The floors of a house are very important. When the word flooring is mentioned, everyone thinks of some room in their home. However there is a second category which often takes a back seat, but which is of equal importance. We are obviously talking about outdoor floors.
While indoor floors are, for obvious reasons, the primary concern of anyone building or renovating a home, outdoor floors can have a big impact on the final look.
In fact, outdoor floors have an important task, as well as obviously functional, also aesthetic. The external floor can be the business card of a house, the first thing that anyone who enters will see. For this reason his choice can never be underestimated.
Outdoor floors: characteristics
Above all, outdoor floors are characterized by specific characteristics. Technical peculiarities that make it suitable for the delicate and onerous task they have to perform, namely being outside.
Placing a porcelain stoneware tile outdoors brings with it numerous problems that are not foreseen indoors, such as: rain, frost, humidity, wind and sun.
To resist all these typical adversities for an outdoor floor, the tiles must be designed and manufactured with the most modern technologies.
For this reason, all the outdoor tiles featured on our site are endowed with various “superpowers.”
Non-slip. The surface of porcelain stoneware is made with a high friction value. In this way, even if wet, damp or icy, you will not risk slipping.
Frost resistance. In addition to making surfaces slippery and therefore potentially very dangerous for our safety, tiles are not afraid of frost. A low-quality product, if exposed to low temperatures, may risk breaking or injury. This does not happen with our products.
UV resistance. As many know, any object, if exposed to the sun for a long time, will tend to turn yellow and fade due to the action of the sun’s rays. Our outdoor floors resist while maintaining their color unaltered.
