Manufacturing of concrete tiles, involves technic and art, and in Onistone we take both of them
seriously. We use the finest raw materials that passed through a rigorous quality control
and we engineered the precise formula that guarantees the best performance and results.
Slabs are casted into special molds designed and built by our technical staff. The molds provide the look and texture of the tile surface but also furnish its flatness. The mixture is vibrated to very high frequency, eliminating air bubbles and gravitating the finest particles to
the bottom.
Slabs are then allowed to cure naturally under a controlled environment. After
demolded manually, each slab is then cut to size using multi-head
cutting machines which give all tiles its geometric precision. Once cut, each tile is then prepared and finished with a protective layer of a silicon based pre-sealer.
This process allows us to offer an excellent product with an outstanding look and other important features:
 |
Resistance
Concrete keeps curing and hardening for 70+ years which gives the tiles its resiliency and
durability. Not a mystery why then all the large engineering projects rely on concrete: dams,
the Panama Canal, skyscrapers, and many more. |
 |
Versatility
Concrete can be shaped and colored to satisfy the most whimsical tastes. Concrete tiles can
be cut, sawed, sand-blasted, sanded, drilled, honed, ground or submitted to any mechanical treatment that fits the client's necessity. We can produce tiles with polished, matte or textured
finishes. |

Character
Even though concrete tiles can be compared to those manufactured from natural stone,
concrete possesses a personality of its own. Its clean, modern and aesthetic look; its warmth; the way it absorbs sound waves; the way it treats the surrounding light helping architects and
designers to create astounding atmospheres; all these make Onistone concrete tiles a unique
piece of engineering. |
 |
Adaptability
Our concrete tiles can adapt to any climate and are not affected by freeze and thaw cycles.
Our concrete tiles also adapt to different tastes and styles; to big and small areas; to classical or contemporary trends; to residential or commercial areas; to floor coverings or wall
cladding; to pedestrian or vehicle traffic; to minimalist or sophisticated ambience. |
