PRODUCTS AND PROMOTIONS
Most of the products in the catalog on this site contain, on the relevant product page, a description, details of technical characteristics, an in-depth data sheet as well as resources made available directly from the manufacturers themselves. In addition, you can check out the free guides. If you cannot find the information you need on the site, you can always contact us to ask for our support.
To calculate the quantity of product to be ordered,the dimensions of the area to be paved/coated must be measured to obtain the “net” square meters of plates or slats needed, to which the percentage of “scrap” should be added. We always recommend adding a 10% scrap. In any case, when purchasing interior and exterior wall and floor covering products, our automatic calculators will kick in to tell you which products and quantities to add to your cart, for a complete floor of all the items you need.
Scrap is the waste resulting from cutting or drilling operations that will be necessary during the laying phase. This percentage should take into account the joint size, as a larger joint size implies less tile consumption, and the installation pattern, as fewer tiles are needed for a horizontal installation than for a diagonal installation choice.
The choice of format also affects the amount to be considered for waste: in fact, a small format such as a 20×20 cm or a 30×30 cm has less waste than a large format. It should also be considered that the presence of some critical elements, such as columns for a cladding or irregular room shapes (trapezoids or triangles), imply a greater amount of waste during the laying phase.
Finally, all things being equal, the rule of thumb is that the larger the rooms to be paved, the smaller the amount to be considered for scrap will be. Finally, consider that a minimum of 10 percent waste is necessary to proceed with the installation of any floor or wall covering. In case you have leftover material you can always return it, although we recommend keeping it aside for future replacement of damaged or time-worn floor parts.
No, we do not sell second-rate products. There is on the portal a outlet section where to buy cheaper, but still quality and technically sound products. These products cost less because they could be produced by foreign Companies or otherwise be made from materials with weights and characteristics that make the final products cheaper, both because of their final form and because of the less expensive process through which they are produced.
We are available both at our office and through face-to-face online video-call sessions. Book your slot and resolve your doubts and questions.
