History

In ancient times, ceramic tiles mounted on the building testified to the prestige and wealth owners. Made of high quality products have been marked by exceptional durability counted in tens and even hundreds of years. Just look at the roofs of the medieval Gothic cathedrals, to find out about their timelessness. In the contemporary classical building roof tiles are still enjoying great popularity, though the competition comes to them, even in the form of cheaper and slightly lighter concrete counterparts. Traditional roofing continues to dominate in terms of aesthetics and durability. The shingles can not match either corrugated metal or any kind of tar mats, the permanence rarely exceed 30 years. Meanwhile, even less resistant to weathering concrete tiles should cause no problems for a period twice as long. At most, from time to time has to be washed with water under high pressure and cover the fresh layer of acrylic paint, resistant to ultraviolet rays. Building a house for future generations so we put on the classic and proven solutions. With him came the heirs will not have to start from an pomieszkiwania costly major repairs throughout the property.

Panels

On the Polish construction increasingly appear sandwich panels, which are successfully used to climb walls, but most of all roof surfaces for mating. The material that wandered into our country from Great Britain, commonly called a "sandwich panel" and is characterized by extremely low weight, while maintaining adequate stiffness and thermal insulation properties. Advantages of the sandwich panels are characteristic in their construction. They consist generally of two rigid sheets of stainless steel (also protected against UV radiation), separated by a polystyrene or polyurethane filler. Such a construction is durable and lightweight, which is of great importance in the design of roofs for large objects - production halls and warehouses, sports and entertainment halls, shelters, street, railway stations etc. Roofing with sandwich panels are used successfully also in housing and a flats. In this case, investors pay particular attention to their two advantages - relatively low price and simplicity of installation, which does not require professional employment, and thus expensive roofing staff.

Ceramic tile

Ceramic tile is a permanent design element of most bathrooms and kitchens. Few people realize how and why the components are manufactured in multicolored tiles. Meanwhile, it is very complicated and often time-consuming process. Glaze thickness from a few to several millimeters are produced using clay, talc, sand, and mineral additives, which ennobled the shell and also give it the proper pigment. Ingredients combined with small amounts of water are subjected to processes of pressing, or vice versa - drawing. So get ready for the oven heated to a temperature of 1,000 degrees Celsius, even where they are burned for 30 hours. At the end plates are painted and decorated. Interestingly, despite the technological process of production of ceramic tiles is similar to that of just a few hundred years. Similarly, the plates were produced during the Middle Ages, and possibly even earlier. The durability of this material is best evidenced by the number of sites in which the walls and floors to this day preserved original ceramics. Unlike today produced the plates were decorated with centuries before hand, making it difficult to find two identical.
