Terracotta Tiles Ceramic floor handmade exterior outdoor

Light pink extruded tile, pink-veined surface obtained by pressing two rollers on the crude clay. Ideal for refined classical environments, suitable for indoor and outdoor installation. Setting with adhesive is suggested, joints of 3 to 5mm. Recommended in Kwikdry type, pretreated with water-repellent solution.

Cotto Kwikdry is the biodegradable water repellent treatment obtained with innovative techniques and machinery, through a working cycle by immersion.

This treatment, created by Cotto Fornire to satisfy its customers while respecting the environment, is invisible and does not alter in any way the natural chromatic nuances and the breathability of terracotta.

The product is odorless, colorless, completely non-toxic because it is a water-based and solvent-free.

The specific fundamental advantage of the treatment of Cotto Kwikdry consists in a deep and permanent protection against efflorescence. The treatment reduces the absorption of surfaces by counteracting any rising damp and protects the tiles during the laying and grouting phase, preventing them from getting dirty.

Processing:

 Earth and fire of the Etna volcano are two constant elements in the background of Cotto Furnò’s roots.

The particular characteristics and features of Cotto Furnò come from a unique natural blend of clay and volcanic lava sand (basalt). This mixture fired at very high temperature gives the product its characteristic colouring and ensures its high resistance to wear, to changes of temperature and a considerable thermal comfort.

The colour variation adds to the simplicity of the terracotta and makes each piece unique. The wide range of products, both machine made and hand made, proposed by the Company, renders the product particularly suitable for furnishing both public and private areas,

for both indoor and outdoor installations:

• floor tiles of various shapes and dimensions; • wall claddings; • wall caps of various sizes; • steps and corners; • swimmingpool border; • other special pieces.

Wide range, quality and experience are the unique selling points of Cotto Furnò. All products are proposed in two versions: the natural untreated version and the Kwikdry version, pre-treated with water-repellent solution by means of impregnation.
