The main difference between Keope Smart and the Keope premium range lies in their market positioning. Smart is Ceramiche Keope’s value range, designed to meet the needs of the mid-range segment with a minimalist, contemporary aesthetic, focused on the most sought-after trends and an optimized selection of sizes, finishes, and colors.

The two lines are not in competition: Smart complements the Premium range, together offering a comprehensive solution for every design and commercial need. Quality remains exceptionally high, as both are produced in Italy and share the same manufacturing standards and international certifications.

Ceramiche Keope sells exclusively through selected local retailers, both in Italy and abroad. The Smart collections are also available at Keope retail locations. To find the nearest retailer, you can fill out the dedicated form on the contact page of the website.

Yes, Keope Smart porcelain tile is designed to simplify installation. The reduced thickness of the lighter, more manageable tiles makes on-site work easier and reduces time and effort for professionals. This feature also makes it particularly suitable for renovations.

Yes, Keope Smart tiles are perfectly compatible with underfloor heating systems. Porcelain tile has excellent thermal conductivity, which promotes rapid and efficient heat transfer from the system to the room. The reduced thickness of 8 mm in the Smart range further enhances this efficiency, ensuring even more efficient heat diffusion compared to less conductive materials.

Yes, the Smart range is specifically designed to ensure complete visual continuity indoors and outdoors for your projects. Our porcelain tile collections offer smooth R9 or R10 finishes perfect for interiors, and high slip-resistance R11 finishes for exteriors. For outdoor areas subject to heavy traffic or intense weather conditions, we recommend the 20 mm thick tiles, ideal for safely paving terraces, pool decks, and gardens.

Yes, a grout line is always necessary to allow the floor to accommodate the normal structural movements of the subfloor, preventing breakage. However, the size varies: if you purchase rectified Smart tiles (i.e., with perfectly squared edges), it is possible to create a minimum grout line of just 2 mm, resulting in a floor with a seamless, refined, and elegant effect, particularly suited for modern design.

The introduction of the reduced 8 mm thickness for certain Keope Smart collections offers concrete and measurable environmental benefits compared to the traditional 9 mm format. The main benefits associated with this sustainable choice include:

Reduction in raw materials: Using a thinner thickness allows for lower consumption of natural resources, ensuring an 8% reduction in raw material use, without compromising on the strength and final quality of the product

Lower production impact: Optimizing industrial processes for the 8 mm thickness reduces water consumption by 6% and simultaneously cuts CO2 emissions by 6%

Smart and optimized logistics: Since the tiles are lighter and thinner, more tiles can be packed into each individual box

Circular economy: In support of the reduced thickness, the range features an eco-friendly core characterized by the use of mixtures containing 25% recycled material (pre-consumer), giving new life to production waste and further minimizing the ecological footprint
