HS Grey 20mm Outdoor Porcelain Paving - Patio Packs

Yes, Kandla Grey Porcelain is designed to perform in both domestic and commercial settings. Its vitrified composition ensures superior durability and weather resistance, making it suitable for homeowners creating stylish patios or garden paths, as well as landscape designers and contractors working on commercial landscaping projects. Whether it’s a quiet courtyard or a high-traffic public space, these slabs hold their finish and structural integrity over time.

They are. The surface of Kandla Grey Porcelain Paving Tiles is textured to provide grip underfoot, and they are rated R11 for slip resistance. This makes them ideal for areas exposed to water such as walkways, poolsides, and outdoor dining areas. Unlike natural stone, porcelain doesn’t become slippery when wet, which reduces the risk of falls and makes these slabs a safer choice for homes with children, elderly residents, or commercial premises.

For long-term performance, 900×600 Kandla Grey Porcelain Slabs should be laid on a properly prepared base. This includes a compacted MOT Type 1 sub-base followed by a full bed of external-grade porcelain adhesive. The adhesive must support the entire slab to avoid air pockets that could cause cracking. A well-constructed base ensures structural stability, efficient drainage, and helps maintain level alignment, especially important for porcelain due to its precise, rectified edges.

Absolutely. Porcelain paving is non-porous, so it won’t absorb water — which is the main cause of frost damage in outdoor surfaces. These Kandla Grey Porcelain Paving Slabs 900 X 600 are built to withstand extreme temperature changes without expanding, cracking, or delaminating. Their resilience makes them especially suitable for gardens in colder regions of the UK, where frequent freezing and thawing cycles can destroy less robust paving materials.
