Linea Costa
A 12 mm rib that reads from across the room and cleans with a cloth.
What this finish is for
L05 is a pale grey-beige with an evenly spaced 12 mm vertical rib. It is the finish used on reception fronts, bar fronts and lift lobby walls — anywhere a flat surface would be dull at ten metres and busy at one.
The rib pitch is regular across the full 2800 mm, so slabs butt together without interrupting the rhythm as long as the setting-out starts from a fixed edge rather than from the middle. The installation notes cover this; it is the single most common thing that goes wrong.
Unlike a timber or MDF rib, this one is a hard, non-porous surface, which is why it survives in a bar where a fluted timber front would be replaced in three years.
Technical data
Typical values for the body. The two marked as sample references are supplied with this template and must be confirmed against your own project requirement before you rely on them.
A 3200 × 1600 slab is not a big tile
Two people and a frame move it; a suction rail does the rest. The reason the format matters is not the size of the slab, it is the number of joints that disappear from the drawing.
A three-metre island in 3200 comes out of one slab, with the waterfall ends book-matched from the same piece. In 1200 × 600 it is nine pieces and eight joints, and every one of those joints is a decision somebody has to make on site, at seven in the morning, with the client arriving at nine.

Same body, same formats, same technical file structure — the difference is what the surface does in the room.
The technical file
Datasheet, CAD slab outlines and the care guide. No form, no email address required — the same files your fabricator will ask you for.
