STEP 1
A pallet can carry up to 20 boxes.
To prevent damage, 2 pallets should never be
stacked on top of each other. There is a batch
number on every box. Before fitting, check that
the tiles are from the same batch. It is important
that batch numbers are not mixed within an installation
in view of slight colour variations which may occur
from batch to batch. |
| |
STEP 2
The tiles are backed with bitumen.The
temperature for fitting must be between 10°C
and 25°C, at a relative air humidity of approximately 60%. The tiles should
be removed from their outer boxes and laid loosely on
the floor for 24 hours before laying so that they can become conditioned to room temperature
guaranteeing stability. |
| |
| STEP 3 |
|
There is an arrow on the
back of each tile which indicates pile direction.
If laid broadloom or half-bond style, all the
tiles should be laid with the arrows pointing
in the same direction (diagrams 1 and 3). If laid
checkerboard style the arrows should be at 90
degrees to the adjacent tile. (see diagram 2) Start laying with a full tile laid at
the door, continuing to the middle of the room
in parallel with the main wall (see diagram).
Make sure that no pile material is trapped between
the tiles.
This central point is a starting point for the
gradual placement of the other pieces. It is necessary
to use good pressure when placing the tiles. |
|
| |
STEP 4
The tiles can
be placed in different ways: |
 |
| all the arrows point
in the same direction |
|
 |
| arrows at 90 degrees
to each other |
|
 |
| every row is moved
up half a row from the previous one (so
that 4 corners never meet) |
|
|
|
| |
STEP 5
Lastly,
the edges are finished: |
 |
|
• Place the tile
to be cut (2) on the tile laid last
• Slide a third tile (3) against the
wall
• Cut the tile to be placed
(2) along the edge of (3)
• Place
the cut tile (2) against the wall |
|
|
| |
STEP 6
The tiles can be laid without adhesive,
but in doorways and for offices and other heavy-wear
installations we recommend the use of a tackifier adhesive.
Regular vacuum-cleaning will help maintain the appearance
of the tiles. Never use solvents (white spirit, petrol,etc.),
as they can affect the colour. |
