Proprietary Technology
Our kiln-fired ceramic tile murals are made with an advanced high-resolution image transfer technology. Our production does NOT use Dye Sublimation. (see Production Process & Tech Specs). The technology is a kiln fired, non toxic, environmentally friendly process that guarantees high standards in terms of visual image quality, clarity and durability. All mural tiles are fired at very high temperatures (1650 °F, 900 °C) on the finest porcelain body tile making - the finished product very durable.
Our products are resistant to:
| ► Extreme Climates (will not crack) ► UV-Rays (guaranteed not to fade) ► Graffiti (can be removed) ► Scratching (does not scratch) ► Wear (suitable for high traffic areas) ► Chemicals (won't harm surface or image) |
 |
We provide independent laboratory certificates to substantiate these claims.
Color Reproduction
Some brands of ceramic pigments in the red,yellow, orange and pink colors have a tendency to change shade when fired at very high temperatures.
 |
However, this is not the case when using our proprietary technology to create tile art or custom tile murals. We are able to provide the best color matching in the industry. With our newly developed ceramic color pigments, we are able to accurately reproduce any color (incl. most of Pantone® colors,) even when fired to 1650 F or higher.
