Kemtile new range from Pilkingtons Tiles Group

Working closely with Kemtile, Pilkington were able to develop a product range that is perfectly suited to perform in food manufacturing and industrial manufacturing locations.

Kemtile welcome a new range from Pilkingtons Tiles Group Plc.

Dorset Hexagon is a new addition to the Dorset Woolliscroft Atlaz Floor Tile range.

It is a 100 x 100 x 100 x 18mm Hexagonal Fully Vitrified Floor with spacer lugs.

The hexagonal shape is better suited for dishing to falls around gullies, which make them ideal in manufacturing environments where regular wash downs are required.

When laid the evidence of the perpendicular lines are less obvious.

They are specifically designed to be laid by the vibration method.

Caroline Woodall, Senior Marketing Manager at Pilkington's explains the background to the launch.

"We identified a gap in the market for high quality, slip resistant, hexagonal tiles, and, working closely with Kemtile, were able to develop a product range that is perfectly suited to perform in food manufacturing and industrial manufacturing locations".

The tiles are available in four colours which match the existing square and rectangular tiles in Pilkington's popular Atlaz range; Grey Steel, Sandstorm, Savanna and Dark Grey.

There are two slip resistant textures Granular R13 and Stipple R11.

The range is available with matching coves and fittings.

Stephen Westley, Director of Kemtile, is delighted with the range.

"Because of their manufactured quality and performance we have been using the Atlaz range in 200x100 for several years".

"We have used them extensively in our core market, the food and drink industry for major manufacturers including Manor Bakeries, Dairy Crest , AG Barr , Cargill and many others".

"We have also tiled about 10 fire stations in Liverpool with the rectangular tiles".

"However, Dorset Hexagon tiles offer distinct advantages over rectangular tiles in the food industry".

"It is very reassuring to know we can source them right on our doorstep".
