Fugabella Color Tile Grout in UAE
Decorative resin-cement
Available in 50 colours
In the UAE construction and interior design market, searches for tile grout and adhesive often go hand in hand. While adhesives secure the tile to the substrate, it is the grout that defines durability, hygiene, and the final visual impact of the surface. Fugabella Color by Kerakoll has been developed precisely for this purpose, offering a new-generation solution that goes far beyond traditional cement grout.
Available in Dubai through Flameco Group, Fugabella Color is a decorative Resina-cemento® hybrid tile grout engineered for projects where aesthetics, performance, and sustainability must coexist. It represents a clear evolution from conventional grouting systems commonly used across residential, hospitality, and commercial developments in the UAE.
Why Hybrid Grout Is Replacing Traditional Tile Grout in the UAE
Standard cement grouts have long been used in the region, yet they frequently suffer from inconsistent color, water absorption, surface porosity, and premature aging, especially under the UAE’s demanding climatic conditions. Epoxy grouts solve some of these issues but introduce others, including difficult application, limited breathability, and higher installation complexity.
Fugabella Color bridges this gap through its Resina-cemento® hybrid technology, combining the ease of application associated with cement-based grouts with the durability and resistance normally expected from resin systems. The result is a grout that performs reliably in high-traffic, wet, and thermally stressed environments, while remaining practical for professional installers.

Tile Grout Engineered for UAE Climate and Applications
Fugabella Color has been tested and certified for environments that reflect real UAE site conditions. It’s thermal resistant and performs reliably in outdoor patios, terraces, and façade-adjacent flooring exposed to intense heat and cooling cycles. The grout is also suitable for swimming pools, fountains, and permanently wet areas, where water-repellence and low absorption are critical.
Internally, it supports high-end residential and hospitality interiors using porcelain tiles, natural stone, glass mosaics, and low-thickness slabs. Joint widths from 0 to 20 mm provide flexibility across both minimalist and expressive design concepts.
50-Color Design Collection by Piero Lissoni
In modern architecture, grout is no longer a background material, it is part of the design language. Fugabella Color features a 50-color collection curated by Piero Lissoni, allowing designers to achieve harmony, contrast, or continuity across tiled surfaces.
The grout’s fine-grain structure and controlled drying process deliver exceptional chromatic uniformity, reducing the risk of shading or patchiness often seen with conventional products. This makes it particularly suited to large-format porcelain slabs, marble surfaces, and high-visibility interior finishes common in luxury UAE developments.
A Green Tile Grout for Sustainable Construction
Sustainability is no longer optional in UAE construction specifications. Fugabella Color is classified as a green product for bio-building, developed with a high mineral content and approximately 30% recycled minerals. Its very low VOC emissions contribute to healthy indoor air quality, making it suitable for enclosed residential and commercial environments.
At the end of its lifecycle, the material can be recycled as mineral inert waste, supporting responsible construction practices and reducing environmental impact.
