RAK Ceramics Specifications

Note : Shade variation across the batches is inherent to the manufacturing process and the pre-laying colour comparison is recommended

P O R C E L A I N T I L E S ( B I a - G L ) :Porcelain tiles are manufactured using pure, selectively imported raw materials mixed using the most advanced extraction and sorting techniques; they are obtained with a production process similar to that of single-fired tiles.The resulting product is top-quality porcelain tile, obtained by raw materials wet grinding, followed by partial drying by spraying, silo storage to allow homogenization of properties, and pressing with highly efficient hydraulic presses up to specific pressures more than 500 kg/cm2. The high pressure combined with high firing temperature exceeding 1200 °C results in highly compact & strong ceramic surface with very low water absorption (lower than 0.1% according to UNI EN ISO 10545-3) and extremely high mechanical resistance (average value exceeding 50 N/mm2 according to UNI EN ISO 10545-4).Thanks to their low porosity, these porcelain tiles are frost-proof and rated as belonging to the BIa GL class according to the European Standard UNI EN 14411 which requires water absorption ≤ 0.5%. The MoR (modulus of rupture) in accordance with UNI EN ISO 10545-4 results to 50 N/mm2 while the required value is 35 N/mm2. RAK Ceramics porcelain tiles are available in a wide range of designs, sizes and finishes.

adViCE oN LayiNGAlthough our porcelain tiles can be installed using traditional cement mortars, we advise using modern adhesives. While installing on wall, the two-layer spreading system is recommended to perfectly wet the back of the tile. Quickly dipping each tile in water before installation will remove any dust on the back of the tile for perfect adhesion. Do not wet the tiles if you are using vinyl, acrylic resin adhesives or two-component organic-solvent based adhesive.It is advisable to incorporate suitable shrinkage - flexion joints (movement/ expansion joints) when installing on large floors: the joints should never be spaced more than 4 - 5 linear meters apart indoors and 3 linear meters apart outdoors. Be careful while using strong coloured grouts as they might leave stains on the surface of the tiles that may be difficult to remove later.

RAK Ceramics Specifications

Note : Shade variation across the batches is inherent to the manufacturing process and the pre-laying colour comparison is recommended

F U L L B O D Y P O R C E L A I N T I L E S ( B I A - U G L ) :Full body porcelain tiles are manufactured using pure, selectively imported raw materials mixed using the most advanced extraction and sorting techniques; they are obtained with a production process similar to that of single-fired tiles.The resulting product is top-quality porcelain tile, obtained by raw materials wet grinding, followed by partial drying by spraying, silo storage to allow homogenization of properties, and pressing with highly efficient hydraulic presses up to specific pressures more than 500 kg/cm2. The high pressure combined with high firing temperature exceeding 1200 °C results in highly compact & strong ceramic surface with very low water absorption (lower than 0.1% according to UNI EN ISO 10545-3) and extremely high mechanical resistance (average value exceeding 50 N/mm2 according to UNI EN ISO 10545-4).Full body porcelain are suitable for heavy traffic areas as they are characterized by a deep abrasion resistance (equal to 140 mm3 of removed material, as opposed to the 175 mm3 provided for by the UNI EN ISO 10545-6 standard). Thanks to their low porosity, these tiles are frost-proof and rated as belonging to the BIa UGL class according to the European Standard UNI EN 14411 which requires water absorption ≤ 0.5%. Chemical acid and base resistance (UNI EN ISO 10545-13) makes full body porcelain tiles suitable for environments where aggressive chemicals are used, e.g. food processing factories, hospitals, chemical or pharmaceutical plants. The full bod porcelain tiles are available in a wide range of sizes and surfaces (slip-resistant finish also available).

adViCE oN LayiNGAlthough our full bod porcelain tiles can be installed using traditional cement mortars, we advise using modern adhesives. For large sizes over 40x40cm, outdoor and wall installations, the two-layer spreading system is recommended to perfectly wet the back of the tile. Quickly dipping each tile in water before installation will remove any dust on the back of the tile for perfect adhesion. Do not wet the tiles if you are using vinyl, acrylic resin adhesives or two-component organic-solvent based adhesive.It is advisable to incorporate suitable shrinkage - flexion joints (movement/ expansion joints) when installing on large floors: the joints should never be spaced more than 4 - 5 linear meters apart indoors and 3 linear meters apart outdoors. Be careful while using strong coloured grouts as they might leave stains on the surface of the tiles that may be difficult to remove later.

All RAK Ceramics products are subject to size and shade variations. Please check the size, batch number, caliber, tone, choice, color, quality of the pieces before the installation, as no claims will be accepted once the tiles are installed.

Place some tiles on the floor - 2 or 3 sqm - and check the overall technical and aesthetic characteristics with care and check if there is enough product to finish the work.

Manufacturer’s responsibility is only limited to replacement of defective material if any, prior to fixing of tiles and we will not entertain claim of any nature after the tiles are installed.

Therefore, if any issue is found on the delivered product, the contractor for installation or the client should not install the tiles. The issue should be communicated to RAK Ceramics for investigation and further action for resolution as required.

The substrate must be a compact cement bed. Levelling system ensures flatness between tiles avoiding movements during the mortar setting. This reduces the time for the ceramic laying obtaining a perfect lippage-free finish. Avoid movements between the tiles due to the mortar setting.

The width of grout joints must be established by the installation supervisor, unless grout widths are regulated by national laying standards. The grout colour should be selected according to the colour of the tile. We recommend to select a matching colour. Before using fine-grain coloured grout on lapped, polished or brushed products, always test it. If the pigment is very adhesive, it may be very difficult to remove.

We recommend to lay the tiles by using suitable adhesives for each kind of product and surface. As general rule, tiles must be installed in the same position. The minimum joint is 2 mm for rectified tiles, although we suggest a higher joint for big size products. After grouting, remove any excess product as quickly as possible by repeatedly washing the area with a sponge and water.

Steps to follow 1. First, set the tool to the scale according to the ceramic thickness. 2. Introduce the crossheads and continue laying the adjacent tiles. 3. Put the wedges in the crosshead manually. 4. Tighten the wedges with the pliers to level the pieces. 5. Allow for setting for the time recommended by the manufacturer of the adhesive cement. 6. Remove the crossheads. Hit the crosshead with a rubber mallet or with your foot in the direction of the joint. Do not hit the wedges. The company will not accept any claim if this is due to the problems caused by not following these suggestions and instructions.

Maintenance of ceramic and porcelain tiles on dry surfaces is relatively easy. RAK Ceramics tiles are highly scratch and stain resistant. • By regularly sweeping the floor, you can help avoid scratches that small pebbles or sand can create.• Make it a habit to always wipe the soles of your shoes on a mat before entering the house. Thoroughly wipe up any spills using plain warm water. • While they are not likely to stain your ceramic tiles, spills may stain the grout between the tiles and if they are left to sit for too long, may also stain the actual

tiles. • Plain water is the ideal cleaner because it leaves no residue if you dry the surface of the tiles thoroughly after cleaning. • If tiles are left wet after cleaning, there may be some unsightly mineral residue after the water dries, but this can easily be removed by spot cleaning. • If stains resist cleaning with water alone, you can use a mild acidic solution, such as white vinegar. Use it highly diluted and rinse with plain water then dry. • As food stains are acidic in nature, try using a mild alkaline solution. • Use common detergents sparingly, rinse with plain water and dry thoroughly.

We have collaborated with Fila, a leading company in cleaning, protection and maintenance of ceramic surfaces to offer an exclusive cleaning service to address our customers post installation concerns.Cleaning after laying is of vital importance as a lot of unseen debris and reactive chemicals can affect the visual appearance of the ceramic material. With this new service, our customers can take advantage of Fila’s professional on-site consultation. For more info please visit www.rakceramics.com
