Outdoor porcelain has already been tested in Europe!
Porcea’s full range of landscaping porcelain has already been time & weather-tested throughout Europe, including countries such as Italy, Spain, France, UK, Germany, Russia, and most Nordic countries (Denmark, Sweden, & others). Beyond Europe, outdoor porcelain stone has also recently gained traction in Australia and the United States.
There’s no question about it. Outdoor porcelain for landscaping use might be a new concept for Canada, but it has technical specifications that are superior to concrete and natural stone.
Resistant to freeze-thaw cycles, tested in Scandinavian countries with temperatures ranging from -50°C to +60°C
Highly resilient material that is resistant to stains from acids, salts, moss, mildew, etc.
Less than 0.1% absorption of water allows high structural strength and suitability for all climates
Unlike natural stone and concrete, porcelain does not easily fade with sunlight or from exposure to UV radiation
Great traction with a high dynamic coefficient of skid resistance (DCOF) and slip ratings exceeding R10 and R11.
Durable material that can resist impact/force, and a MOHS hardness rating of 6-8 makes Porcea Stone as durable as granite
Unlike some limitations that exist with concrete or stone pavers, outdoor porcelain stone is highly flexible when it comes to installation
The four most common ways to install outdoor porcelain are:
For vehicular traffic, 3 cm porcelain can be dry-laid on sand or gravel; while for pedestrian traffic, 2 cm porcelain is suitable on sand or gravel.
Designed for higher density pedestrian or vehicular traffic, this application is the most strong and long-lasting installation of outdoor porcelain.
Floating paving primarily used for terraces eliminates humidity problems, allows for passage of electrical cables and pipes, and efficient drainage of rainwater.
Dry laying porcelain on grass is the easiest and most simple installation method. Pavers can be installed with minimal joins or as stepping stones for a walkway or patio.
