According to the function, tiles have two main factors: hardness and surface. Floor tiles designed with durability can withstand the pressures of people walking, the weight of furniture as well as other heavy objects. The tiles used for floor lining have greater stiffness, better bearing capacity, often with a high specific gravity (tight material compression). The surface will often be resistant to slip and scratch, high abrasion resistance. The types of tiles used for walling do not require high strength, so usually have a light weight, porous (partly to reduce production costs, easily mounted to the wall). The surface that does not require anti-slippery, anti-scratch but inclined to show aesthetics, may have sink edges, floats or coatings, emulsions to increase the beauty. In construction, floor tiles can be used as wall tiles, however, not all types of wall tiles can be used for floor surfaces. These two tiling surfaces are different because of the durability designed for each surface. Floor tiles can be used as wall tiles, however, you should note that the weight of floor tiles is not too heavy when used as wall tiles.
Tile Construction requires technical expertise and sophistication but you can do it yourself. To make construction work easy, you can refer to tiling processes and instructions on the company's website.
Index R is an international index of slip resistance of tiles, calculated from R9 - R13. The higher the index, the greater the anti-slip level, which is calculated by measuring the slope of the tile surface that humans can move normally (non-slip) on that tile surface. Ceramic and porcelain tiles are designed with different durability and anti-slip properties. Anti-slip index R is calculated from R9 to R13. R9 or larger anti-slip floor tiles are suitable for wet areas or mobility areas. Please note that although surfaces are used for tiles with high anti-slip properties, we must be careful when applying in these areas.
Normally, customers should set a range between 10% and 15% of the total amount calculated. This is necessary because the construction process includes the task of cutting or drilling, as well as a minimum amount of reserve for future replacement.
We always has a technical team to guide construction for customers. Please contact the Agent or company staff for assistance.
Depending on the project progress, the scale or the tiles that need to be used, you should have a plan for selecting and closing tile products. status until use, the product is sold out and must wait for import.
Tile manufacturers (both domestic and foreign) recommend limiting at least 3 mm grout when tiling and the grout is also a decorative part of the space. It is recommended that you leave from 3 ~ 5mm to make it easier to apply the grout to prevent water penetration, avoid the phenomenon of thermal expansion causing later and limit warping due to the error of tile tolerance.
The way you choose the color of grout is a personal choice as well as when you choose tiles. Agents can provide advice based on popular grout products, but we recommend that you choose colors that match your design style.
