The power of extruded porcelain stoneware in special pieces

When building a swimming pool, complex geometries come into play that standard floor tiles cannot handle neatly. Corner pieces, edging, skirting, grating, corners and other finishing elements are required. These are all three-dimensional elements that are shaped using extrusion.

Why is extrusion the key to three-dimensional pieces?

Unlike traditional pressing, which compacts dry powder to produce strictly flat, two-dimensional tiles, the extrusion process works with a mass of wet, highly plastic clay. This mass is forced under high pressure through a die or extrusion bar, which works like a mold with the exact outline of the desired profile.

Al pasar por esta matriz, la arcilla adopta de forma natural geometrías complejas. Todo ello se forma en una única pieza continua que se corta a medida y se cuece a altas temperaturas. Al nacer de un moldeado continuo y no tener uniones, la pieza no solo adquiere el volumen necesario para resolver el borde de una piscina, sino que logra una resistencia excepcional.

This is the process that can shape clay into extruded porcelain extruido ideal para aplicaciones en exteriores y zonas de alto tránsito. En Gres Aragón hemos desarrollado una gama de specialized pool tiles that provide a solution for every detail. These three-dimensional tiles eliminate unsightly cuts and joints, creating claddingthat is seamless, safe and visually uninterrupted..
