What is ISO 10545-6 - unglazed ceramic tiles - abrasion resistance about?

Ceramic is a durable material that provides strength as well as longevity to tiles. ISO 10545-6 is the sixth part of the ISO 10545 multi-series International Standard on ‘ceramic tiles'.

ISO 10545-6 specifies a test method for determining the resistance to deep abrasion of all unglazed ceramic tiles used for floor coverings.

Who is ISO 10545-6 - unglazed ceramic tiles - abrasion resistance for?

ISO 10545-6 on ‘unglazed ceramic tiles - abrasion resistance’ is useful for:

  • The ceramic tiles industry
  • Manufacturers and suppliers of ceramic tiles
  • Manufacturers of wall and floor tiles
  • Product designers / innovation teams
  • Building / construction engineers
  • The construction industry
  • Builders / real estate developers / architects
  • Flooring companies

Why should you use ISO 10545-6 - unglazed ceramic tiles - abrasion resistance?

The hard surface of ceramic tiles makes them impenetrable, which means they are resistant to water and moisture, due to which ceramic tiles are less prone to germs and mould.

ISO 10545-6 provides guidance on apparatus, test specimens, procedure, and expression of results of ceramic products.

Determination of the abrasion resistance of unglazed tiles is done by measuring the length of the groove produced on the surface by means of the procedure described in ISO 10545-6.

ISO 10545-6 helps you to determine the durability of ceramic tiles as per the need of the specified application. You will also be able to enhance product development processes for your business using ISO 10545-6 guidelines.
