktop supplier for further instructions if you are still in doubt. - Disinfecting: Generally, it becomes clean and sterilized when scrubbing the surface with water and a neutral detergent. You can use disinfecting wipes, alcohol, or diluted bleach for deep disinfection. Please ensure you follow the instructions on the cleaning product’s label.
Laminam Emperador Extra Material Attributes
Emperador Extra porcelain’s main characteristic lies in its high resistance to wear, with a high level of scratch, abrasion and stain resistance properties.
- Eco-Surface: Laminam is relatively simple to care for. Because it has virtually zero water absorption, it does not require extreme care, such as sealing the surface from time to time, as you may do with other stone worktops.
- Recycled Materials: Each Laminam surface comprises 20 and 40% pre-consumer recycled material, depending on the finish. In addition, you can quickly grind and recycle it into various other products.
- Incredibly Resistant to Stains: The worktops offer a non-absorbent surface. Therefore, Laminam is simple to clean without changing its properties. All you will require is soapy water and a cloth. On the contrary, the only agent that can damage the slabs is hydrofluoric acid.
- Natural Product: Emperador Extra by Laminam uses clays, feldspars and silicon are the primary materials to create its countertops. They have all been carefully put together and chosen. Therefore, the first objective is to ensure an even, impurity-free composition.
- Varied Thickness: Laminam provides surfaces in various thicknesses, ensuring the same surface qualities across all product thicknesses. You can choose from thicknesses of 3 mm, 5 mm, 12 mm and 20 mm.
- 25-year manufacturer's warranty: Laminam boasts a 25-year manufacturer's warranty that you can quickly register upon your project's completion.

A 25-year guarantee backs the incredible performance features of Emperador Extra by Laminam.
After filling out its simple warrant form, you can activate your purchase. Then, you can enjoy decades of worry-free surfaces.
Laminam Emperador Extra is extremely strong and durable: its virtually zero water absorption feature makes it highly resistant to scratches and stains whilst ensuring that the surface does not degrade over time. A 10-year manufacturer's warranty is a testimony to the resistance and durability of LAMINAM.
The two key differences between these materials are that marble is a natural stone presenting porosity and containing calcium carbonate, making it susceptible to stains and etching. On the other hand, Laminam Emperador Extra is non-porous, making it impervious to liquids whilst having a surface that isn't etched or stained when exposed to acidic liquids and other common household substances.
Instead of being standard porcelain, LAMINAM Emperador Extra is a 3D full-body porcelain surface with see-through patterns on its edges. Compared to traditional ceramic, it offers outstanding quality, better performance capabilities, and improved environmentally friendly production methods.
