7 mm Wall Tile

Ceramic wall tiles are products made from clay that is fired at high temperatures. They are produced by mixing materials such as clay, kaolin, quartz, and feldspar in specific proportions, then granulated and pressed into shape. The shaped raw tile is called a “biscuit,” which is fired at temperatures above 1100 °C to turn into a tile. To ensure better adhesion to walls, these tiles are produced with a porous structure and have a water absorption rate above 10%.

Ceramic wall tiles are fired at 1130-1160 °C for 36-45 minutes to form the biscuit. After glazing, they are fired again at 1120 °C for 36-45 minutes.

These tiles are always produced with a glazed surface and due to their low density (1.78 gr/cm³), apply less vertical load to structures. They are suitable only for indoor wall use.

With a wide range of colors and designs, ceramic wall tiles can be enriched with decorative elements such as borders and skirting. However, due to their high moisture expansion and water absorption values, they are not suitable for outdoor use.

Wall tiles are used in;

·       Commercial buildings (shopping centers, hotels, offices, banks, restaurants, stores, etc., areas with heavy circulation),

·       Residential areas (luxurious houses, villas etc.),

·       Public buildings (justice halls, municipality buildings, etc.),

·       Education and cultural buildings (schools, theatres, cultural centers, etc.),

·       Walls and exterior facades.
