Technical Information

Recommendations
A 2 mm joint is recommended for rectified tiles. The collection's versatility suits various architectural designs, offering aesthetic appeal and functional benefits.

Specifications and Procedures
The document details procedures for drilling and joining tiles using diamond drills and angle grinders, emphasizing double gluing with cement-based adhesive class C2F S1/S2. The surface must be clean, and dust removed before application. Adhesive should be spread linearly with a notched trowel, ensuring a thickness of 13-14 mm. Air bubbles should be removed by vibration, and leveling spacers are recommended.

Standards and Recommendations
A 2 mm joint width is suggested for rectified products. Grout colors should match tiles for aesthetics. Compatibility of grout materials with ceramic tiles is crucial, and excess grout should be removed while fresh. Cleaning should use acid-based products (max 3%) per manufacturer instructions. Outdoor installations must comply with European standards EN 14411/ISO 13006-ISO 10545.12.

Maintenance Instructions
Post-installation, residues should be cleaned with appropriate products. Alkaline-based products can remove rims on polished materials. Frost resistance for outdoor ceramics is ensured by following specific guidelines. Decorations with glazes and precious metals require protection during installation.

Cleaning Guidelines
Specific cleaning agents are recommended for different stains: alkaline-based detergents for organic stains, acid-based for calcareous deposits and rust, and solvents for wax and tape residues.

Technical Information
Technical specifications include skid resistance (DIN 51130, DIN 51097, DCOF), thickness variations, and color shade variations (V1 to V4). Sizes and thicknesses are nominal and may vary.

Company Background
Piemme, established in 1962, is a leader in Italian ceramic tile production, known for excellence and innovation, using advanced technology like digital inkjet decoration and eco-friendly methods.

Il Limestone è una pietra naturale molto apprezzata, oltre che per la resistenza, per la sua monocromia e le sottili venature di tonalità chiara che la rendono versatile e trasversale per la progettazione architettonica. Le colorazioni, bianca, beige, grigia e nera, derivano dalle diverse formazioni geologiche dei paesi dalle quali provengono: la brillantezza della pietra calcarea bianca italiana, le sfumature dorate della pietra francese, l’autenticità della pietra inglese e l’eleganza della pietra nera belga, fedeli riproduzioni delle rocce originali. Limestone is a natural stone highly appreciated...
