With the increasing popularity of large format tiles used in commercial premises and the benefits they offer to clients (such as fewer grout lines, anti-bacterial properties, internal features and exterior cladding), the correct use of professional tools is essential on every project.
Sigma UK is the UK branch of Sigma Italia, which has been designing and manufacturing professional handmade tiling tools in Rimini, Italy, since 1964. Sigma was working alongside tile producers long before large format tile manufacturing had even been invented. Large format tiles were created in Italy in early 2000, since when Sigma has developed a start-to-finish system that allows users to correctly and safely install them.
