That depends on the printing process. Cheap PVC panels use 2D decors with a visible raster — you can spot them instantly. Our SPC panels use high-resolution 4K scans of real stone slabs plus a textured PU surface. At 30 cm distance, the result is barely distinguishable from a real marble tile.

Design-wise yes, but we recommend one dominant marble per room. Different decors side by side quickly start to feel restless. Better: marble as a feature wall in the living room or bathroom, the other walls in neutral white or grey.

Yes, extremely well. The SPC core is 100% waterproof, and unlike real marble the PU surface is acid-resistant and stain-resistant — limescale, soap residue or acidic cleaners leave no damage. That makes marble look panels the low-maintenance luxury alternative to real marble tiles in the bathroom, including the vanity area and shower (seal the joints with silicone).

Far more easily than real marble. A damp microfibre cloth with a pH-neutral cleaner is enough for everyday care. Because the PU seal is acid-resistant, you can — unlike with real marble — also use bathroom and limescale cleaners without risking dull patches. Avoid abrasive scouring agents, steel wool and solvent-based cleaners to protect the surface.

With mounting adhesive on the wall, joined to each other by the drop-click system — no grout needed. The 4 mm panels click into one another and mount directly onto a flat substrate or onto firmly bonded existing tiles; unevenness up to 3 mm is no problem. A utility knife is enough for cutting. Because no grout grid appears, the marble wall looks almost seamless — the effect once reserved for real large-format marble slabs.
