Product catalog summary

Design and Patterns:
The Azulej collection, designed by Patricia Urquiola in 2012, features a variety of patterns that allow for endless combinations. There are 9 single patterns and 27 different patterns available in sizes of 20x20 cm (8”x8”). The collection includes colors such as Bianco, Grigio, and Nero.

Material and Production:
The tiles are made from rectified homogeneous porcelain stoneware with cold digital printing glazing. They have a thickness of 10mm and are produced industrially.

Technical Features:
The Azulej tiles have a water absorption rate of 0.04%, significantly below the required <0.5%. They exhibit a surface hardness of 6 on the Mohs scale and are resistant to thermal shock, frost, and chemical attacks. The breaking strength is 2525.1 N, and they have a slip resistance rating of R9.

Environmental Considerations:
The production process respects environmental standards by reintroducing excess materials and using recycled content. The tiles are free from volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and the production system is ISO 14001:2004 certified.

Packing Information:
The tiles are packed with 25 pieces per square meter, with a total of 72 boxes per pallet. The weight per box is 21.38 kg, and the total weight per pallet is 1540 kg. The skirting tiles are packed separately with 10 pieces per box.

LEED Certification:
The Nero and Grigio tiles contain 15.8% recycled material, while the Bianco tiles contain 8.6% recycled material.

TECHNICAL INFO La collezione Azulej rientra nella tipologia dei prodotti "industrial" di Mutina. Viene realizzata in gres porcellanato smaltato attraverso il modemo sistema di "decorazione in digitale a freddo" che consente di decorare in modo diverso ed indipendente durante il medesimo ciclo produttivo. La principale novita introdotta da Mutina nell'utilizzo di questa tecnologia, e il modo leggero di calibrare il mix dei colon in modo da rendere naturale e quasi materica la grafica realizzata senza l'effetto stampato ed artificiale di una mera riproduzione fotografica. II rispetto per l'ambiente...
