Unicom Starker

Unicom Starker Canada delivers an exceptional standard of contemporary Italian tile engineering directly to high-end residential and commercial building projects across the country. Renowned globally for its “ceramics for architecture” philosophy, this premier Italian manufacturer specializes in cutting-edge porcelain tiles that flawlessly replicate the visual depth and tactile complexity of natural materials. From the intricate veins of the Marmorea marble series to the rustic, historic elegance of Châteaux and the authentic, compact texture of their famed Brazilian Slate collections, this brand is the top choice for architects, builders, and interior designers who refuse to compromise on durability or aesthetics.
Every collection produced by this historic Italian studio represents a masterclass in modern manufacturing technology and environmental responsibility. Holding advanced certifications like ISO 14001:2015, the company utilizes advanced pressing and digital printing methods to capture the authentic, organic variations found in natural limestone, timber, and quartzite. This technical precision creates tiles that offer high slip resistance and incredible structural stability while maintaining a refined aesthetic. Whether you are specifying tiles for a high-traffic commercial lobby, a sleek minimalist bathroom feature wall, or a seamless indoor-to-outdoor living room transition, these surfaces deliver uncompromising performance under the harshest structural conditions.
Because these elite porcelain collections are produced on-demand at state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in Fiorano Modenese, Italy, the entire portfolio operates on a bespoke, special-order basis. To keep your construction milestones running seamlessly and on schedule, our design desk recommends coordinating your project specifications early during your initial architectural framing, foundation pouring, or drywall phases. Planning ahead ensures your chosen batch is allocated, securely crated, and imported well in advance of your tiling crew arriving on site.
The entire product lineup is available on a special-order basis with a standard 8–12 week lead time due to traditional manufacturing methods and international freight logistics. Local Tile Co. (127 Main Street, Shelburne, Ontario, L9V 3K3) provides an immersive boutique storefront showroom with ample rear parking, alongside fully insured, heavily crated, and palletized commercial shipping to any destination across all Canadian provinces.
