Connecting with nature and disconnecting from one’s day-to-day is much easier with a garden area at your home. Whether small or large, it’s the perfect place to relax and enjoy the good weather, especially in summer. The key to creating a nice garden is choosing the ideal flooring. Garden flooring must meet a series of requirements to be adequate for the different seasons of the year and to resist climate changes.
The range of possibilities when choosing garden flooring is (almost) infinite as different wall tiling materials can be used or even flower and plant varieties to achieve a balance between the look, sustainability and high-quality technical features. One of the best options for garden flooring is Exagres extruded porcelain tile with high-tech features and which comes in a wide variety of styles and colours to match with any garden, terrace or home interior, thus achieving aesthetic continuity.
Characteristics of garden flooring
Unlike interior flooring, outdoor garden flooring requires certaintechnical characteristics to bear inclement weather and the abrasion that can be suffered with the passing of time as well as the prolonged use given to these outdoor areas. Some of the most important characteristics include the following:
extruded porcelain tile garden flooring is highly resistant due to the extrusion manufacturing process which means it can bear sudden temperature changes and great changes in weight. Additionally, it is extremely resistant to moisture meaning Exagres outdoor garden flooring is the best choice for exteriors.
Non-slip properties:
because of the low porosity, these materials have the highest non-slip level for exteriors, C-3, meaning it’s perfect for gardens as they are often places with lots of water either from watering plants or being close to a swimming pool.
Easy maintenance:
gardens are usually difficult areas to maintain because of the plants and flowers often found in them which can make everything dirty; thus, it’s important to remember that the type of garden flooring chosen needs to be easy to clean and maintain over time.
A variety of designs:
another advantage of Exagres flooring is the great diversity of designs which can be adapted to any architectural need desired. From the most country-like flooring, such as the collection Gresan, to the most modern of ceramic wall tiling simulating marble, stone or more natural wood.
Outdoor garden flooring
Spatial integration not only implies aesthetic continuity between the interior flooring and the terrace, outdoor garden flooring is now being used as a way to connect and expand areas in the home to enjoy some relaxation.
If you’re looking for an elegant and timeless area, your ideal outdoor garden flooring would be a material with light tones such as the Imperial or Ópera collection to create neutral, pleasant combinations in your garden and terrace.
However, if what you’re looking for is a country-like effect with a modern touch, the all-new Gresan Glazed collections would be just right.
