Roben AG has partnered exclusively with AutoStone to produce the best clinkershop floor system. This clinker tile is 15 mm (approx. 5/8”) thick. Clinkershop by Roben is a denser, stronger, and more durable workshop platform product. Clinkershop by Roben also comes with AutoStone brightfinish ultra-cleaning technology. The performance delivered is unequaled by other clinker tile manufacturers.
Clinkershop is our 12 mm thick surface. It is slightly thinner than our
15 mm clinker tile, but still delivers the strength, durability and performance of a clinker tile. Conventional clinker installation methods recommend the vibration method; which is an antiquated method, requires a revised construction schedule, can be expensive, has a very limited labor pool, and fewer vendors to support future moves-adds-changes. With this thinner profile, you get the best of both worlds; a clinker tile plus thousands of qualified tile contractors who can install with thinset technologies.
