Along with the development of design, materials also evolve. When innovators in the field of the ceramic industry invented a plate with high strength characteristics, while reducing the thickness of the product to a minimum, they received an answer to the request of many architects and designers — the creation of an effective, technological and aesthetic surface.
It is a product of an Italian brand Laminam. This company with a 20-year history produces a unique material that is used both in interior and exterior work. Laminam also experiments in a new direction that is relevant for our time — it develops technologies and equipment for the production of energy from renewable sources.
Laminam ceramic plates are resistant to loads, chemical and mechanical effects, and natural wear. They are easy to wash, they are not afraid of fire and frost. A plaque does not appear on the surfaces and a fungus does not form.
The appearance of the material does not change under the influence of time and weather conditions - the color saturation and texture pattern remain the same. Therefore, the material is used as an exterior and interior decoration, for the production of kitchen countertops and aprons, for the manufacture of sinks.
The main production facilities of the company are located in the Italian city of Fiorano-Modenese in the heart of the province of Modena. Oleg Yan, founder and head of Laminam UA, and Giovanna Ovy, commercial director of Laminam SPA in Central Europe, "brought" Italy to Kiev.
Customers have already fallen in love with the Laminam salon in the capital, but thanks to the appearance of a new exhibition space, there is another opportunity to get acquainted with the brand's assortment.
On the opening day, December 7, guests could immerse themselves in the warm Italian atmosphere, chat with friends and try delicious dishes. After the ceremonial cutting of the ribbon, Oleg Yan spoke with a word of gratitude to his colleagues and the gathered guests.
In his speech, he emphasized that the main achievement of Laminam UA was the unification of partners into a professional community. "When I returned to Ukraine 6 years ago, I had a specific dream - to create a closed club," Oleg shared.

The company closely cooperates with architects, engineers, installers, furniture manufacturers, therefore it is constantly developing and expanding, adding new and new opportunities to the general team of professionals. In addition to the salon in Kyiv, the brand's showrooms are in Dnipro, Odessa and Lviv, and an opening in Kharkiv is coming soon.
For his part, Giovanna Ova emphasized that this past year was a record for the company in terms of the volume of output.
During the festive evening, Laminam kitchen countertops were tested for durability, Hasmik Gasparian, the winner of the "MasterChef" show, tested the sharpness of the knives - she prepared three types of tartar in front of the audience.
