Faq's

Will these tiles break easily?
No. They are as sturdy and strong as marble or granite tiles
 
What is the colouring agent and will the colour fade over time?
The colours are obtained from metallic oxides fired to a high temperature and are extremely durable. The colours are permanent and will not fade due to exposure to sun, rain etc.
 
Can these tiles be used in external areas?
Yes. They are similar to other factory made ceramic tiles and can be used exposed to the elements either on walls, floors, furniture etc.
 
How does one fix these tiles on floors and furniture items?
They can be cemented on floors and walls as one does with normal commercial tiles. For use on wooden or iron items they can be fixed using any good adhesive such as 'Araldite'.
 
Can ADIPA Tiles be used with other commercial tiles?
Yes they can and very effectively too. Basically they are meant to enhance the effect obtained from using other commercial tiles.
 
Why do the tiles have variations in colour, texture and size?
These are totally handmade tiles, fired in a conventional potters kiln. Hence there will always be slight variations. In fact this is what makes them unique and beautiful.
 
Can you make tiles of a specific design provided by us?

Can you provide assistance in designing and using your tiles on walls, bathrooms, furniture etc?
This is possible and has been done by us regularly. We would need to be provided colour photographs and sizes etc. of the area required to be clad.
 
    NAMEBOARDS

Can the nameboards be fixed outdoors in the open?
If the namboard is exposed to rain the wooden frame can be affected over time. In such cases it is advisable to either cement the tiles directly on to the wall or use a metallic base plate for the tiles. The tiles themselves will not suffer any damage from the elements..
 
What does one do if the sizes shown here are not adequate for the name?
In case larger sizes of boards are required they can be specially made on order. All one has to do is give us the basic information regarding the number of letters and tiles required to be used.
 
How can I send a nameboard to someone else staying at a different location?
All one has to do is to design the nameboard and send us the DD and we will dispatch it to the address provided by you.
