Thickness: 8 mm
Choice of Dekton thicknesses: 8 mm / 12 mm / 20 mm
Private Areas/Pedestrian Use: In general, in private areas exclusively for pedestrian use, we can choose the thickness and design of the form freely and without restrictions.
Public spaces mainly for pedestrians: For public spaces that are mainly for pedestrian access or that allow occasional vehicles, the thicknesses of 12 mm and 20 mm are ideal, and may be free in the format. For 8 mm, we recommend the use of square formats, since it improves performance in the event of possible unevenness of the substrate.
Spaces with vehicular traffic: For spaces with vehicle traffic, even taking into account the calculation of loads required, our ideal thickness is 20 mm.

Joints
The placement joints are an essential element for the quality, durability and good performance of the flooring.
It is recommended that you have a joint of 2 mm in interiors and 3 mm for exteriors, and always respect the structural joints, expansion or movement of the building.
The stability of the supports, the environmental conditions, the requirements for use and the properties of the selected grouts and sealing materials will be of great importance for the design of the joint.
Finishes
Dekton is prepared to respond to all the irregular points of a floor.
Skirting:
Dekton can be manufactured in strips to create a skirting board that gives continuity to the surface, respecting the aesthetics of the floor and also providing the same technical characteristics and maintenance to this piece.
Exterior corners:
The corners must be designed taking into account the mechanical stresses to which they will be exposed. In general, it is advisable to round or reinforce the edge.

Installation
In order for Dekton to perform well, it is necessary for the material to be installed appropriately, following the steps found in our Large Format Facing Manual.
Having the right support, choosing the necessary adhesive according to the application, respecting the joints and correct placement and installation of the pieces are the key points for the material to shine indefinitely.
Maintenance
Dekton is an ideal material for flooring due to the low maintenance required. After performing the final cleaning, which is necessary to eliminate waste from the installation and which requires specific products, daily maintenance can easily be carried out whether dry or wet. If you have any questions, please consult the Dekton Cleaning and Maintenance Manual for flooring. For our Grip+ treatment we have developed a specific cleaning and maintenance manual.
Safety
It is necessary to know the necessary safety rules in case of handling and preparation of the product, for which we recommend downloading the fact sheets and the manual.
