The Kaleido series tiles belong to the stone effect porcelain stoneware. The black tone of this tile is not heavy, as it is lightened by the presence of veining. A floor with this pattern becomes an important and above all classy surface.
Destinations of use
This tile is perfect for an open-plan living area, a study or a bathroom. You can use it either as a floor or wall tile. As it is a dark colour, I recommend that you always use it in rooms that are large enough so that you do not have the effect of a small room.
It is very easy to clean: for the lapped surface, I recommend using a neutral detergent, not too aggressive to avoid ruining the lapping.
Laying advice
You can lay this tile with a minimum joint of 2 mm as it is rectified.
For a modern, non-static effect, we recommend laying staggered at 1/4.
If you want to have a "tidy" floor, I recommend having the tiles laid giving the same direction to their veins. If the tiles are laid without studying the direction of the veins, the result will be an untidy floor.
Thickness
The 59.5x59.5 and 22.5x90 formats are 10 mm thick, while the 45.5x45.5 format is 9 mm thick.
Lapped porcelain stoneware: what does it mean?
The lapped surface of a tile is different from the natural surface. You notice this immediately with the naked eye because the lapped surface is shinier than the natural surface, which is more opaque. If you touch a lapped surface you will also feel that it is smoother than the natural one.
So how do you get a lapped surface? Once the tile is manufactured, it undergoes polishing to make the surface smoother and softer. Be careful, however, not to confuse a lapped surface with a polished surface: lapping does not make the tile perfectly shiny with a mirror effect, it only makes it smoother.
