Frequently asked questions about BetonPrint

Are the colours the same as on a normal print?

No. We print with ceramic inks: they withstand sunlight far better, but have a smaller colour gamut, especially in red and pink. That is why you always get a digital proof before we produce.

How do you clean the tiles?

With a pressure washer or a chemical cleaning agent. The print is fired onto the tile and sealed with a three-layer protective coating, so walking on it and dragging chairs will not wear it away.

Can I supply my own design?

Yes, as JPG or PDF. We make every design print-ready and take the joints between the tiles into account.

Can the tiles be recycled?

Yes, completely: as filler in new concrete tiles or as ground improvement under roads.
