Description
The Glace Porcelain collection inspired by extruded bricks . The collection consists of five neutral shades and one accent colour (Turchese) in plain and 3D effect. The product is coloured in clay tones to simulate the absence of glaze, along the edges and in very small areas you find undulations and irregular movements within the pieces , as in the inspiration products.
These tiles are non rectified, pressed with extremely straight edges together with handcrafted appearance, slight movements have been inserted along the side of the tiles to break up the rigidity of the perfectly rectangular shape. Tho emphasise the irregularities of the surface, Subline sync technology has been used , to create some small cut , chips on the surface that are enriched with a graphic mark to emphasises their three dimensionality.
The plain tile is made up of 30 different graphics across 11 different structures.
Available in the following size:
75mm x 200mm x 10mm
The 3D structure , has more or less wide and deep grooves for a barcode effect. The surface is glossy on the ridges and matt on the depressions , the difference in glazes highlights the dual nature of the substrate, smooth and soft at the ridges, rough and sandblasted in the depressions.
All Glace porcelain tiles are suitable for walls in all residential rooms and floors in residential bathrooms.

What Does Glazed Porcelain Tiles Mean?
Glazed porcelain tiles have had a layer of silica (glass) applied to the surface during the manufacturing process. This is then fired at the same time as the tile body, creating a glazed glossy surface over the tile face.
Are Polished Porcelain Tiles Slippery?
You will find that all polished tiles are more slippery by their very nature than other finishes such natural matt or honed tiles, but if you take care walking on them in wet conditions, they are still suitable for most areas of the home. All major tile manufacturers will have technical data sheets, that state the slip rating of their tiles, you need a COF (Coefficient of Friction) of 6 or better to be slip resistant enough for a floor.
What Are Polished Porcelain Tiles?
The polished surface on Porcelain tiles is made by grinding the surface of the tile with a diamond disk with a grit of 800 and over. This is undertaken at the end of the production line after the tiles have been fired and rectified and just before packaging.
Which Is Better Glazed Or Unglazed Porcelain Tile To Clean?
Glazed porcelain tiles are extremely easy to keep clean, due to their non-porous nature and shiny surface, but with proper care, unglazed and textured porcelain tiles can be maintained without anything more than regular maintenance.
What Is The Difference Between Porcelain And Glazed Porcelain?
Porcelain will normally have a matt or polished surface that is mechanically applied after printing and firing. Glazed porcelain tiles have a layer of silica applied to their surface and are fired for a second time to achieve a glossy surface finish.
