Ceramic lattices

Ceramic lattices are emblematic pieces in the world of architecture. Seeing without being seen, filtering light and allowing air to penetrate the space are the functions most appreciated by designers when using this ceramic product that can be custom-made.

When choosing the design lattices for your project, you must choose the optimal ceramic lattice material for the use and place where you are going to place them. Here you have the necessary information to be able to choose the right material when buying lattices online.

You can place both indoors and outdoors, so how do you decide?

Terracotta lattices have always been used as architectural decoration. They are characterized by their fine finish, their natural appearance and their use on exterior and interior walls.

They have a water absorption between 10 – 14% and expel water at the same speed as they absorb it. Our independent tests certify that our terracotta lattices resist frost and no defects are observed.

Stoneware lattices are characterized by their hardness and low water absorption, between 2,5 and 6%. To achieve this, they are fired at high temperatures (1240ºC-1300ºC). Our stoneware lattices resist frost and also thermal shock according to our independent tests.

Characteristics that make them elements to take into account in areas exposed to very low temperatures or with sudden changes in temperature.

As for the finish, depending on the model you will find them with a texture as fine as terracotta, difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, or with a more rough and artisanal feel.

Do you have any doubts? Tell us about the use, the place, the climate, the orientation... and we will guide you to buy ceramic lattices online of the appropriate material.

If the ceramic lattice that you are wearing on your head is not among the decorative latticework in this section, you just have to ask us and we will give you a solution within 24 hours.

Design your own custom ceramic lattice

Custom terracotta lattices: You will see that there is a product called CLS 000 (Design your lattice) where you can choose the format, the color of our palette and the final finish exactly as you need it.
Custom stoneware lattices: You will see that there is a product called CLG 000 (Design your lattice) where you can customize format, color of both glaze and base, gloss or matte finish and the limit format is a prism 170 cm deep, 30 cm high and 50 cm wide… it is a spectacular dimension!!!

Within 48 hours we will give you the price of its development and advice for its optimal manufacturing.

In short, you no longer have an excuse to at least consider the use of terracotta ceramic lattices or stoneware ceramic lattices in your project, so go ahead and search our catalog for the most modern lattices or create your own.

Installation of lattices
Here we leave you a series of articles from our blog about lattices and their placement:
· Example placement project
· Things you should never forget when placing lattices
· Ceramic grids project examples
· A lattice with an endless story
· Keys to designing a lattice
Remember that the lattices are made by extrusion and in a plastic state, so they are not perfect. It is the joint that assumes these irregularities or, failing that, it is necessary to assume small inequalities between the sides of the pieces.

Slight variations in shape and color
AT A FORMAL LEVEL, ceramic lattices are made by extrusion and in a plastic state, so they are not perfect. Small inequalities between the sides of the pieces must be assumed. It is a semi-artisanal product and there are certain differences between pieces.
Regarding COLOR, whether it is natural or enamelled finishes, we must assume small variations in tones between the pieces and between different “batches”. The lattices are made with clay and fired at a high temperature, so there are certain variations in tone that depend on the soils, the firing and the glazes... We recommend that you add an extra 5% of pieces to your order to ensure that before Any unforeseen event you will have pieces from the same “batch”.

Terracotta or stoneware lattices? How to choose the right ceramic material?
All our lattices are suitable for INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR.
The terracotta lattice has a water absorption between 10-14%. Our terracotta lattices resist frost according to technical tests carried out and work in outdoor spaces. With the same speed that they absorb moisture from the environment, they return it to it.
The stoneware lattice has an absorption between 2,5-4.5%, as it has a very low water absorption, it shows a high resistance to frost and a very high hardness compared to the rest of the lattices.
So everything will depend on where you are going to place them, if it is a terrace or a facade, if there are sudden changes in temperature, very low temperatures and very humid environments, northern Europe... but it all depends on the use.
