The second phase of the 140th China Import and Export Fair (Canton Fair) took place in Guangzhou from October 23 to 27, 2026. With the theme “Quality Home,” this edition brought together more than 11,000 exhibitors, providing a global platform for showcasing new products, sharing innovations and exploring business opportunities.
As a premium ceramic tile brand known for its distinctive textures and designs, KITO Ceramics presented a range of new collections and innovative surface technologies. The KITO booth attracted strong interest from international buyers on the opening day, with its latest products offering fresh ideas for quality living and architectural design.
01. INSPIRED BY NATURE, DEFINED BY TEXTURE
Drawing inspiration from the natural world, KITO brings the beauty of natural materials into ceramic design. At this year's Canton Fair, the brand showcased its new Limenza and Pore-Textured Stone collections, offering more design possibilities for both interior and exterior applications through natural-looking textures, layers and finishes.
TRAVERKIN COLLECTION
Beyond Nature. Beauty in Every Detail.
On October 23, the opening day of the fair, KITO was invited to participate in the official New Product Launch event, where it presented the TraverKIN collection.
Inspired by the distinctive pores and surface details of natural travertine, the collection features KITO's proprietary Precision Pore-Forming Technology. During the low-temperature drying stage, the technology precisely controls the shape, size and distribution of the pores, recreating the natural appearance of travertine with remarkable detail.
The collection immediately caught the attention of international buyers at the launch event. After the presentation, interested visitors followed KITO's staff to the booth to learn more about the products, explore their details and discuss potential applications. The booth remained busy with enquiries and conversations throughout the day.
With its distinctive look and carefully developed surface details, the TraverKIN collection highlights KITO's continued commitment to ceramic design and product innovation.
LIMENZA COLLECTION
Inspired by limestone. Made for every space.
Formed over millions of years from marine fossils deposited on ancient seabeds, natural limestone is known for its subtle variations and timeless character.
Drawing on the beauty of natural limestone, KITO uses its own production techniques to recreate its weathered surface and distinctive texture. Subtle tonal variations and fine granular details give the collection an authentic, naturally aged appearance, capturing the character of stone shaped by time.
The KITO Limenza collection is available in both 10 mm and 20 mm thicknesses, with sizes ranging from 1200 × 600 mm to 2700 × 1200 mm. Designed to meet different application needs, it brings the natural appeal of limestone to a wider range of architectural and interior settings.
MICRO-CID GLAZE COLLECTION
The Touch of Natural Stone. The Sparkle of Light.
The appeal of a material goes beyond its appearance. Its texture, tactile feel and interaction with light are equally important.
KITO's next-generation MICRO-CID Glaze collection brings a distinctive new expression to textured ceramic tiles. Combining an authentic natural-stone feel with dynamic crystalline sparkle, the collection offers a refined surface with both tactile depth and visual interest.
Its finely grained finish recreates the delicate, compact sandy feel of natural rock. As light moves across the surface, subtle crystal effects create changing reflections and added depth. The result is a sophisticated finish that brings together the tactile character of natural stone and the beauty of light.
02. GREEN INNOVATION, EXPANDING MATERIAL POSSIBILITIES
Alongside its focus on design and product performance, KITO is also looking towards a more sustainable future.
The Foamed Ceramics showcased at the fair represent the company's ongoing exploration of green and low-carbon building materials. The product has received the Gold Award and Sustainability Award at the Canton Fair Design Innovation Awards (CF Award), recognizing its achievements in material innovation and sustainable development.
From the design possibilities of ceramic tiles and porcelain slabs to the material innovation of Foamed Ceramics, KITO continues to explore new applications and expand the value of building materials.
As an important platform connecting businesses and buyers around the world, the Canton Fair offers valuable opportunities for brands to showcase their latest developments and build international partnerships.
Today, KITO products are exported to more than 100 countries and regions. Moving forward, KITO will continue to invest in design innovation, surface technology and the development of green materials, working with partners worldwide to explore new opportunities and grow in global markets.
