Installation Considerations 

Proper installation techniques ensure these surfaces perform optimally in wet room settings, where waterproofing systems must integrate flawlessly with tile assemblies.

The uniform thickness and flat back of our porcelain planks facilitate consistent adhesive coverage, crucial for preventing hollow spots where moisture might collect. Design versatility allows for creative installations running the elongated format vertically draws the eye upward in shower areas, while horizontal placement on fabric look subway tiles for floors reinforces the room's width.
