ISS's mystery new product unveiled - Neolith!!!!

Cape Town’s design, architecture and construction fraternity witnessed the unveiling of a brand new, mystery product toting high expectations as ‘the next big thing’ in design.

The product, often referred to as ‘the extraordinary slab’, was revealed to special guests and the media in spectacular fashion at Selections Warehouse, Wembley Square. Jugglers and a DJ entertained the crowd until the address by the director of World Design Capital 2014, Richard Perez, whereafter the big reveal took place.

Never before available in South Africa, mafia-styled assistants whipped off black cloths to uncover displays of the product in application. Three displays were revealed, each one clad entirely with the product on show. A kitchen display, exterior cladding display and shop fitting display showcased this amazing product’s legendary versatility and variety of colour options.

NEOLITH is a world class, environmentally-friendly, sintered porcelain. One of the many advantages of NEOLITH is that it is innovatively manufactured in an invaluable, large slab size (3650mm x 1250mm); a size previously unheard of in the global market. With an attractive matte finish, and available in neutral, earthy, industrial and striking metallic colours, NEOLITH can be used for work surfaces and paving, as well as furniture, interior and exterior wall cladding.

Architects, designers and consumers will especially appreciate the product’s easy-to-clean, anti-graffiti properties. NEOLITH’s versatility and exceptional durability are set to take the construction and design industries by storm!

NEOLITH is distributed by International Slab Sales (Pty) Ltd. Slabs are available in 5mm and 10mm thicknesses, depending on the application.
