Product & Materials (Porcelain, Stone, Quartz)

Porcelain is made from natural clay and fired at extremely high temperatures, making it heat, UV, and scratch-resistant, suitable for both indoors and outdoors. Quartz is an engineered stone containing natural quartz and resin; it is highly durable and non-porous but is generally recommended for indoor use only.
Yes. Our porcelain slabs are fired at high temperatures, making them extremely resistant to heat. While quartz is also durable, we recommend using trivets or hot pads to protect the resin component from thermal shock.

Absolutely. Our Porcelain Pavers and specific stone slabs are UV resistant and durable enough to withstand freezing and thawing cycles, making them perfect for patios, pool decks, and outdoor kitchens.

Large format porcelain refers to oversized slabs that minimize grout lines, creating a seamless, modern look. They are lightweight yet durable, ideal for countertops, wall cladding, and flooring.
Yes, many natural stones like Quartzite and Granite are incredibly dense and durable, making them excellent choices for high-traffic areas. However, some softer stones like Marble may require more maintenance to prevent scratching or etching.

Maintenance & Care

Porcelain is incredibly low maintenance. For daily cleaning, use a damp cloth with warm water and a neutral pH cleaner. It requires no sealing and is resistant to staining.
Yes, natural stone is porous. We recommend sealing your natural stone surfaces upon installation and periodically thereafter to protect against staining and moisture absorption.
For most surfaces, non-abrasive cleaners are best. Avoid harsh chemicals like bleach or acidic cleaners (like vinegar) on natural stone, as they can etch the surface. Always check the specific care guide for your chosen material.

Installation & Technical

In many cases, yes. Due to their slim profile and light weight, large format porcelain can often be installed over existing surfaces, reducing demolition time and cost. Consult with your installer for feasibility.
We offer a wide range of designs, from realistic marble and wood looks to industrial concrete and solid colors. You can browse our collections by “Look” or “Color Palette” on our website.
Yes, our porcelain slabs are heat resistant and non-combustible, making them an excellent and safe choice for fireplace surrounds and cladding.

Installation and Reference Materials:

• For highly slip-resistant, through the body, and unglazed porcelain tiles, special care should be taken when grouting with dark pigmented colors. A grout release
is recommended to prevent finely powdered pigments from lodging in the pores of the tile surface.
• Tiles should be selected and mixed from multiple cartons and shading arrangement planned prior to installation.
• Special consideration needs to be given when installing tiles 20” and larger.
• Once the tile has been cleaned and dried after installation, grout joints should be treated with a sealer. Grout is porous and sealing it will simplify future maintenance (Epoxy grouts do not require a sealer at least twice a year for maximum stain protection.

Installation procedures recommended are those indicated in the current Handbook for Ceramic Tile Installation as published by the Tile Council of America, Inc. Specification
References recommended are those established in the American National Standard Specifications for the installation ceramic tile, as published by the Tile Council of America, Inc. Due consideration must be taken with regard to the subsurface, the intended use of the tile surface, and exposure to foreign substances such as water, oil, acid,
etc. when selecting the type of setting material and grout. If in doubt, the manufacturer of these setting materials should be consulted.

Shade Variations:

Due to inherent variations associated with naturally fired tile products, color and texture variations from samples should be expected. Blending of tiles from at least six different cartons during installation is recommended, as shine/finish can differ under certain lighting conditions. Prior to installation, tile should be approved by the customer. No claims for shade or texture will be honored after installation.

Limits of Liability

Tests are performed on random samples of Raphael Porcelain tile by an independent testing laboratory and are believed to be representative of the general quality of the tile. There is no guarantee by Raphael Porcelain that these exact results will be guaranteed on every tile. Raphael Porcelain extends no guarantees, expressed or implied, as to slip resistance, wear-time period, and gloss or maintenance procedures. Test procedures
and individual results are available from Raphael Porcelain. ANSI A-137.1Raphael Porcelain tile achieves the necessary values for the ANSI A-137.1 (American National Standards Institute) requirement. This is the most complete testing done on ceramic tile and includes tests on thickness, facial dimension, warpage, edging, water absorption, crazing, thermal shock, bonding strength and breaking strength.InstallationConsideration
• Water; oil, grease, etc. create slippery conditions. Floor applications with exposure to these conditions require extra caution in product selection.
• Latex modified thin-set recommended for all porcelains.
