There are two key factors to bear in mind when giving your patio or terrace a facelift: its technical requirements and the type of look you want it to have. As a result, the material you use must ensure:
For areas with swimming pools or irrigation systems where water is always present, it is important to use tiles with a very low porosity, such as porcelain ones, thus ensuring a long-lasting product that can also withstand the sun, rain or changes in temperature.
A non-slip surface is also essential in outdoor areas. Keraben Grupo has launched an Antislip Shoeless finish with a smooth texture, completely unlike conventional rough anti-slip finishes. Because it looks just like the Natural finish, it can be used to ensure visual continuity from indoor to outdoor areas.
Since terraces and patios are used on a seasonal basis, mainly for enjoyment and relaxation, they should be low on maintenance and easy to clean.
They must also have a design that never looks dated, and so they should be modern in style but never too flashy, based on materials inspired by nature like wood, stone or cement-effect tiles.
Rooftop terraces, covered garden terraces, a small patio or inner courtyard are the perfect places to relax and while away your time.
