Description

🧱 Product Overview

BCL 361 HT belongs to BCL’s Heavy Traffic (HT) series, which includes models like 360, 361, 362, and 363—designed for spaces that endure substantial footfall and mechanical wear


🔧 Material & Manufacture

  • Composition: Bot likely made from vitrified or porcelain-grade ceramic, featuring dense body and glazed—or possibly full-body—porcelain construction akin to BIA-GL and BIA-UGL European standards

  • Production Specs: Manufactured under:

    • Hydraulic pressing at pressures often exceeding 500 kg/cm²

    • High-temperature firing above 1,200 °C

    • Result: Low water absorption (< 0.5%), enhanced mechanical strength (MoR ≥ 40–50 N/mm²), and deep abrasion resistance—critical for high-trafficked environments


💪 Performance & Durability

  • Wear & Abrasion: Ideal for heavy foot traffic zones, carts, and wheeled loads—aligned with BIA‑UGL classification for deep abrasion resistance

  • Water Resistance: Extremely low porosity (< 0.5%) makes it suitable for interior spaces prone to spills.

  • Chemical Resilience: Withstand acids, bases, and sanitation agents, making it appropriate for hospitals, labs, or food-handling areas .

  • Slip Resistance: Often supplied with anti-slip textures or suitable finishes, crucial for hygiene and safety in wet/multi-use zones .


📐 Dimensions, Format & Aesthetics

  • Size Options: Commonly available in 30 × 30 cm, with potential larger options like 40 × 40 cm or 60 × 60 cm—verify with BCL’s catalog

  • Color & Finish: Utilitarian, neutral hues such as light grays, taupes, and beiges. Finish balances durability: not too glossy to conceal scuff, likely textured for grip.

  • Edge Profile: Probably rectified for tight grout joints and a clean industrial appearance.


🏢 Ideal Usage Scenarios

  • Retail & Commercial Spaces: Retail malls, showrooms, and arcades cater to high footfall and trolley usage.

  • Healthcare & Labs: Chemical- and sanitation-resilient, ideal for hospitals, clinics, and labs.

  • Educational/Institutional Buildings: Durable under continuous daily traffic from large populations.

  • Industrial Zones: Capable of withstanding mechanical loads and cleaning routines.

  • Public Facilities: Airports, train stations, large lobbies—any space requiring durability with a refined finish


🛠 Installation & Maintenance Guidelines

  • Adhesive Protocol: Recommended two-layer adhesive method for even bonding—especially for larger tiles or high-load environments

  • Preparation & Joints: Surface debris removal, potential soaking is standard, and use of expansion joints every ~4–5 m indoors to account for thermal movement .

  • Cleaning Routine: Sweep and wet mop with neutral detergents. Resistant to industrial cleaning agents. Glossy or glazed finishes may show wear quicker—textured surfaces reduce visibility of scuffs.
