Product Features
Full body vitrified tiles have pigment in the entire body (thickness) of the tile. This makes chips and scratches less noticeable and makes this an ideal choice for high traffic zones. but the process significantly increases the cost. Full body vitrified tiles have a uniform colour running throughout their thickness. Hence, the tile never fades in its lifetime. This characteristic makes full body vitrified tiles the most suitable for high traffic areas because the scratches are hardly visible. It also makes them the most expensive. During the process of manufacturing, the pigment mixture is added right in the initial stages, so as to create a homogeneous color that is consistent throughout the tile. In this type of tiles scratches are less noticeable. Full body vitrified tiles are formed with the paint mixture pre added while making the body.

Technical Information
INSTALLATION METHOD:
- The ground should be compacted properly by ramming and applying
- Water on it as per the standard practice to create a firm base. Ensure that there is no settlement of base. Also ensure the natural slope for drainage.
- Please lay the tiles on the substrate to match the colour properly before actual fixing.
- For low pedestrian traffic, on this base apply 4” to 6” thick BBC (Brick Bats Cement Concrete).
- For medium traffic floors, on the BBCC base, make 3” thick PCC (Plain Cement Concrete) in 1:3:6.
- For heavy duty traffic, make 4” thick RCC (Reinforced Cement Concrete) in 1:2:4. The RCC should be laid such that the proper line and level is attained.
- Prepare base mortar by mixing sand and cement in 1:4 proportions.
- Lay the mortar on the substrate prepared as mentioned above in required line and level. It should be noted that in any case the bed mortar thickness should be more than 1” thickness.
- Mark the centerline and fix the tiles on all the corners and center in the required level. Preferably, start fixing tiles parallel to longer span.
- Prepare thick cement paste by mixing water & cement. Apply this paste on the backside of the tile to fix it.
- Fixing of tile has to be done with a minimum gap of 8mm. We do not recommend tiles to be laid without a gap (to provide for expansion due to sunlight/heat).
- Lay the tiles on this firm base and ram lightly with the help of a rubber hammer or trowel from top. See that the tile top surface is laid in the required line and level with proper joint gap.
- Utmost care should be taken while fixing other tiles in terms of matching lines and keeping exact joint width between tiles. (For maintaining joint width spacers are recommended of required joint thickness).
