Key Data Set Information
Reference year 2026
Name
Arto Red Body Glazed Ceramic Tile
Technical purpose of product or process Arto red body ceramic tiles are high-fired terracotta tiles manufactured in Gardena, California. They are produced in both glazed and unglazed formats and made from locally sourced clays, grog, feldspar, kaolin, and mineral additives. Glazed products include a thin glaze layer for added color, finish, and performance. The tiles are available in multiple sizes, shapes, textures, and colors, ranging from natural terracotta tones to bright glazes. Typical applications include floors, walls, facades, and countertops in residential, commercial, and institutional buildings. The tiles are durable, low-maintenance, and expected to have a service life exceeding 50 years when properly installed.

1This impact category deals mainly with the eventual impact of low dose ionizing radiation on human health of the nuclear fuel cycle. It does not consider effects due to possible nuclear accidents, occupational exposure nor due to radioactive waste disposal in underground facilities. Potential ionizing radiation from the soil, from radon and from some construction materials is also not measured by this indicator.
2The results of this environmental impact indicator shall be used with care as the uncertainties on these results are high or as there is limited experiences with the indicator.
