Porcelain is produced using a selection of raw materials like white clay, quartz, etc., pressing to 4600 tons (400kg/cm2), firing at 1200-1250 degrees for 90 minutes and rectifying. This gives it the breaking strength of over 9500N making them suitable for outdoors, even in areas with high foot traffic.
The market standard is less than 0.50%. All our outdoor porcelain tiles meet that standard with majority of them comes with a water absorption rate of below 0.2% and that’s what makes us one of the most prominent supplier of outdoor porcelain paving slabs in the UK.
The low water absorption rate makes it hard for the stains and marks to penetrate the surface, which means easier maintenance.
Since we live is a country where it rains a lot, it's vital that the product used outdoors have a good anti-slip rating.
