Technical data
Tested, by the numbers.
How the PVC-DOT mount works, the EN ISO 10545 test results for our glass mosaic, and the sheet sizes you need to work out quantities.
PVC-DOT perfect joint
Why the mount matters.
Small PVC dots join the tiles at their corners. The dispensing shape is consistent and 93% of the tile back stays available for adhesion, meeting Australian Standard AS 3958.1-2007.
Even dispensingPVC dots are placed the same way on every sheet, for a more perfect and regular layout than other dot-mounted sheets. 
Consistent dot shapeOur dots (image 1) keep a consistent shape, so 93% of the tile back stays available for adhesion. 
2.5 mm below the surfaceEach PVC dot sits 2.5 mm below the tile face (image 3), so the adhesive covers it completely for a clean finish. 
More room for groutThe spaces between our tiles (image 5) are slightly wider and straighter than an imitation sample (image 6), leaving more room for grout.
Test report
Passes every test.
Results from the test report in our catalogue, against the requirements of the EN ISO 10545 series of ceramic tile tests.
Class 5 is the highest stain-resistance class. GA is the highest class for resistance to household chemicals and swimming pool salts.
