Features

  • Material: handcrafted clay tiles, cut and shaped individually before glazing and firing.
  • Variations: color shade differences, small surface irregularities, minor chips, and texture changes are normal and expected.
  • Format & Edges: rectangular handmade tiles with uneven, non-rectified edges.
  • Thickness: typically 15–20 mm, with natural variation between pieces.
  • Dimensional Tolerance: size differences of ±2–4 mm are common; installation requires adjusted joints.
  • Use: suitable for interior walls, showers, kitchen areas, fireplaces, and light residential flooring.
  • Surface Texture: denser and thicker than Zellige, giving better resistance to pressure and impact.
  • Outdoor Use: not recommended in freeze-thaw climates without professional evaluation.
  • Heat & Moisture: resistant to normal household heat and humidity when installed on a compliant substrate.
  • Artisanal Character: each Bejmat tile has unique shades, textures, and imperfections inherent to Moroccan craftsmanship.

Installation

  • Adhesive: use a high-quality C2TE or C2S1 flexible adhesive; back-buttering is recommended due to tile thickness.
  • Substrate: ensure a flat, solid, and dry substrate; leveling may be required because Bejmat varies in thickness.
  • Setting: press tiles firmly to align height differences; a rubber mallet helps achieve an even surface on floors.
  • Joints: joints of 3–6 mm are recommended to absorb dimensional variations.
  • Grout: use flexible fine cement grout; epoxy grout may be used in wet areas.
  • Cutting: cut from the back with a wet saw or fine diamond blade; expect small edge chipping due to the dense clay body.
  • Blending: mix tiles from multiple boxes before installation to balance natural shade variation.
  • Sealing (floors only): seal unglazed or matte Bejmat if installed on floors to protect against stains; glazed tiles usually do not require sealing.
  • Cleaning: use pH-neutral cleaners; avoid acids, abrasive tools, or descaling products.
  • Maintenance: regular mild cleaning is sufficient; regrouting or replacing individual tiles is possible if needed.
  • Wet Areas: ensure proper waterproofing in showers and bathrooms before installation.
  • Safety: clay-based product with zero VOC emissions, suitable for indoor living spaces.
