PERFECTING THE PROCESS. LEADING THE MARKET. 8
MODERN PORCELAIN TECHNOLOGY. PROFESSIONAL CRAFTMANSHIP. Moderno Porcelain Works specializes in the installation of high-quality porcelain surfaces in the residential and commercial markets. Sourcing our material from world-renowned suppliers, we install durable and eye-catching kitchen countertops, shower walls, bathroom vanities, fireplaces, and more. Our in-house craftsmen have perfected the art of blending impeccable design and durable beauty in a fraction of the time and cost. By utilizing Moderno’s proprietary equipment and patent-pending techniques, we are able to fabricate our exclusive line of porcelain on-site, making Moderno the superior choice for porcelain surfacing.
MODERNO’S STORY To revolutionize the installation of unique porcelain surfaces, a perfect storm had to take place, one that combined the forces of several powerhouse leaders within the industry: the former CEO and CFO of the largest stone countertop distribution company in North America, the former Global Product Manager of Home Depot who oversaw $1 billion in annual materials purchasing, one of the world’s leading executives in the operations of commercial and new home construction, and the addition of a globally-respected expert who developed the tools and techniques to fabricate and install Moderno’s large format porcelain slabs. Owned and operated by this executive team, Moderno Porcelain Works is exclusively composed of the industry’s premier authority figures in next-level surfacing.

ABUNDANT POTENTIAL
THE MODERNO WAY
As engineered stone production methods advance, porcelain is quickly expanding in application — available in large slabs and colors that mirror natural stone, wood, metal or any material or pattern you desire.
While natural stone fabrication requires extensive equipment, Moderno is able to expertly fabricate porcelain on-site utilizing proprietary techniques and hand-held saws and drills. Due to Moderno’s extensive training and proprietary tools and process each licensee is able to enter the market steps ahead of their competitors with faster lead times and lower costs.
Porcelain’s strength and ability to resist stains and water damage make it an ideal choice for showerwalls, tubs, countertops, exterior cladding, and other surfacing applications. With its materials being 100% natural, porcelain is also environmentally friendly and easily recyclable. Plus, porcelain’s resistance to UV rays keeps its beauty from fading.
