Industrial basalt tiles

Industrial cast stone tiles stand out for their high technical characteristics, remaining intact even with regular contact with aggressive chemicals and abrasive substances. Basalt tiles possess a set of unique properties, making them widely used in creating industrial floors, as well as in protective lining (facing) of various pipes and tanks operated under extreme conditions.

The manufacturing process of cast stone tiles involves melting rock at a temperature of 1300 degrees Celsius, followed by pouring molten basalt into metal molds of a specific design. The process is completed by solidification, after which the tile undergoes a firing procedure. Tiles produced in this way have several excellent qualities:

  • High specific density of the material (3 kg/cm³);
  • Compressive strength (up to 3.5 tons per cm²);
  • Hermeticity;
  • Unique design of each product unit;
  • Resistance to aggressive chemicals and abrasive wear;
  • Environmental safety;
  • Wear resistance;
  • Frost resistance.

In addition, this building material is used for lining pipes, bunkers, tanks, and other containers for storing and transporting substances that actively react with the environment or contain a large number of abrasives. Cast stone tiles of this kind can be used in the following conditions:

  • At metallurgical and engineering plants where large equipment, items, as well as tracked and other heavy machinery are moved;
  • At chemical industry enterprises for the arrangement of production facilities and storage of aggressive liquids;
  • In mines and mining enterprises for protecting pipelines and floors;
  • At automotive testing grounds for testing the latest models of cars and tires, where the tiles serve as road surfaces with varying degrees of roughness, ideally suited for evaluating equipment;
  • At warehouse facilities where heavy loads or chemically active substances are stored;
  • In places with heavy foot traffic (railway stations, airports, shopping and entertainment centers, residential complexes).

Часто задаваемые вопросы

What are industrial basalt tiles?

Cast stone tiles for protecting industrial floors and equipment surfaces from abrasive and chemical action. They have high hardness and wear resistance.

Where are basalt tiles used?

On industrial floors of warehouses and workshops, in bins and troughs, on areas with intensive movement of abrasive materials and aggressive media.

Why are basalt tiles better than porcelain stoneware?

Under abrasive and impact loads cast stone lasts longer than ordinary ceramics and porcelain stoneware, and resists acids and alkalis.

What size are industrial basalt tiles?

Available in several sizes and thicknesses. The format is selected by area and load character.

How are basalt tiles laid?

On a special epoxy compound over a prepared base with acid-resistant joint grouting. Installation is done turnkey.
