Casalgrande Padana’s outdoor tile collections
Ideas and suggestions for choosing the right tiles for terraces, balconies, verandas, patios and walkways.
When planning your space, choosing the right outdoor tiles that don’t stray too much from the ones you chose for your interiors is essential to create seamless, harmonious surfaces. Outdoor areas – terraces, porticos, verandas, and winter gardens – may be used differently according to the time of the year.
Casalgrande Padana has the perfect solution for beautiful outdoor spaces: Extragres 2.0. This range includes the vast array of colours and 20 mm thickness of iconic collections like Amazzonia, Chalon, Country Wood, Kerblock, Le Ville (in the Pisani e Valmanara colours), Manhattan, Metropolis, Nature, Petra, Pietra Baugè, and Pietre di Sardegna (now available in the 120x120 cm format and the Caprera, Porto Cervo, Porto Rotondo, Punta Molara, and Tavolara colours).
And now, the range has further expanded with the English Wood and Era collections.
Extragres 2.0 tiles are long-lasting, thanks to porcelain stoneware’s technical features. They can be laid on screed with adhesive, ensuring high load resistance, or dry-laid on sand, gravel, or turf. In this case, they can be walked on immediately and don’t require screed, mortar, grout, or adhesive. This way, they become a sustainable solution that speeds up the installation process. In addition, they can be removed and reused at any time.
Moreover, these tiles’ 20 mm thickness allows for creating raised floors using fixed and height-adjustable polypropylene pedestals. Outdoor raised floors are easy to remove and inspect. They also allow you to hide the electrical and plumbing systems underneath them.
Casalgrande Padana’s outdoor porcelain stoneware tiles are frost-resistant and withstand humidity, seawater, and temperature fluctuations. In addition, they are non-absorbent, fire-resistant, and ensure light fastness. These tiles ensure excellent wear, mechanical, and load resistance. Finally, they don’t fear mould and musk; they are easy to clean and lay and can be easily removed for inspections, even once the floor is finished.
Casalgrande Padana porcelain stoneware tiles are functional, versatile, and environmentally sustainable. They are 100% made in Italy using solely natural raw materials through a closed-cycle manufacturing process in which sophisticated anti-pollution equipment allows all the components to be recycled and reused with substantially zero emissions or dispersions.
