WALL TILES
Wall covering features
Wall tiles provide a layer that is generally installed for decorative or protective purposes. There are many types of wall tiles on the market, but the large-format technical stone tile is undoubtedly a firm favorite.
Whether for tiling indoor or outdoor walls, these large-format wall tiles are the most comprehensive construction option.
As well as being a very resistant and durable material, very little maintenance is required, which is a highly valued quality when choosing a tile for the kitchen , for the bathroom, and even for outdoor areas, where the technical requirements are far more demanding.
If this material is used as cladding for ventilated facades, it offers the important added bonus of improving thermal and acoustic insulation since it is an ultra-compact material that, thanks to its non-porous nature, does not deform or expand when subjected to outdoor conditions. In addition to these crucial qualities for an outdoor tile, a material like Coverlam is also unaffected by solar radiation, does not change color over time, and requires practically no maintenance.
In addition to these very important qualities for an exterior coating, a material like Coverlam is not affected by solar radiation, does not change tone over time, and requires virtually no maintenance.
Furthermore, the wide-ranging catalog of Coverlam products on offer means the decoration of each space can be customized to suit the personal tastes and specific needs of each one.
In turn, the fact that the slabs are only 3.5 mm thick enables clean installations , as they can be laid on top of existing wall tiles without the need for any demolition work, avoiding noise and debris; On the other hand, the large format of up to 1200 × 3600 mm means fewer pieces are used. All these aspects help save time in a renovation, by up to 38 minutes per square meter.
APPLICATIONS OF TECHNICAL STONE TILES
The most common uses of technical stone tiles are in the bathroom, the kitchen and exterior spaces. This is largely due to exacting technical demands in these areas, depending on their varying exposure to humidity, water, food, chemical products or to the outdoors and inclement weather.
That is why the most suitable wall tile is technical stone—a material whose strength and durability means its appearance remains unchanged over time with hardly any maintenance, and whose low porosity yields a surface that is resistant to water and stains, also making it a more hygienic option .
COATING KITCHEN
As a kitchen cladding , sintered stone wall cladding is undoubtedly a big favorite, not only for its low-maintenance and stain-resistant qualities, but also for the advantages offered by Coverlam’s large sintered kitchen stones.
COATING BATHROOM
As in kitchens, bathrooms find synthetic stone cladding the ideal material, especially due to its low porosity and antibacterial surface.
On the other hand, the use of large sintered stones for bathrooms reduces the number of joints, limiting the deposition of bacteria and mold in them, allowing the space to visually expand, making it aesthetically cleaner.

COATING ABROAD
For tiling outdoor spaces —including terraces and the lining of swimming pools—a material like Coverlam should be used, as it is ultra-resistant, extremely durable and remains unchanged over time despite having to withstand extreme weather conditions. Since it does not deform or expand and does not change color in the sun, it is also the ideal choice for facade cladding, an increasingly popular application.
