What are rectified tiles?
All natural tiles vary slightly between production runs. Sizes change
between batches and this means that mixing & matching different
production batches is seldom possible. Rectified tiles are
deliberately made over-size, and are then cut on a diamond saw at the
factory to a common calibre. The square, saw-cut edges allow for finer
(narrower) grout joints between tiles and result in a beautiful and
contemporary finished look. Rectified calibration also means that
rectified tiles will still work together when modular sizes are mixed.
Rectified products have increased in popularity over recent times. Note
that rectified tiles need to be installed on a good surface (square &
level), and your tiler should be experienced with the requirements for
laying this kind of product.
