Argelith Ceramic Tiles – The Ultimate Slip-Resistant Floor for Meat and Poultry Processing For more than 150 years, Argelith Ceramic Tiles has been manufacturing fully vitrified industrial flooring that stands up to the toughest production environments. From heavy vehicle traffic to aggressive cleaning chemicals and temperature swings, Argelith tiles are built to endure where others fail. At IPPE 2025, Argelith introduces its latest innovation for the meat and poultry industry — the R13 High-Traction Surface, developed specifically for areas exposed to constant water, animal fats, and cleaning detergents. Maximum Slip Resistance – Minimum Risk Worker safety begins from the ground up. The R13 surface represents the highest level of slip resistance, exceeding the traction levels typically found in food-processing environments. Even when floors are wet or greasy, the aggressive micro-texture provides sure footing, helping processors reduce the risk of slips and falls — one of the most common causes of workplace injuries. Unlike coatings or surface treatments that wear down over time, Argelith’s R13 slip-resistant layer is fused into the tile body during firing at over 2,200°F, becoming a permanent part of the ceramic structure. The result is a floor that maintains its safety performance for decades, not months. Hygiene Meets Durability In meat and poultry plants, sanitation is as critical as safety. Argelith tiles combine exceptional slip resistance with a dense, non-porous body that resists absorption of liquids, blood, grease, and cleaning agents. The vitrified surface prevents bacterial penetration and allows thorough cleaning using high-pressure or chemical washdowns without damaging the tile or reducing its traction. The R13 surface achieves the perfect balance — aggressive enough to deliver outstanding grip, yet engineered for easy maintenance. This makes it ideal for cutting rooms, kill floors, washdown areas, packaging zones, and any space where water and fats create a slippery environment. Built to Endure Every Argelith tile is pressed under high pressure and fired at extreme temperatures, producing a floor that is stronger than concrete and virtually impervious to wear. Tiles retain their color, texture, and slip resistance even after years of exposure to cleaning cycles, forklift traffic, and thermal shock. A Proven Solution Worldwide Argelith floors are trusted by leading food and beverage manufacturers across the globe, including dairy, brewery, and meat processing facilities. The company’s fully vitrified ceramic tiles are known for providing a safe, hygienic, and permanent flooring solution that lowers long-term maintenance costs while protecting workers and equipment. Quality You Can See and Feel Each batch of Argelith tiles is tested according to strict internal standards. The company’s commitment to quality ensures consistent dimensions, strength, and slip resistance — tile after tile, pallet after pallet. From raw material handling to finished packaging, Argelith provides the foundation for safe and efficient operations. When it comes to long-term slip resistance, hygiene, and durability, no other flooring performs like Argelith. | Argelith Ceramic Tiles – The Foundation of Performance For decades, Argelith Ceramic Tiles has been the trusted flooring choice for automotive dealerships, service areas, and workshops across North America. From luxury showrooms to high-performance service bays, Argelith delivers a flooring system that matches the precision, quality, and endurance of the vehicles it supports. Built for the Automotive Environment Automotive facilities demand more than just good looks — they require surfaces that can withstand constant vehicle traffic, heavy loads, oils, and cleaning agents without compromise. Argelith’s fully vitrified ceramic tiles are engineered specifically for these conditions. Fired at over 2,200°F, each tile forms a dense, non-porous body that resists moisture, impact, and chemicals, ensuring long-lasting performance in even the busiest service areas. Argelith tiles are available in multiple surface textures (R10–R12) to meet the diverse traction needs of workshops, wash bays, and detailing areas. While smooth surfaces are ideal for showrooms and offices, structured tiles provide the slip resistance and durability needed in service zones — ensuring safety and reliability throughout the facility. Design and Durability in One A dealership’s floor is part of its brand image. Argelith tiles combine architectural elegance with industrial strength, available in a variety of colors and finishes that complement modern automotive design. Whether highlighting a display vehicle under showroom lights or supporting the lift in a service bay, Argelith floors maintain their appearance year after year — even under extreme use. The tiles’ color-through body means chips and wear are virtually invisible, preserving the floor’s pristine look for decades. Unlike coated or polished concrete, which deteriorates over time, Argelith tiles retain their structure and finish permanently. Proven by Leading Automotive Brands Argelith is proud to be specified by many of the world’s leading automotive manufacturers, and its tiles are installed in over 1,800 dealerships across North America. Major brands rely on Argelith because they know that a strong, clean, and professional floor reflects the same values of precision and performance that define their vehicles.

High-Performance Flooring Solutions for Wineries and Beverage Production Facilities Argelith Ceramic Tiles, Inc. is a U.S.-based supplier of fully vitrified industrial floor tiles designed for the most demanding food and beverage environments. Our mission is simple: deliver flooring that performs flawlessly under heavy loads, constant moisture, aggressive cleaning, and years of daily use — without compromising hygiene, safety, or appearance. Built for Performance Every Argelith tile is fully vitrified, meaning it is fired to an exceptionally dense structure with water absorption of around 0.1%. This results in a flooring surface that is stronger than concrete, resistant to acids, and completely impervious to liquids. It stands up to forklifts, pallet jacks, and the heavy equipment common in wineries and bottling facilities — while maintaining its surface integrity and slip resistance for decades. Our tiles are available in multiple slip-resistant textures, from R10 to R13, ensuring the right balance between cleanability and safety. The R11 and R12 profiles are particularly suited for beverage production areas where wet floors are common. Each tile is precision-pressed in a mold and designed with built-in spacer lugs for tight, uniform joints that stay clean and hygienic. Ideal for Winery Environments From grape processing to bottling, winery floors are exposed to constant moisture, acids, sugars, and temperature changes. Argelith’s non-porous tile body prevents absorption of liquids and stains, providing long-term protection and easy maintenance. The tiles remain dimensionally stable even with thermal shock and heavy traffic — ideal for production areas, barrel storage, and wash-down zones. Paired with durable epoxy or polyurethane grout systems, Argelith flooring creates a continuous, sanitary surface that meets the highest standards of cleanliness. Rounded cove base tiles and integrated drain transitions can be included for a fully sealed, hygienic installation. Typical winery applications include: • Crush pads and production halls • Barrel storage and aging rooms • Bottling and packaging lines • Wash-down and utility areas • Tasting rooms and retail spaces Sustainability and Longevity Argelith tiles are made from natural raw materials and contain no coatings, sealers, or resins. Because the performance is inherent to the fired tile, no re-sealing or resurfacing is ever required. Their expected service life exceeds 50 years, significantly outlasting resin coatings or polished concrete. When repairs are necessary, individual tiles can be replaced cleanly and seamlessly — avoiding extended downtime.
