Full slab Porcelain has been used in homes in Europe for a long time, but they have just recently taken over the U.S. market and became very popular amongst homeowners.
They are designed to last a very long time while having all features of the natural stone favorites such as marble or granite, just without the hassle.
The keywords to describe full slab porcelain are: low maintenance, practical, and timeless, all at a great price.
What does this mean to you, as you are looking to upgrade your home’s value and invest into its future?
Let’s talk these characteristics over and see how they can be used in any bathrooms.
What is full slab porcelain?
Full slab porcelain is man-made, manufactured out of mixing white china clay and powdered china stone, heated at about 2640 Fahrenheit, and covered in a pigmented glaze to give an aesthetic appeal and resemble natural stones like marble and quartzite.
They have mostly been used in Europe so far, but luckily, they are becoming more and more popular in the United States, and nowadays oftentimes preferred over marble and granite in many American households.
Thanks to full slab porcelain being man-made, they are extremely durable and versatile, and a bonus is that they are non-porous, so they are heat, scratch and chip resistant.
Why should I choose full slab porcelain for my countertops?
As we just mentioned, porcelain has literally the most perfect characteristics for any bathrooms:
- heat-resistant,
- stain-resistant & low maintenance,
- scratch and chip-resistant, and
- non-porous.
Let’s unpack all these amazing features!
Heat resistant: since they are made at very high temperature, porcelain slabs can take extreme heat without any damage – yes, this means your favorite hair appliances as well that you could now safely leave on your porcelain countertop as you are getting ready to do your hair.
Stain-resistant & low-maintenance: porcelain slabs absorb little to no moisture, so any spills could easily be wiped off with a soft damp cloth and mild detergent - all this without any sealing needed!
Scratch and chip-resistant: these slabs are lightweight but very strong and will stay the same even after daily and extensive use, making it the perfect material to use anywhere in your bathroom or your home.
Non-porous: while they imitate natural stones, they are not as fragile and their non-porous characteristic allows them to be stain resistant since there are no pores for any unwanted liquid to absorb.
How do they work as full slab shower panels?
Porcelain full slab shower panels are really all about combining practicality with high-end aesthetics in your bathroom.
They are harder, less porous and more durable than regular ceramic tiles or natural stones like granite or marble and make the perfect groutless material for any style of bathrooms.
These porcelain slabs are easy to clean and maintain, they are water-resistant and absolutely hygienic, so you needn’t worry about any bacteria absorbing and causing unpleasant odors in your bathroom.
Pro tip on full slab porcelain: they are not only the perfect choice for your shower walls but also anywhere in your bathroom including other walls or even the floor.

Testimonial
We are so pleased with our new countertops. We own a rental home in Kissimmee, Fl but we live in Chicago. We were a little apprehensive about finding the right person to do the job for us. We found Zsolt Granite using the internet and decided to give them a call because of the positive reviews. Dwight from Zsolt Granite called us back the next day and we set up a time for him to go to our home to do an estimate. He did so promptly and called back with a favorable estimate. After deciding to go with this company, Dwight sent us pictures of different granite colors and answered our many questions regarding the project.
We arrived yesterday to our Florida home and we couldn't be more pleased with the job. The countertops are just beautiful. I was so impressed with the workmanship and how clean they left our home. I'm sure there must have been a lot of dust and debris from the removal of the old countertops but there was no evidence of them being here other than the beautiful finished job.
I would highly recommend this company mainly because:l. Their quote was the best of the 3 other companies
2. Dwight returned our call/email within a few hours with any questions or concerns
3. The workmanship is top notch
4. They are very respectful of your home; cleaning up after the project is complete.
