Comparing Modified Clay Materials with Traditional Building Materials

Comparing Modified Clay Materials with Traditional Building Materials

In recent years, modified clay materials or flexible clay tiles have come into view with their flexible safety and low-carbon energy-saving features, being hailed as one of the new building materials with the most market potential. In exterior wall projects, its lightweight, fire-resistant, alkali-free, and aging-resistant advantages have also been widely praised. So how do flexible clay tiles compare with traditional building materials?

1.Flexible clay tiles for exterior walls allow “flexibility” to become a new expression for wall materials. The elasticity and flexibility of soft ceramics change the hard, heavy, and brittle texture of traditional materials. The flexible texture allows soft ceramics to present more unique design patterns and effects.

2.Flexible clay tiles are lightweight and thin, reducing transportation and storage costs compared to traditional materials. The self-weight of soft ceramics is only 3-4 kg/m², which is 1/20th of natural stone, 1/10th of integrated panels, and 1/6th of ceramic tiles.

3.Flexible clay tiles are produced in a single molding process, greatly shortening the production time compared to traditional building materials, accelerating the production cycle. Additionally, their installation is simpler than exterior wall coatings, reducing labor costs.

4.From production to application, flexible clay tiles save 80% energy and reduce emissions compared to traditional decorative materials. They are also recyclable and environmentally friendly. When used for interior decoration, they do not produce formaldehyde or special odors, making them not only aesthetically pleasing but also reassuring.

5.Through special processes, flexible clay tiles can imitate the appearance of stone, wood, leather, and other products with realistic and natural effects that do not discolor, outperforming traditional building materials in appearance and texture.
