Back5 MM
A lightweight product, slender and tough
with ecological design
The close cooperation between research and industrial production led the Cooperativa Ceramica d'Imola to increasingly develop innovative solutions to meet diversified living needs. This approach and the relevant company know-how resulted in the creation of a porcelain tile only 5 mm thick which will further increase the application of porcelainized Grès, a concentrate of innovation produced in accordance with standard UNI EN ISO 14411-G which regulates ceramic production in porcelainized Grès. Less thickness and weight are advantageous factors for certain uses: the 5 mm can be used both for paving and facing.
5 mm thickness means that the existing surface can be covered without the need to demolish floors or walls in the living spaces, thus reducing the disturbance and operation costs
the 5 mm is not only synonymous of innovation but also of ecosustainability since the reduced thickness results in lower environmental impact because:
- less raw materials are involved in production and packing;
- energy consumption is less because less time is required for the production process;
- there is lower consumption of oil-based products during transport due to the limited weight, thus limiting the dispersion of elements that pollute the environment and are harmful to humans
the reduced weight of the 5 mm, about 13.5 Kg per sq. m., means that the tiles are easier to handle during fixing and transportation and can be cut with a glass-cutter
the 5 mm satisfies the requirements of the standard in force (UNI EN 14411-G) with regard to technical performances governing the ceramic production of porcelainized Grès, thanks to a support with water absorption below 0.1% and with considerable technical characteristics
the surface of the 5 mm can undergo all the glaze and finishes applications typical of traditional
porcelainized Grès, thus ensuring a multiplicity of aesthetic solutions.
