H20: 20 mm Gres in evolution

Provence

The new Provence series enriches and completes the Stone and Marble collection made by Ceramica Rondine.

The floors of the ancient Provencale farmhouses have inspired these lines, which reinterprets them by making the graphics and colours more sophisticated and by lending this stone a "lived" and elegant effect, suitable for every environment: classic and modern.

Timeless

Rustic does not mean unrefined, on the contrary, this wood effect is extremely minimal and elegant, although it brings the flavor of the craftsmanship. In its multiple sizes, this porcelain stoneware is perfect for any type of environment. In the classic colors Ecrù, Honey, Nut and in the more modern variants Greige and Ivory, it is a must in the design sector.

Timeless rustic wood effect tile meets all design trends and thanks to its wide combinability with all styles, it will remain eternal, even when you want to upset the furnishings!

Loft

The inspiration for this new project called "Loft" was born from the traditional industrial concrete flooring. The natural form of cement has been elegantly mixed in six colors and in different sizes: from 30x60 to the new 100x100. The Loft series is very resistant and adaptable to several design; it allows to furnish your rooms with a minimal style, that will not go unnoticed.

Volcano

Think of a tile able to bring a unique touch of character to any setting. A decoration and design element that’s the perfect partner for elegant, inviting living spaces. And there you have it: Volcano, the new collection by Ceramica Rondine.

Emilia

Emilia, takes its name from the ancient Via Emilia founded more than 2000 years ago by the Roman consul Marco Emilio Lepido, and is the result of the union between thick porcelain stoneware, the classic shape of the block and the variety of colors and micaceous effects of the quartzite.

Aurelia

Inspired by the ancient consular road from which it takes its name, the Aurelia series is born.

H20 and the installation systems

H20 is an innovative self-supporting outdoor flooring system designed by Ceramica Rondine.
Easy and versatile to install, even by non- specialized personnel, it can be laid dry on gravel or grass, cemented onto sub-floors, and installed as a raised surface on rigid supports made of recycled and recyclable plastic material.

Dry installation on gravel

Dry installation on gravel is simple on both the ground and on flat supports. When installing on the ground, we recommend using gravel or sand with a mixed granulometry of 0.5 to 8 mm, along with an underlying honeycomb bed and drainage layer before direct contact with the ground. Installation on a flat covering involves the use of separation layers between the gravel and the support.

Installation with adhesive

Installation with adhesive on a flat covering involves the use of separation layers between the gravel and the support, which include: grading screed, waterproofing layer, thermal insulation layer and separation mat.
NOTE: For best drainage of the walking surface, longitudinal/transverse or oblique gradients must be created by installing a layer of draining materials during leveling or compacting.

Dry installation on grass

Installation on grass involves placing 5-6 cm of sand between the ground and the tile.
Care must be taken to excavate so that the height of installation is lowered, thus raising the level of grassy lawn slightly higher than that of the tiles, which will prevent contact between lawnmower blades and the edges of the tiles.

Raised installation on roofs

With raised installation on flat roofs, floating pavement can be built on fixed, adjustable spacing supports made of recycled and recyclable plastic material, which can be adjusted manually or with a height adjuster. Thanks to the raised supports, pavements can be built with gaps at different heights that provide ventilation to the lower layers, thus preventing mold and residual moisture, and enable the pavement systems to be arranged, maintained and modified with ease.
