Patio tiles with a natural stone look

A low-maintenance ‘natural stone’ patio

This garden in Eindhoven exudes a subtle sense of luxury thanks to GeoCeramica® Ardes: a patio tile with a striking natural stone look. The appearance of natural stone is much loved by many. Examples of natural stone include lava stone, slate, marble, granite and limestone. These types of stone are stunning to look at, but are also susceptible to damage such as scratches and acid. GeoCeramica® offers the perfect solution: your patio gets the much-loved look of natural stone whilst being low-maintenance. This garden in Eindhoven is a perfect example of this. The patio has been laid with GeoCeramica® Ardes Grigio, a beautiful interpretation of stone in its purest form. With its subtle textures and nuances, this patio tile is just as appealing as natural stone, whilst offering all the advantages of ceramic. This makes GeoCeramica® the ideal patio tiles for many!

Advantages of ceramic patio tiles

Ceramic patio tiles offer many advantages. As well as being low-maintenance, they are also:

Scratch-, acid- and chlorine-resistant
Frost-resistant and heat-resistant
UV-resistant, so no discolouration
Available in an endless variety of luxurious designs

GeoCeramica® offers yet another advantage with its ‘ceramic-on-concrete’ concept. The ceramic top layer is permanently bonded to the concrete substrate, including integrated spacers. This makes installation relatively straightforward and, as a result, installation costs are lower than with traditional (2 cm) ceramic patio tiles.

An endless variety of designs

GeoCeramica® patio tiles come in countless designs and sizes. From a wood-effect finish to a natural stone-effect finish, from a rugged concrete-effect finish to colourful patterns. With ceramics, virtually any design and any (natural) material can be replicated. Take wood, for example. A very beautiful natural material, but also highly susceptible to weathering. With a GeoCeramica® ‘decking’, you get the look you want, which remains beautiful for a long time and is almost indistinguishable from ‘the real thing’. This is made possible by a special printing technique applied to ceramic. With ceramics, a single design consists of different prints per tile, ranging from a minimum of 6 to sometimes as many as 20 prints. Because you can rotate the tiles during installation, this creates a very natural effect. This is how the beautiful patio tiles with a natural stone look are created, including the Ardes range featured in the Eindhoven garden.
