LH3010001 is a 2013 LOPO catalogue reference originally published as Best White Terracotta Panel from China. A clearer present description is a historical white terracotta facade panel recorded at 300 × 600 × 10 mm. The old superlative is not a measurable product property, and the page is not a current specification. Availability, white tone, surface, dimensions, environmental statements, performance evidence and commercial information require new project-specific confirmation.
LH3010001 archive snapshot
The archived entry links LH3010001 with a nominal 300 × 600 × 10 mm size and white colour. It also used “100% natural clay” language, absolute environmental and performance claims, legacy weight and lead-time fields, and a generic technical table. These elements document the 2013 page but should not be treated as current facts.

This is the only original body image. It is a generic historical panel photograph rather than a verified LH3010001 sample, white reference or current production image.
Specify the intended kind of white
Ceramic white may be warm, cool, cream, pale grey or slightly mineral rather than paper-white. Clay body, coating or surface treatment, firing, texture, sheen and daylight can all alter perception. The archive colour label therefore cannot communicate undertone, reflectance or acceptable variation on its own.
Provide a physical colour target and explain the desired relationship to glazing, metal, sealants, stone and interior finishes seen through windows. Review current samples in sun, shade and representative artificial light. Record whether the design welcomes subtle fired variation or calls for a more controlled visual field.
Read the 300 × 600 × 10 mm entry cautiously
The historic two-to-one proportion can inform early horizontal coursing or a vertical alternative. It may help explore scale around openings, parapets and entrance zones, but a current product drawing must replace the archive dimension before the module is fixed in schedules and elevations.
The 10 mm record does not prove low weight, strength, span, impact behaviour or compatibility with a facade support system. Those questions belong to the exact current product and building. Qualified professionals should coordinate project-specific requirements without taking generic loads, spacing, anchorage or installation directions from this archive.
Review surface, edges and white variation
The old page does not reliably define whether its white appearance was glazed, unglazed, smooth, textured or created by another documented surface. That distinction affects sheen, shadow, edge appearance and visual response to dust and water. Ask the current supplier to name the offered surface precisely and provide appropriate care information.
A small selected piece may not reveal the range visible across a full elevation. Request representative samples labelled with product, colour, finish, date and status. Compare faces and edges, and distinguish a concept sample, range sample, mock-up material and proposed production benchmark in the project record.
Replace “best” and other legacy claims
“Best” is promotional wording, not a test result or objective comparison. The archived natural-clay phrase, environmental absolutes, performance figures, weight, delivery promises and generic table may relate to a former specimen, family or commercial condition. None should be transferred to a current submission without dated and applicable support.
Request present confirmation of material description, nominal dimensions, tolerances, colour range, surface, edge expectations, intended application and place of manufacture. Ask for declarations, reports and certificates clearly connected to the exact current item and destination market. Confirm quantity, packaging, programme, sample status and delivery in a new quotation.
Archive boundary: LH3010001, white and 300 × 600 × 10 mm preserve the 2013 record. Any live selection is defined by the current offer, approved sample, dated drawing and applicable evidence—not the former headline.

Built work can sharpen the visual brief, but its product, system, testing and approval context should not be assumed transferable.
Request a current LH3010001 review
Share the project location, facade area, elevations, target white reference, preferred undertone and sheen, adjoining materials, approximate quantity and programme. Mention LH3010001 and its archived 300 × 600 × 10 mm format so LOPO can trace the design cue without presenting the old listing as available.
Email roger@lopoterracotta.com or contact LOPO Terracotta. Ask for a current product recommendation, representative white-range samples, dated drawings, applicable documents and a quotation for the exact candidate.
State which qualities matter most: clean brightness, a warmer mineral white, low sheen, subtle texture, narrow colour variation or the archived proportion. Assign every candidate a unique item and sample code. Retain samples under agreed lighting and connect the selected benchmark to its current drawing and evidence set.
Ask how representative samples should be viewed and stored, because surrounding colour and lighting can make a warm white look grey or a cool white look blue. Photographing the review is useful, but the labelled physical benchmark should remain the controlling appearance reference.
If the recommended item changes the model, format, thickness or surface, revise elevations, schedules and quantities together. Keep questions about current evidence, availability, care guidance, packaging and delivery open until answered in writing. This converts a broad 2013 “best white” claim into a precise, reviewable selection without promising a purity of colour or technical result that the archive cannot support.
