Why Proper Installation Matters in High-End Projects
Whether you’re designing luxury villas in Dubai or commercial spaces in Riyadh, installing porcelain tile the right way is just as important as selecting the right collection. Poor laying techniques can compromise even the most high-performance products, while precise installation enhances durability, safety, and aesthetics.
At Caesar Ceramiche, we combine technical expertise with Italian-made quality to support developers, designers, and contractors at every stage—from material choice to certified installation.

Expert Tips for Installing Porcelain Tile
1. Evaluate the Substrate Carefully
Before you begin laying tiles, ensure that the substrate is clean, dry, flat, and structurally sound. Use a primer if necessary to improve adhesion.
2. Choose the Right Adhesive
Not all adhesives are created equal. For Caesar’s large formats or 20mm outdoor collections, use deformable cement-based adhesives compliant with EN 12004 standards (C2 TE S1 or higher).
3. Follow Joint and Expansion Recommendations
Always leave expansion joints, especially in outdoor or heated-floor applications. Caesar recommends a minimum joint width of 2–5 mm, depending on the tile format and location.
4. Use Certified Installation Tools and Spacers
For high-precision laying of large slabs like those in the Join or Key_Mood collections, leveling systems and mechanical lifting tools ensure safety and precision.
Special Focus: Caesar’s Formats and Finishes
Caesar offers a wide range of formats—from traditional sizes to large slabs (up to 120x278 cm)—each requiring specific laying techniques. Our surfaces also include a variety of finishes:
- Textured (R11): Ideal for outdoor or wet areas
- Matte or Natural Finish: For contemporary interiors
- Polished: For luxury commercial spaces
Installation needs vary based on slip resistance, traffic, and design intention. For example, our Aextra20 system is ideal for dry-laid solutions on grass, gravel, or pedestals in outdoor settings.
Certifications That Guarantee Technical Reliability
All Caesar porcelain products are manufactured in compliance with ISO 13006 and EN 14411 standards. Caesar also provides DOP (Declaration of Performance) documents and test results on:
- Flexural strength
- Water absorption
- Slip resistance (R ratings)
- Frost resistance
This data is essential for architects and project managers working in environments with extreme heat, humidity, or mechanical stress—such as the Middle East.
