AExtra20:

Porcelain tiles in 20mm thickness for outdoor floors

Aextra20 by Naturalis consists of single-piece porcelain stoneware slabs, perfectly squared and rectified with 20mm thickness and in various sizes, with anti-slip surface finish. Thanks to the tremendous resistance of Naturalis porcelain stoneware and the opportunity to choose from among four different installation systems, Aextra20 is the perfect solution for any outdoor flooring. The broad colour range and the complete set of trims allow to meet any planning need.

Recommendations for the installation, cleaning and maintenance

Naturalis recommends carrying out the procedures for the ordinary cleaning of Aextra20 floor surfaces using water and commercially available neutral detergents: the inclination of the surface and the space between adjacent slabs for dry-system installation favour the natural flow of water.

However, it is important to take into consideration that any type of floor surface is subject to the surface tension effect of liquids: it is the same property of water that gives the tendency to transform into spherical droplets and which cause the curved top surface of a glass full of water.

The surface tension can obstacle the complete drainage of water and cause a temporary stagnation of liquid on the slab edges. In order to avoid this problem, Naturalis recommends ensuring adequate inclination of the surface during installation so as to encourage the flow of water between adjacent slabs. Should liquid deposit on the surface, it is recommended to push it towards grout lines using a brush or remove it with a wet and dry vacuum cleaner.
