Full Description

Architects, designers and owners appreciate the clean, monolithic look of large format tile on their building projects. Today, their options for large tiles include extremely large tiles – panels that can measure 4′ wide by 10′ long. These panels are produced with a unique processing line and require special care and methods in their installation.

Large format tiles, traditionally pressed porcelain tiles that can come in excess of 4 square feet, are becoming common for wall and floor installations. The Tile Council of North America (TCNA) defines a large format tile as any ceramic or natural stone tile with one edge greater than 15″, and the TCNA Handbook offers specific recommendations for their installation. Custom Building Products offers medium bed mortars and thin-set mortars with medium bed features for the installation of large ceramic and natural stone tile. Understanding the trends and latest developments from tile manufacturers, CUSTOM® formulated a specialized line of mortars for these specific installations.
