| Chemical and acid staining |
As a calcium carbonate, the product is not chemical and acid resistant. However the
presence of a natural pozzolanic material makes our product less affected than
comparable materials. |
| Stability |
A water/cement ratio of 0.27 gives the material excellent
stability, allowing the use of thinner tiles. |
