As porcelain is a virtually non porous material they are ideally suited to use on a wall as they keep water ingress to a minimum. The non porous nature of porcelain also help prevent against staining meaning the coping will keep its original colour and be low maintenance throughout its lifetime. Our porcelain copes are fully tested for frost resistance, water absorption, chemical resistance and stain resistance. Drip Checks are engineered into both side of the coping stones 20mm from the edge. These drip checks prevent water running under the coping stone and onto the face of the wall.
Important Notes
As the rounded edge of the coping is created by hand after the porcelain has been manufactured there may be a slight curing line on one side of the cope . Please take this into consideration when installing so they match as well as possible. Porcelain coping stones must be installed with an SBR bond bridge when laying in mortar. Please see laying guide for more information. Porcelain coping stones are suitable for use with our coping stone adhesive as well as traditional mortar. Pointing can be completed with mortar.
