Details
The technique of creating mission cement tiles came to Mexico through Spanish artisans. Handmade mission cement tiles take a special mold for each design. The process involves blending high quality white Portland cement, marble powder, fine sand, and natural mineral color pigments. Unlike other varieties, cement tiles do not use glazes or a kiln. Rather, they undergo hydrolysis and they harden through their soak in vats of water. Solidifying the material with a hydraulic press gives these tiles exceptional resistance and superior strength.
-Excellent for high traffic places, these tiles have a concrete base and a thick Soapstone pigmentation, that will last throughout generations
-This cement floor tiles are manufactured using 100% natural and recycle materials. They are also non pollutant and non inflammable.
-Anti-slippery coat
-Dimensions: 8" x 8", 5/8" thick
-We are able to customize most designs and/or colors
