Daniel Platt

 

There are many attributes which set Daniel Platt Natural Clay Floors apart, but the most evident of these must be the sheer purity of their natural colours.   

True, through colours which will not fade or wear away as the colour is an intrinsic element of the tiles themselves.

Market floor

You may choose the classic feel of Traditional or the more modern appeal of Ferrolite but design with them in concert and there are few limits to the effects that can be created.

Timeless values, modern methods. That's the combination which makes the Daniel Platt's range of floor tiles so special.  A combination of which those at Daniel Platt and 023 Tiles are particularly proud.

Uniquely, among floor tile manufacturers Daniel Platt make both Traditional tiles and Ferrolite.  No other supplier offers such a wealth of options - truly a tile for every location and occasion.  No wonder Daniel Platt tiles are found throughout the world, in places as disparate as Jamaican breweries and Californian mansions 

There is little need to elucidate on the strength and longevity of Daniel Platt Natural Clay Floors, nor the modern standards to which they conform. The evidence is in the private homes and public buildings, commercial developments and religious structures throughout the world. The results of 175 years of Craftsmanship can be freely seen by all.

With Daniel Platt tiles, the floor can be a building's crowning glory.     

Traditional & Ferrolite tiles can be used to provide an astonishing variety of styles and special effects. When it comes to strength and durability, Daniel Platt tiles are once again superior.   

Traditional tiles are frequently laid in industrial and other heavy duty locations. This is the finest testimony to their all-round quality. Conforming to EC anti-slip regulations.

The rich seams of Etruria marl, the raw clay, display a unique variety within their strata and, when this is sifted, moulded and fired in the way that only Daniel Platt's craftsmen know how, the result is a Natural Clay Floor of unsurpassed beauty and strength.

There is no benefit in adding coloured pigments or false textures, as Natural Clay has beauty all the way through.

True colours created by natural processes rather than by artificial pigments are a Daniel Platt speciality. 

Colour is crucial to the appeal of Daniel Platt's tiles. Traditional tiles have an intrinsic intensity of colour that improves with age.

Past examples provide a fruitful source of inspiration: the Victorians used contrasting tiles to create geometrical patterns and bands of colour to great effect.

A precisely engineered ceramic body is the outstanding characteristic of Daniel Platt Ferrolite.   

They take the extra trouble to grind their raw clay to a finer consistency prior to pressing and individually firing to produce an especially smooth surface.

Ferrolite tiles are created by blending superior English clays, ground to the finest consistency, homogenised under the most intense pressures and fired at the most tightly controlled temperatures. The result is a superbly consistent colouring which ensures complete uniformity tile after tile.

The sheer quality of the maufacturing process ensures the very smoothest of finishes.

Ferrolite tiles have a standard thickness of 12mm. Thicker - and therefore sturdier - than other dust-pressed ceramic floor tiles.

At 023 Tiles we believe 12mm is the optimum thickness of such a tile. However, we supply a range of thicknesses - from as little as 9mm to a robust 32mm.

Ferrolite has a higher technical specification than traditional tiles.   

The highly mechanised process by which Ferrolite is produced also makes possible a wider range of Daniel Platt's true colours than shown here.

Daniel Platt were the first manufacturer to offer floor tiles in a range of thickness' and now have the largest range of tile thickness' any manufacturer can offer.

Ferrolite tiles and associated fittings are robust enough for the most demanding requirements. Yet, smart enough to be used in the most stylish kitchen, bathroom or swimming pool.

 

Daniel Platt Natural Clay floors naturally exhibit excellent anti-slip properties. For additional slip-resistance there is a variety of textures available, including the Studded, Superstud and Shotfaced designs.

There are Carborundum and Ferrundum tiles, which include silicone carbide grit and are particularly suitable for use in kitchens, changing areas, hospitals and breweries.

 

Traditional or Ferrolite, the finishing touch is provided by the ability to create striking, decorative borders. These can be of your own design, or supplied pre-designed on a material backing to make laying a simple, trouble-free task.
