The Specifier’s Guide explores these areas, whilst also examining specific materials and formats, as well as niche specifications, including ceramic facades, murals and ‘renovation replication’. It also features more than 30 in-depth technical articles and case studies, contributed by specialist manufacturers and carefully selected industry experts, providing authoritative advice on subjects ranging from wet-room applications to the specification of coloured grouts. The Guide’s initial distribution includes over 22,000 architects, as well as developers, interior designers and facility managers.
