Exploded view, not to scale

1
SUPERION™ Ceramic Shield
A ceramic shield coating on the face makes the surface stronger and helps it last longer. Textured for an R11 slip rating.
2
ColorInfuse™ body
Color runs through the full body, so a chipped edge or a cut shows the same color, never a white base.
3
High-density porcelain
2.30 g/cm³ bulk density and 0.17% water absorption, with a Mohs 7 surface.
4
20 mm thick
Carries foot traffic dry-laid on grass, sand, gravel or pedestals. Bonded to a slab, it takes vehicles.

Surface protection

SUPERION™ Ceramic Shield

A ceramic shield coating on the face of every paver makes the surface stronger and helps it last longer outdoors.

Surface hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale
0.17% water absorption, so very little water soaks in
Class AA resistance to household cleaners, pool salts, acids and alkalis
Easy upkeep: rinse with water and scrub with a stiff brush

Through-body color

ColorInfuse™ Technology

Color is infused through the body of the paver, not just printed on top. It is what makes these the best solution for pavers: if an edge ever chips, you see the same color underneath, not a white base.
