Ceramic and natural stone tiles are not popular for use outdoors in areas where the temperature falls below freezing in winter as cracks often appear or joints open up after cold periods. This is because the tiles are traditionally laid on a concrete floor and attached directly to this; however, both materials exhibit a different expansion behaviour (coefficient of dilatation) with changes in temperature.
The Click’n Walk flooring system for outdoor applications was specifically designed for use on balconies, terraces and in porches as Click’n Walk is laid as a floating floor and the joints themselves are permanently elastic. 5 mm studs on the underside of the Outdoor tile ensure drainage and ventilation - a good solution for terraces and balconies that are directly exposed to rain.
Click’n Walk offers a selection of tiles with R10 and R11 slip resistance for areas where there is a risk of slipping as well as for public spaces.
Click’n Walk tiles are clicked together as their name suggests. Therefore, they can be laid quickly, the floor can be walked on immediately and it requires no drying time. An elegant and radiant appearance, very hard-wearing and extremely easy to clean: the advantages of the Click’n Walk tiles are distinctive.
The many reasons that convinced the builders of a development in Naters in the Upper Valais region to lay the entire 730 m2 balcony floor with Siena Grey Click’n Walk Outdoor tiles. As a builder you appreciate a rapid construction phase as well as a high intrinsic value and therefore improved rentability. Residents enjoy the easy care and their neighbours also enjoy the 17 dB noise insulation.
Click’n Walk Outdoor tiles are available in sizes of approx. 30 x 30 cm and 30 x 60 cm.
