When the sun beats down and the thermometer rises, keeping your home cool is top of mind. Ceramic does far more than dress your floors and walls: it actively helps regulate indoor temperatures, softening the heat of summer and the chill of winter.
Thermal inertia: the key to steady comfort
TAU ceramic stands out for its high density and heat‑storing capacity. That means when sunlight hits a ceramic floor or wall, the material soaks up heat slowly—rather than triggering a rapid spike in indoor temperature. Over the course of the day, you’ll notice a stable environment: the ceramic acts like a thermal battery, storing energy and releasing it gradually, avoiding uncomfortable peaks. As evening falls and the outside air cools, that stored warmth returns gently to the room, prolonging that cozy feeling.
Light finishes and luminous reflectivity
Tile color and gloss are more than styling choices: they directly affect how much heat your home absorbs. TAU collections offer light‑tone options and bright-glazed finishes that reflect a large portion of solar radiation.
On terraces, façades, and roofs, these finishes act as shields, deflecting heat back outside and reducing thermal gain. The result is an interior that stays surprisingly cool even when the sun’s at its peak.
Ceramic radiant floors: all‑season even comfort
For winter warmth without annoying drafts, ceramic radiant flooring is your best friend. Picture a layer of TAU tiles distributing heat evenly from the ground up, filling every corner of the room without cold spots. Because ceramic responds more slowly than traditional radiators, it maintains comfort even after the boiler switches off—storing heat and releasing it bit by bit. And since it operates at lower temperatures, it delivers significant energy savings.
Ventilated façades: cooling air before it enters
In ventilated‑façade projects, TAU ceramic becomes your first line of defense against outside heat. The system creates an air cavity between the tile and the structural wall: as the ceramic layer heats up, the air inside convects upward, expelling heat before it can reach the interior wall. This minimizes thermal transmission and keeps indoor conditions more stable year‑round.
Design and sustainability, hand in hand
At TAU, we believe true innovation marries form and function without sacrificing environmental responsibility. Our manufacturing processes optimize energy use and reduce emissions, while our wide range of formats, textures, and colors lets you integrate thermal solutions seamlessly into any design.
In short, our collections don’t just beautify your home—they work for you, delivering thermal inertia underfoot, reflectivity on surfaces, and active ventilation on façades. The result: a balanced, comfortable space tailored to every season.
