Porcelain stoneware tiles
Porcelain tiles are obtained from raw materials such as kaolin, feldspars or different granulometry quartz sands, mixed with coloured oxides.
This mixture is then dry-pressed or fired at temperatures of up to 1250°C to obtain very compact and high quality tiles. Porcelain tiles can be full-body or glazed.
Pressing
It is the method by which tiles are shaped.
Tiles are shaped by forcing the raw material through special moulds to obtain the intended size.
