Specifying calibrated tiles

How calibration and vein-sequencing turn a box of tiles into a single, continuous surface.

By KRONOS
Specifying calibrated tiles

The difference between a good stone floor and a great one is rarely the stone. It is the preparation.

Calibration

Calibrated tiles are ground to a consistent thickness, so they sit flat with minimal lippage and a tight, even joint.

Vein-sequencing

When tiles are cut and numbered in sequence, the movement of the stone continues across the floor — no jarring breaks.

Order one lot

For a single visual field, specify one production lot and request lot photos before delivery.
