All you need to do is multiply the weight by the thickness of the tile to get the square metre weight: Ceramic 1. In addition to the tile weight for wall tiling, you also need to allow the maximum possible weight of the adhesive to account for water content when applied, and possible moisture intake in the future.
You should be able to find an order weight on you suppliers despatch note, but if in doubt, speak to the tile suppliers for the exact sqm weight. Hope this helps. If anything is missing that might be slightly out of the ordinary, please let me know. Sort by date Sort by votes. It's a good post to have for reference. I've learnt a lot myself this week about tile weights, it seems a lot of people aren't aware, including people selling tiles and especially builders and other accompanying trades.

How many tiles come in a box? How many tiles are in a box? There are anywhere from 6 to 48 per box with 20 to 50 boxes per pallet. Most often, you'll find 6 to 12 per box or case for tiles bigger than a square foot.
Smaller types, like subway and glass, can have as many as 48 per box. How much does a pallet of floor tile weigh? Pallet weight is 1, lb. How many square feet is a 3x6 tile?

Weight porcelain, as a rule, depends on the raw materials from which it is made. Quartz sand is necessary, at the same time, with an increased content of iron oxide. And it is this ingredient in the composition of raw materials that distinguishes ordinary ceramic tiles from ceramic granite tiles. It is sand with a high content of iron oxide and gives the ceramic granite an increased density and wear resistance. An important factor in the production of ceramic granite is the clay fraction of kaolin.
The smaller the powder of kaolin, the denser and better the quality of the ceramic granite tile. In appearance, ceramic granite has the form of a cut of natural stone or rather, a cut of granite, but has a more dense and homogeneous structure, since in a natural stone there are cracks, bubbles or other flaws that can lead to the destruction of the slab during operation. Ceramic granite tiles have no such flaws. Porcelain tiles are most often not covered with glaze, as they should not be sliding and frost-resistant.
Magnificent texture of the tile is attached to the addition of raw materials, mica and mineral pigment during the manufacturing process. Then the raw material is subjected to high pressure press, much more than when pressing raw materials in the production of ordinary ceramic tiles. At the same time, the thickness of the ceramic granite tile reaches about 8 to 15 mm. Then comes the time of roasting. In the production of porcelain stoneware, the time and temperature of firing also differs from the technology of burning ceramic tiles.
And the firing time is about 40 to minutes. What is good is porcelain stoneware, because it is more expensive than ceramic tiles. Its main difference is high density, wear resistance, frost resistance and not radioactivity. After all, any natural stone, especially granite, is a source of radioactivity. Ceramic granite can be used in the form of an imitation stone inside the room. The moisture absorption coefficient of ceramic granite is extremely small. The reason is high density.
This coefficient is 0. Where to use ceramics. This - all the internal premises - floors, walls, decoration. Excellent ceramic plates are used on the street, as the flooring is the decoration of balconies, loggias, terraces, porches, steps - after all, the ceramics are not slippery and frost-resistant. Plates look great like, finishing the socle or facades of buildings.
