2CM Porcelain Pavers

Traditional porcelain floor tiles range from 7-12mm in thickness and much of their breaking strength is derived from being adhered to a robust surface such as a screed. The advent of a 20mm thickness allows these tiles to be dry laid onto grass, gravel or sand, like traditional concrete and stone landscape pavers. They can also be installed with adhesives and onto elevated deck jacks; which is ideal where access to waterproofing membranes and conduits needs to be maintained. Such versatility ensures that whatever the surface to be laid on, there is a laying system to suit.

Incredibly hard wearing and with an anti-slip finish they can be used on a project of any scale, from residential to commercial and public spaces. They are suitable for any residential exterior area including balconies, terraces, garden walkways, pool surrounds, driveways and carports. Commercial and public spaces can include alfresco restaurant areas, shopping malls, pavements and walkways, urban open spaces and squares. Their superior high tensile strength also makes them suitable for vehicle access ways and ramps, however they must be adhered onto a screed in these areas.

Unlike traditional concrete and stone pavers, 20mm porcelain will never need sealing. It is also stain, chemical and thermal resistant and can be manufactured in a diverse range of designs, colours, sizes and shapes. It will never fade, is resistant to breakage and is easy to clean. It won’t show signs of wear. Water blasters can’t damage these!

If dry laid they can be relocated and rearranged and can even be used on a temporary basis for special events. When installed on deck jacks they are easily uplifted and replaced to enable inspection and repairs to waterproof membranes and conduits laid beneath.

Some 20mm thick porcelain products are also manufactured with a matching interior porcelain tile for those who desire a seamless flow from interior to exterior areas. For those pavers that don’t have a matching interior tile, the wide range of designs and colours available still facilitate a stylistic continuity between indoor and outdoor spaces.
