Ceramitex® Features & Benefits
Our solutions combine sleek design, precision engineering, and industry-leading service.
Code Compliant
The Ceramitex® System is an architectural ceramic product that has been proven to meet or exceed industry code standards throughout North America.
Climate Defiant
The Ceramitex® System is resistant to expansion and contraction in high temperature or freezing conditions, making it "Climate Defiant.
Lightweight
Sintered ceramic panels with a thickness of 6mm are approximately 3.8lbs per square foot, making them lightweight.
Large Format
Large format sintered ceramic panels open a world of design possibilities. They are offered in a range of colors and textures.
Impact Resistant
Ceramitex® panels are strong, lightweight, and highly resilient against high traffic abrasion, making them impact resistant.
Mitered Corners
The Ceramitex® System offers the unique ability to create large mitered returns. This feature provides a striking dimensional appearance to any returning edge of the facade.
Waterproof
Waterproof panels combined with a patented pressure-equalized rainscreen system provide the ultimate weather barrier.
Graffiti-Proof
Ceramitex® sintered ceramic panels are easy to maintain and impervious to chemicals, making them graffiti-proof.
UV Resistant
Since the color is 100% natural, it does not deteriorate due to exposure to the sun or extreme temperatures.
Scratch Resistant
Panels are resistant to scratching and abrasion due to the hardness of the surface.
