Technical Data

Composition

Non-comentitious hydrated calcium silicate, reinforcing fibres and natural fillers. Free form formaldehyde and other hramful meterials. Does not contain any toxic ingredients.

Manufacturing Process

Lime and silica are reacted to produce hydrated calcium silicate slurry which is mixed with reinforcing fibres and fillers and moulded to form a tile in filter presses. These tiles are dried, trimmed, punched and fissured (if required) and then coated to the required surface finish.

Surface

All tiles are prime coated on both sides. Standard finish in two coats white dispersion type, solventfree paint.
