CELEBRATE DIWALI WITH FESTIVE
COLLECTION BY EPISODE
TILES WITH
A SUGAR FINISH
C
onstantly working to
stay ahead of the market
trends, Orient Bell Limited
has launched its first-of-a-kind
Lapatotiles which give a su-
garcoated finish to your walls
or floors.The thought process
behind this development was to
market a new trend that hasn’t
been tapped into by the industry.
In agreement with their
motto that the best interiors are
a reflection of where one comes
from and a signifier of where
one wants to go, these tiles are
manufactured by going through
a hydraulic press, engobing and
glazing. The special eff ects of
sugar are prepared by mixing
two types of imported granules
mixed at a given ratio depending
on the surface requirement and
applied on the surface through a
brand new technology.
The Lapato tiles, besides
giving a sugar finish, also glitter
when light falls on them. These
sparkling tiles enhance the over-
all look of a living space with
or without impressive décor.
Lapato tiles make for great ad-
ditions to entertaining spaces,
such as living rooms and party
rooms as their sparkling varnish
adds charm and festivity to any
occasion.
Ashish Mehta, president -
sales & marketing of the tiles
company, said “Lapato tiles by
Orient Bell are a new favourite
this festive season as they add a
sparkly finish to rooms, which
works beautifully well with the
mood of Diwali.”
