The 2-cm-thick slabs from the Terrace-Garden-Patio collection (TOP), laid in a “ventilated” or “raised” configuration is a solution increasingly used to finish balcony or terrace surfaces due to its simplicity and speed of installation. It is becoming more and more popular among both private individuals and developers.
Beautiful yet durable porcelain tiles from the exclusive “TOP” product line by Polbruk are this year’s new addition to the brand’s product portfolio. Resistance to weather conditions, moisture, and mold growth, as well as ease of cleaning, are key features defining the products in this line for demanding applications. These slabs combine the durability and beauty of natural stone in shades of gray. The product’s exceptional thickness—2 cm—along with its high abrasion resistance rating, ensures it can withstand capricious weather and heavy flower pots.
CERRO - The modernity of concrete
Inspired by industrial trends in architecture and modeled after the graphics and texture of concrete, the “Cerro” collection of exceptional porcelain stoneware tiles is a unique offering for those seeking exceptionally durable and sturdy tiles for patios, gardens, or for use in public and commercial spaces.
Cerro These tiles measure 59.30 x 59.30 cm and are 2 cm thick, available in two colors—dark gray melange (cosmo) and a very light gray shade (adular) that borders on white. The technology used in their production ensures the highest quality standards, including exceptional durability and weather resistance.
However, the “Cerro” collection is not only about high quality and durability but also features original tile designs inspired by modern textured concrete. As a result, the tiles blend perfectly with their surroundings—on the patio and in the garden.
Tono - the elegance of natural stone texture
The elegance of stone combined with the versatility of gray tones—already well-known in the market through the nerino and dark dim colorways—ensures that the Tono porcelain stoneware tiles will elegantly complement the entire outdoor design around the home, and will serve as a subtle backdrop for the greenery on the patio. The perfect reflection of nature in our tile patterns creates the impression that we are looking at real stone. Thanks to patterns that faithfully replicate nature, the designed space feels incredibly authentic and visually striking.
Ease of Installation
Thanks to modern technology and high-quality specifications, these tiles—which are as thick as 2 cm—are highly versatile. Their unique advantage is so-called “dry installation,” i.e., the ability to lay the tiles without adhesive, directly on the ground (grass, gravel, or sand). We recommend installing porcelain tiles from the TOP line using adjustable or fixed supports. It’s a simple and convenient solution. Support systems help create any desired surface, even on an uneven terrace or at varying heights.
Laying 2 cm-thick porcelain tiles on gravel is also a stylish and practical solution, suitable for use both around homes and in public spaces. This solution is ideal for projects where aesthetics are a priority or when it is not possible to install the tiles permanently.
In addition, porcelain tiles from Cerro and Tono can also be installed, depending on the intended location:
- on grass—recommended for gardens
- on sand—in recreational areas, on beaches, and at swimming areas
- or on adhesive mortar—in gardens, on porches, along alleys, and on paths.
General Care Guidelines
Porcelain tiles should be cleaned using commercially available products designed for this type of material. Glazed tiles are manufactured in a way that allows them to be used without additional protection; therefore, the use of sealants is not recommended. For regular maintenance of the tiles, use only products intended for porcelain tile surfaces.
