| Duracrete Floor Tiles |
| |
| Duracrete Floor Tiles are pigmented white cement face mix outdoor tiles which come in several captivating shapes, and in a wide range of colours. These tiles are generally used in hardcore exterior applications like driveways, promenades, walkways, parking lots, city beautification projects, etc and in semi-internal places like verandahs, balconies, atriums, courtyards |
| |
| Outdoor tiles are rated on two vital parameters: |
| |
• Strength
• Aesthetics |
| |
| Strength |
| |
| Duracrete tiles are manufactured by a state-of-the-art high speed dynamically vibratory production process which ensures complete elimination of air holes in the body of the tile. The strength of concrete is directly proportional to its density and the vibratory process produce the densest possible concrete. Yet another contributor to the strength of concrete is its cement to aggregate ratio which, in the case of Duracrete tiles, is an extremely rich 1:2.1. |
| |
| Lastly, Duracrete tiles have a secondary reinforcement of imported German Polypropylene fibres. |
| |
| Aesthetics |
|
| Several facets of Duracrete tiles contribute to enhance the aesthetics factor. Firstly, Duracrete floor tiles come in various sizes and alluring designs. The surface finishes, too, are varied like geometric, floral and stone like. |
|
| The use of white cement and UV stabilized imported Bayferrox pigments enhance the vibrancy of the colours while ensuring that the colours do not fade on exposure to the vagaries of nature. |
|
| Duracrete Wall Tiles |
|
| Duracrete wall tiles are a permanent, zero maintenance cladding option to paints and natural stones. It comes in a breathtaking range of designs including rustic finishes. Use of Duracrete wall tiles radically transforms bland facades into vibrant style statements. |
|
| The colours do not fade over the lifetime since the pigments used are UV stabilized and the surface treatment ensures that moss, fungus, algae etc. simply cannot form on the tiles. Further, there is no chance of blackening or colour bleeding which are common place among natural stones. |
|
| All in all, Duracrete wall tiles are a lifelong, problem free, zero maintenance, vibrantly coloured cladding option available in exquisite designs. |
|
| Duracrete Polished Pavers |
|
| Duracrete Polished pavers are a major improvement over conventional hydraulically pressed pavers at a nominally higher cost. Duracrete Polished Pavers have very high compressive strength due to the high speed dynamically vibratory production process. Further, the use of vibrant pigments and the glossy surface finish makes Duracrete Polished Pavers an aesthetic delight. |
|
| Duracrete Polished pavers are available in select designs and colours. 45mm thick Duracrete Polished pavers are ideal for pedestrian and light vehicular traffic while 60mm thick pavers can easily take on heavy vehicular traffic. |
|
| Speciality Tiles |
|
| Duracrete step tiles come under this category. Duracrete step tiles come in a set of tread and riser tiles – Summit (tread) tiles are a 1’ x 1’ tile with a bullnosed edge which has a subtle geometric design for aesthetics as well as to provide an arresting grip to the feet thus preventing accidental falls. Risers (6” x 12”) tiles are available with an identical design as etched on the bullnosing for symmetry or as plain 6”x12” tiles. |
|
| Duracrete step tiles are ready-to-fix tiles which do away with time consuming, messy in-situ civil work normally associated with constructing staircases. It needs no aligning, chipping, scraping or polishing since it comes with a bullnose and is prepolished. Even, the setting and curing time is drastically reduced. |
