Clients will be able to access the 30-plus color palette of Miraton this summer alongside seven new colors from the company’s top-of-the-line countertop imprints, HanStone and Hanex through its distributors. All Hanwha L&C USA premium product lines and colors in development will be on display at this year’s Kitchen/Bath Industry Show (K/BIS), May 1-3, 2009 in Atlanta, Georgia.
Miraton is the next generation in premium quartz surfacing, suitable for a wide range of applications, including flooring, interior wall cladding, and vanities. Miraton is dense, non-porous, stain-resistant and requires virtually no maintenance, ideal for both commercial and residential applications. The color palette ranges from soothing earth tones and bold dark shades to vivid complexions and bright hues, communicating exquisite luxury and sophistication. Commercial installation of Miraton currently includes major airports and high-end retail establishments. Through introduction of Miraton, Hanwha L&C USA continues to expand its products lines to become the one-stop surfacing manufacturer for all application.
 “Miraton reflects Hanwha L&C USA’s continued dedication to being the surface authority, covering counter-tops, walls and now flooring,” states Dr. Daniel Yu, President, Hanwha L&C North America. “We are proud to offer all our commercial and residential customers the most extensive, most opulent and most durable surfacing products in the industry”.
In addition to the Miraton line, Hanwha L&C USA will extend the color offerings to its innovative HanStone and Hanex brands, by introducing eight HanStone concept patterns along with Brionne 2 and Hanex colors this summer. As evident in all of Hanwha L&C USA brands, HanStone and Hanex imprints are made only from top of the line materials, resulting in rich and luxurious products that maintain their look and have a broad appeal.
With Hanwha L&C USA’s extensive range of offerings, architects and designers now have the ability to satisfy their surfacing needs in one place. Hanwha L&C USA also offers an AIA registered continuous education program about Solid Surfaces and Quartz Surfacing for architects.
The upcoming 30-plus Miraton color palette and the extended color line from HanStone and Hanex are available via qualified distributors and retailers throughout North America this summer.
