How are tiles made?
The raw materials are precisely mixed to ensure consistency, extruded through a high pressure section onto shaped aluminium molds, which are then stamped with nail holes. The tiles are cured in a rotary curing chamber with a carefully monitored combination of heat and humidity. The tiles are then removed from the shaped molds which are then returned to the production line. The tiles are then packaged and stacked onto pallets. The tiles remain in the yard for 28 days prior to shipping to allow the concrete to cure to 98% of their full strength. (It will take 30 years for the tiles to reach 100% hardness). Gambale’s production system is highly automated with people overseeing the quality of the tiles through each stage of production.
