Product catalog summary

Installation Guidelines:

Follow manufacturer instructions and be mindful of material working times.
Inspect materials before installation; claims on installed materials are not accepted.
Lay out at least 3 sqm using tiles from multiple boxes to ensure consistency in size, shade, and sorting.
Maintain a 3 mm grout line between tiles due to vitrification tolerances.
Avoid marking tiles with pencils or pens.
Wait 48-72 hours before walking on the floor.
Do not stagger strips by more than 25% of their length.

Rectified Materials:

Maintain a minimum 2 mm joint for single format installations.
Avoid closed joint tiling to prevent issues from structural movement and thermal expansion.

Grouting:

Use grout matching the tile color; avoid dark grout on light tiles.
Grout only when the floor is walkable and residue-free.
Grout small areas at a time and clean excess with sponges or machines.
For cement-based grouts, clean residue with a damp sponge and use acid-based detergents after 4-5 days.
For epoxy grouts, follow manufacturer instructions due to rapid hardening.

Cleaning and Maintenance:

Initial cleaning post-installation is crucial for long-term maintenance.
Use acid-based cleaning to remove construction residues, ensuring grout joints are wet to prevent erosion.
Routine maintenance should use neutral detergents; avoid abrasive items on glossy tiles.
For heavy dirt, use alkaline detergents and rinse thoroughly.
For metallized tiles, use neutral pH products and test cleaning products in advance.

Recommendations:

Avoid using stain removers with hydro-fluoric acid.
Cleaning characteristics vary based on laying method and tile surface.
Serenissima is not responsible for issues arising from incorrect laying or cleaning.

Treatment of Honed and Polished Products:

Post-laying acid cleaning is recommended, followed by anti-stain protection.
Inform layers and consignees of guidelines to prevent issues during or after laying.

Extraordinary Care: Specific cleaning products are recommended on a case-by-case basis when standard agents are ineffective.

Metallic Materials: For cleaning metallic tiles, avoid acidic or alkaline-based cleaners. Use only neutral pH products and test on a few uninstalled tiles before rinsing thoroughly.

Notes: Tile cleanliness varies based on installation type, usage, surface, and location. Rougher tiles are harder to clean. Preliminary tests on uninstalled materials are advised. Serenissima is not responsible for issues from improper installation, cleaning, or material selection.

Polished and Honed Materials: Polishing or honing may cause surface porosity and cleaning difficulties. An acid-based cleaning post-installation is recommended to prevent stain absorption.

Cleaning and Maintenance Products: Follow packaging instructions for detergents and perform preliminary tests on tiles, especially polished or honed products.

Manufacturers: The document lists several manufacturers such as Fila Industria Chimica, Mapei, Kerakoll, Bonasystems Italia, Faber Chimica, and Periscopio, providing contact details and websites for further information.

CARATTERISTICHE TECNICHE Technical characteristics . Caractéristiques techniques . Technische daten . Texнические характеристики. Laying and cleaning . Pose et lavage . Verlegung und Reinigung La resistenza allo scivolamento è una caratteristica che ricade su sicurezza e salute degli utilizzatori, ovviamente nel caso di pavimentazioni. Le superfici scivolose sono potenziali cause di infortuni, anche gravi sia in ambito civile che negli ambienti di lavoro. La grandezza che quantifica la resistenza allo scivolamento è il coefficiente di attrito (statico o dinamico), al quale è proporzionale la...

POSA E PULIZIA Laying and cleaning . Pose et lavage . Verlegung und Reinigung Con il lavaggio acido dopo posa si eliminano i residui di posa e il normale sporco di cantiere come: malta, colla, pittura, sporco da cantiere di varia natura. E’ bene sapere che oltre il 90% delle contestazioni in cantiere è dovuto ad un cattivo, o addirittura inesistente, lavaggio con detergente acido dopo posa. Per evitare che un prodotto a base acida usato per la prima pulizia vada ad intaccare il riempimento a base cementizia delle fughe, è necessario, prima dell’operazione di pulizia, bagnare il pavimento affinché...

POSA E PULIZIA Laying and cleaning . Pose et lavage . Verlegung und Reinigung CONSEILS POUR LA POSE La réalisation optimale d’un carrelage en grès cérame de Serenissima est due non seulement aux qualités techniques et esthétiques du matériel, mais aussi à un ensemble d’éléments (fond, couche de liant, joints de dilatation, ect.) constituant un véritable système. Les opérations de pose, exécutées dans la suite exacte, doivent etre considérées importantes comme le choix des carreaux. Pour le choix du produit collant plus convenable et pour les modalités d’application, il est conseillé de se conformer...

POSA E PULIZIA Laying and cleaning . Pose et lavage . Verlegung und Reinigung peinture, ciment, etc. ... Nous vous rappelons que 90% et plus des litiges sur les chantiers sont dus à de mauvaises applications de produits de nettoyage à base d’acides, ou encore à la complète absence de traitements après la pose. Pour éviter que le lavage après la pose à base acide puisse détériorer le ciment des joints, il est nécessaire de mouiller la surface pour permettre l’absorption d’eau et donc la protection contre l’action érosive sur les joints. Si le premier nettoyage après la pose doit être fait après...
