Specification
Our tile is enameled with a proprietary blend of ceramic pigment
and glass frit. We have developed our own formula to ne tune our
properties of opacity and color correctness. We continually develop
these water based enamels with lead free ceramic pigments, as well
ultra low emissions of harmful chemical during the manufacturing
process. Our paints are water based which means a comfortable work
environment, with no risk or discomfort to our workers. Ultimately
this gives absolute control of pigmentation and colorization of our
tile. Our Hand Painted series is in fact hand painted! This gives the
product a unique variation from piece to piece; every installation, and
tile, is unique.
Our tiles are cut with sate of the art CNC glass cutting machines
resulting in the most accurate glass cuts possible. All of our
tile is made to order, means we can easily modify our sizing to
accommodate designer’s requirements to ne tune the sizing to avoid
odd size o cuts, or to assist is in large scale installations. Our tiles
are sized nominally in inches and the actual sizes are commonly
undersized to accommodate for 1/8” grout lines.

Precision of Manufacture
We use primarily 6mm thick glass that comes in two basic types. The
two basic types of glass used are known as ‘regular clear oat glass’
and well as ‘ultra clear glass’. Ultra clear glass is also known as ‘low
iron glass’ as it is characteristic for its ultra clear properties due to
the fact that this glass has a lower iron content. Low iron in the glass
production process results in a much clearer color of the glass. Both
types of glass maintain similar physical characteristics aside from
clarity and light transmission. Generally regular oat glass, due to its
slight hint of green -blue color is suitable for colors in the blue range.
Colors that require absolute clarity without interference such as red,
yellows, brown and some grays – we use the ultra clear glass.
