Product catalog summary

Introduction
This document provides an overview of the specifications and guidelines for glazed porcelain stoneware tiles manufactured by Rondine S.p.A., in accordance with the UNI EN 14411 standard. This standard specifies the terms, requirements, and marking criteria for high-quality ceramic tiles. Rondine S.p.A. ensures compliance through regular testing and quality control.

Specifications
The tiles are sized at 34x34 cm (13 1/2”x13 1/2”) with a thickness of 8.5 mm, available in colors such as Ivory, Grey, and Brown. They are suitable for both floor and wall applications in residential and low-traffic public areas, offering slip and frost resistance and ease of cleaning.

Laying Recommendations
Before installation, verify the shade, size, and material choice. Use tiles from multiple boxes for a consistent color mix. Ensure the substrate is stable, dry, and at the correct temperature. Use suitable adhesives and prevent gaps between the tile and substrate. For rectified products, a minimum joint of 2 mm is recommended, while non-rectified products require a 3 mm joint. Expansion joints are necessary for large areas.

Grouting and Cleaning
Grouting should be done carefully to avoid contrast color issues due to microporosity. Remove excess grout immediately and clean thoroughly with buffered acids a few days after laying. FILA Deterdek is recommended for cleaning. Epoxy mortar can be used for waterproof grouting, but expert application is crucial to avoid aesthetic damage.

Maintenance
For smooth surfaces, daily cleaning with Fila Cleaner is recommended, along with periodic anti-stain treatments. Proper maintenance protects against damage from markers, ink, and rust. FILA products are recommended for ongoing maintenance.

Conclusion
Proper installation and maintenance are essential for the performance and longevity of Rondine's ceramic tiles. Adhering to the guidelines ensures optimal results and minimizes potential issues.
