For more than 30 years, tile installers, stone fabricators, and construction professionals across Europe have relied on DiStar tools for precision cutting, long service life, and consistent results on porcelain, ceramic, stone, and high-density materials. What many American installers do not realize is that DiStar has quietly been the manufacturer behind several well-known private label blades sold under other brand names. Now, for the first time, the brand is entering the U.S. market under its own name, giving installers direct access to a higher level of cutting performance.

Tile ProSource is proud to be one of the first U.S. suppliers to offer official DiStar products. As demand grows for better cutting technology, this launch represents a major shift in what American tile professionals can expect from a premium diamond blade.

What Makes DiStar Different From Typical Diamond Tool Brands

Most installers have used imported blades that look good in the packaging but break down quickly, chip porcelain edges, or lose cutting speed after a few passes. DiStar was built to solve these issues through advanced European engineering, strict quality control, and a commitment to durability.

1. Engineering Focused on Clean Cutting and Edge Precision

DiStar blades use refined diamond matrices and high-tolerance steel cores designed to reduce vibration, heat, and cutting deviation. The result is smoother, straighter cuts that require little to no post-cut dressing. This is especially valuable when working with premium porcelain, thin-panel materials, and sintered surfaces where microchipping becomes obvious.

2. Longer Blade Life for Professional Workloads

Instead of relying on flashy paint or marketing claims, DiStar invests in segment structure, weld quality, cooling geometry, and matrix composition. Professionals who switch notice that DiStar blades last significantly longer than common imports, even under heavy daily use.

3. Category-Leading Innovation for Micro-Cutting Tools

One of DiStar’s fastest-growing strengths is its lineup of micro blades designed for rotary tools and precision grinders. Models like the Butterfly Blade give installers the ability to perform extremely detailed cuts such as outlet openings, trim adjustments, and decorative shaping without chipping fragile edges. These blades pair exceptionally well with Proxxon and similar micro-grinder systems.

A Global Manufacturer Now Available in the American Market

DiStar has grown into one of the largest diamond blade producers in the world. Many contractors have unknowingly used DiStar-made blades for years, packaged and sold by other brands. With the brand now launching in the United States, American installers can finally access the technology directly and at competitive prices.

Tile ProSource is among the first distributors to carry DiStar with full transparency. Professionals no longer need to buy private-label versions from companies marking up the same technology. Instead, the authentic, original DiStar tools are now available at a better value.

Why Tile Pros Trust DiStar for Porcelain, Ceramic, and Stone

DiStar is not just another diamond blade brand. It is a precision cutting system engineered for today’s materials and installation demands.

Clean Edges on Hard Porcelain

Modern porcelain tiles are harder than ever before. Many blades overheat quickly or chip edges when pushed aggressively. DiStar’s hybrid-bond and continuous edge systems allow installers to cut dense porcelain while keeping edges smooth and bright.

Improved Stability and Control

A reinforced steel core and balanced design keep the blade running true even at high RPM. This matters when working with premium materials or making visible cuts in a finished installation.

A Complete Line for Every Task

DiStar offers:

• High performance blades for porcelain and ceramic

• Continuous rim blades for finish cuts

• Micro blades for detail work

• Cup wheels for grinding and shaping

• Core bits and drilling solutions

• Dust-friendly cutting accessories

Tile installers, fabricators, and remodelers will find solutions for nearly every step of the job.

The Growing Trend: Proxxon Tools Paired With DiStar Precision Blades

One of the most exciting developments in the industry is the pairing of Proxxon precision grinders with DiStar micro blades. Installers are discovering that this combination makes previously difficult cuts far more accurate and controlled.

• DiStar micro blades provide ultra thin, chip-free performance

• Proxxon grinders deliver low vibration and stable handling

• Together, they create a new standard for surgical detail work

Tile ProSource is helping lead this trend forward, stocking both the blades and the tools that make this system work.

What American Installers Are Saying After Switching to DiStar

Contractors who have tested DiStar often report:

• Cleaner edges on porcelain

• Less need for dressing or polishing cuts

• Faster cutting speed with lower friction

• Better control on detailed or delicate materials

• Longer blade life compared to common imports

• Reduced chipping on miters and exposed edges

Many describe it as using a blade that finally matches the quality of the tile they are installing.
