Grasaro porcelain tiles: design features

Among the manufacturers of porcelain stoneware tiles, the Grasaro company occupies one of the leading places. Despite the “youth” of the Samara company (it has been operating since 2002), this brand's porcelain stoneware has already gained wide popularity and managed to find many of its fans.

A significant role in the "popular recognition" of porcelain stoneware from Samara was played by its high strength. For a matte product, this indicator on the Mohs scale is 7 units (for comparison, the strength of a natural stone is about 6 units). The durability of the polished material is slightly lower - 5-6 units.

This strength is achieved thanks to the use of a unique technologydeveloped by the company's specialists in cooperation with Italian colleagues.

Of great importance in achieving high quality finishing materials are:

• The recipe for the composition used to create porcelain stoneware. Careful selection of ingredients and their combination allows you to achieve maximum brightness and color saturation.
• Raw materials. In production, raw materials from various countries are used, but exclusively natural, which makes it possible to manufacture products that are completely safe for humans and the environment.
• Quality control carried out at all production stages. The finished tile undergoes a series of tests, as a result of which the corresponding certificates are issued for the products.
• The use of Italian equipment, which is constantly updated and modernized. Thanks to this, it is possible to achieve a perfectly smooth surface of the tiles and a clear geometry of all elements.
• Firing carried out at a temperature of 1200 ° C.

In addition, the designers of the company and its engineering staff constantly monitor the modern market and new technologies in the production of porcelain stoneware, select the best and introduce them into production.
