PORCELAIN STONEWARE PAVING

Porcelain stoneware offers a highly versatile, high performance paving solution enabling you to create safe and practical flooring designs. Fusing a combination of raw materials (sand, quartz, fledspars, kaolin, clay and natural colourants) into a single material and firing it at temperatures above 1230 degrees celcius, produces a paver with exceptional hardness, practically no absorption capabilities, and unmatched mechanical characteristics.

 

Available in a range of colours, sizes, thicknesses and finishes, our porcelain paving can be used as an indoor our outdoor flooring solution. 

 

Why choose porcelain stoneware?

Porcelain stoneware delivers unrivalled technical performance with pure style. Plus porcelain paving is resistant to:

​

  • Chemicals - porcelain stoneware is resistant to acids, chemical agents, salt and verdigris

  • Stains - irritants like mould, oil, moss and dark smudges can't saturate the porcelain so it retains its aesthetic appeal

  • Loads - it's so strong that every slab can withstand loads of over 1000kg

  • Thermal Shock - it's frost free and fire resistant, as its properties remain unaltered between -50 degrees and 60 degrees celcius.

  • Slip - its structured surface means it's slip resistant so safe and can be used for wet and dry areas.

​

What's more, porcelain paving is easy to:

  • Clean - it needs no special or seasonal treatment to protect it from staining, and is simply cleaned with a pressure washer

  • Remove - it's completely removable, serviceable and reusable (unless applied with adhesives), as the outdoor solutions slabs weigh 17kg each.
