Era by Casalgrande

Collection Summary

Era by Casalgrande Padana is a stone-effect porcelain stoneware collection that pairs the look of natural stone with porcelain’s technical performance. Irregular veining, harmonious nuvolato (cloud-like) effects, and delicate colors define the surface. Six colors, Bianca, Perla, Crema, Grigia, Pepe, and Bruna, come in matte and Grip finishes from 12×24″ to 47×47″ at 9 mm, as 47×110″ panels at 6 mm, and as 20 mm Grip pavers. Mosaics, listelli, and a composition piece complete the range.

Design & Aesthetic

Era’s veining is irregular rather than repeating, and its nuvolato shading softens transitions across each tile, which keeps large formats from reading as printed. The palette divides into lighter tones (Bianca, Perla, Crema) and deeper ones (Grigia, Pepe, Bruna), and the mosaic listelli follow that split: Listelli A combines Bianca, Grigia, and Pepe, while Listelli B combines Perla, Crema, and Bruna. Casalgrande Padana also notes a pleasant tactile quality. Tile X Design rates the collection V2.

Design Applications

Tile X Design lists Era for floors, walls, shower floors, and outdoor areas. The range supports a complete stone scheme in one color: 47×110″ panels for low-joint walls or feature surfaces, 9 mm field tiles for floors, mosaics for shower floors, and 20 mm Grip pavers for terraces. Tile X Design also associates Era with countertops, fireplace surrounds, and feature walls. Manufacturer trims include bullnose, step treads, and assembled corner pieces.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Era by Casalgrande Padana match an interior floor on an outdoor terrace?

Yes. Era offers 24×24″ and 24×47″ in 9 mm Matte for interiors and in 20 mm Grip for exteriors, in the same colors.

Which Era mosaic goes with my color?

Listelli A combines Bianca, Grigia, and Pepe; Listelli B combines Perla, Crema, and Bruna. The 2×2″ and 2×6″ mosaics are also listed for the collection.

When should I choose the 47×110″ Era panel?

Use the 6 mm panel where fewer joints matter, such as large walls and feature surfaces. Confirm panel suitability for floors or countertops with the Technical Features sheet.

Is Era suitable for a shower floor?

Tile X Design lists Shower Floor as an application. Use the mosaic formats and confirm the slip rating against the project requirements.
