DescriptionContempo Thunderstorm Porcelain Paving is a high quality Italian porcelain supplied in a 450 x 900 x 20mm size to provide that modern linear format. Thunderstorm porcelain paving has a dark grey-blue colouring, with lighter white-grey streaks running through. Thunderstorm has a gently riven surface and moderate shading variation akin to that of natural stone.Exceptionally durable and low maintenance pavingLike all our Contempo porcelain tiles, this paving is especially designed for outdoor use; it is 20mm thick, and has high resistance to breaking load and great slip-resistance. The slabs are produced by pressing and vitrifying (fusing into a single material) natural raw materials (sand, quartz, feldspars, kaolin, clays and natural colourants). Because it is fired at temperatures above 1230°C, the porcelain is extremely strong and hard-wearing with practically no water absorption at all. This means when you choose Contempo porcelain, you’ll get a paving slab that is:Slip resistant surface (R11)Low maintenance and easy to clean including with a jet washFrost, scratch and fade resistantFull colour-bodiedFully rectified to ensure uniform size and squarenessResistant to stains and mildewEasy to layAlso available as an internal tileIf you are looking to create a seamless space from inside your home to your garden, we can supply thinner floor tiles for internal use. These 9mm internal tiles are slightly smoother than their 20mm thick equivalent flagstones, which are a little more textured for grip as they are designed for external use. Just ask us for details.Special pieces to orderIf you need alternative sizes or special pieces (steps, copings, risers, drain gullies etc) we can supply these to order.Product informationThe overall dimensions quoted are nominal which means the actual size of the tile could be a few mm smaller than the nominal size quoted. If overall dimension is critical, check with our sales team to confirm the size we currently have in stock. The size, colour and texture of porcelain may vary slightly between production batches. We therefore recommend that you purchase what you need for your project at the same time if possible. You can also keep a record of the ‘batch number’ in case you need to order more in future. This will usually be on the packaging described as a ‘tono’ or ‘shade’ number.
