Techlam is a large format porcelain tile that is more environmentally friendly than standard porcelain tile. It has lower VOC emissions, uses less energy to produce, and can reduce CO2 emissions by up to 69% per square foot shipped compared to standard porcelain tile. Techlam also provides savings through easier installation, less maintenance and repairs needed, and lower freight costs due to its lighter weight. Proper cleaning of Techlam uses water, common detergents, or other mild cleaners depending on the stain.
2. 100% natural product - Greenguard Certified Product Techlam does not release any VOC’s It can be milled and recycled in other production processes Less energy use per square foot during production Cleans easily with pure water or green cleaning products Reduce CO2 emissions up to 69% per landed square foot over conventional porcelain tile with more sq ft per truckload Page 04/11/10 TECHLAM BY LEVANTINA Think TECHLAM® - Think Green

Example: 500 mile Truck Shipment Truckload = 45,000 lbs Grams of CO2 emitted per Truckload Per Mile Truck: 759.61 grams per mile (Source: Global Average Basis: Greenhouse Gas Protocol‘Distance Based methodology for calculating CO2 emissions' of 472 grams per KM/759.61 grams per mile) Square Footage Per Truckload Shipment Standard porcelain tile shipment 10,800 square feet @ 4 lbs sq ft Techlam 3, 3+ shipment 35,000 square feet @ 1.15 lbs sq ft CO2 Emissions per landed Square foot calculation 500 mile shipment creates 379805 grams of CO2 Standard porcelain tile: 379805 grams /10,800 SF = 35.17 grams per Landed SF Techlam 3, 3+ shipment: 379805 grams /35000 SF = 10.85 grams per Landed SF 69.15% Reduction in CO2 Per Landed Square Foot when using Techlam 3, 3+ Format over conventional Porcelain Tile Page 04/11/10 TECHLAM BY LEVANTINA Think TECHLAM® - Think CO2 Reduction per Landed Square Footage
4. TECHLAM® FUNCTIONAL BENEFITS = $AVINGS Large format provides faster and easier installation = Less Labor Graffiti resistant surface near 0 absorption = Less Maintenance Scratch and abrasion resistant 8 on MOHS scale = Less Repairs No UV radiation or climatic impact = Less Replacement 71% reduction in shipping weight per square foot when compared to standard porcelain tile = Less Freight Standard porcelain tile average lbs square foot – 4.00 lbs Techlam porcelain tile average lbs square foot - 1.15 lbs Reduction of 2.85 lbs per square foot (71 %) Results: Less (Labor+Maintenance+Repairs+Replacement+Freight) = More $avings.
