Product Brochure

■ Cement tiles are completely hand crafted one at a time by skilled artisans. No two tiles
will ever be exactly alike.
■ Cement tiles are not painted...the color layer is poured 3-5mm deep and composed of
ground marble, white Portland cement, white sand, and color pigments. The remainder
of the tile is Portland cement, sand, and aggregate...just like your sidewalk
■ The basic process is unchanged since it was invented in Europe, in the mid-19th Century.
■ Like all natural stone, cement tile will patina gracefully with time.
■ Cement Tile is non-fired; it cures naturally like standard concrete
■ Cement Tile is a “Green” product. All mineral-based, with low energy requirements to
produce.
■ All cement tiles have some variation in color...Remember, they're hand-made. The
variation in color is part of their character and provides “movement” to the floors or walls.
It is part of their charm...not a defect.
■ With proper installation and sealant, cement tile can be used indoors and out, on both
commercial and residential floors and walls, as well as in wet areas and heated floors.
■ Cement Tile is porous, and must be sealed to protect against moisture, stains, and ground
in dirt.
■ All cement tiles MUST be sealed. This is the KEY TO HAPPINESS with your floor.
