Gazzini Platform | Italian Porcelain Tile
Platform is a metallic look that was inspired by aged metal plates. The graphic includes oxidation marks and calcium deposits that would appear on metal cladding over time as it was exposed to the elements. The surface has some texture, with matte areas enhanced by puddles of sheen. The really eye-catching feature of this line is the rich color palette. Each color has a mixture of hues, including both cool and warm tones, that combine to create a final look that is appealing and accessible while also being modern.

Installation Information
It is important to blend tile within each carton and from multiple cartons during installation, as well as changing the orientation of pieces with similar graphics to attain a proper mix.
Most Italian manufacturers recommend a maximum offset of 8” (20 cm) on all large format tiles when setting a running bond. Please refer to ANSI requirements for setting large format tiles, ANSI A 108.2 section 4.3.8. Using a leveling system can improve the installation of this product.
Non-Stock
As noted in the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) the coefficient of friction varies considerably due to facts not under the control of entities such as the manufacturers and distributors. These factors include, but are not limited to, contaminants, slope of terrain, drainage conditions, adjacent surfaces, etc. Suitability for any installation can only be determined by a site examination of all conditions that could affect the slip resistance of the tile being installed. Continual cleaning and maintenance must be performed once the tile has been installed.
