The full set of figures with their test methods: water absorption, flexural strength, service temperature, fire class, stain resistance, weight and carbon footprint.
A comparison across composition, water absorption, strength, format, weight, maintenance and carbon footprint — with figures for every point and an honest answer on when porcelain is enough.
Five formats in production, three thicknesses and six surface types. The rule is simple: 6 mm for walls and facades, 9 mm for small areas, 12 mm for anything that carries load.
