Red Thick Terracotta Brick for Floor Decoration: 2013 Archive preserves a short LOPO product entry published in 2013. The old page presented a 100 × 200 × 50 mm format and used red, thick, Natural Clay and floor-decoration language alongside packing, application, function and certification fields. The retained image filename is only a tracing clue; it is not treated as an Item No. or product model. Those details describe the archive only. They do not establish a currently supplied product, current colour, present dimensions, material composition, floor suitability or verified performance.
Understand What the 2013 Entry Records
The archive can help a researcher identify the source page and formulate questions, but it is not a current data sheet. Its compact fields did not establish the meaning, order, tolerance or nominal-versus-actual status of each dimension. The page also did not connect its broad claims to current dated evidence.
| Source identity status | No verified Item No. or product model; the image filename is only a tracing clue |
|---|---|
| Archived format | 100 × 200 × 50 mm |
| Archived title cues | Red, thick and floor decoration |
| Archived material wording | Natural Clay |
| Archived document fragment | GB/T19001-2000/ISO9001:200 |

The original photograph remains once and in its source order. It offers visual archive context only; a web image cannot confirm present colour, texture, scale, wear behaviour or availability.
Treat Red and Thick as Archive Cues
Red may have described the appearance recorded on the old page in 2013, while thick may have referred to the old format or a comparison used by the former catalogue. Neither word defines a present colour range, surface, body or supplied thickness. Screen rendering, lighting, photography and natural production variation also prevent the archived image from serving as a current approval sample.
For a live enquiry, request a product identifier and labelled physical samples representing the range proposed now. Record the sample date, colour range, surface, role and reviewer. If a successor item is suggested, keep its identity separate from the unverified legacy entry rather than silently treating both records as the same product.
Use the Old Format Only for Early Comparison
The archived 100 × 200 × 50 mm notation is a historical source value, not a current dimensional promise. It should not be copied into drawings, schedules, quantities or tender documents until a dated current drawing identifies the exact candidate and explains its geometry. The 50 mm figure must not be presented as a currently available thickness merely because it appears in the old title context and size field.
Project teams can use the archive to ask whether a related format exists, then compare the written response, sample label, drawing and quotation. This page provides no generic substrate, load, slope, joint-width, fixing or installation instruction. Building-specific design decisions remain with appropriately qualified project professionals using current information.
Keep Every Material and Function Claim Historical
Archive boundary: Natural Clay, packing, floor paving, acid, antibacterial, heat insulation, non-slip, firebrick and wear wording appeared in the 2013 record. The truncated GB/T19001-2000/ISO9001:200 string is reproduced only as an incomplete archive fragment. None of these fields is a current product, performance, certification or commercial declaration.
Natural Clay does not by itself establish current composition, sourcing or environmental qualities. Acid, antibacterial, heat-insulation, non-slip, firebrick and wear terms do not prove present test results, classification, suitability or compliance. In particular, firebrick wording is not current fire evidence, and non-slip wording is not a current slip result for any environment.
Ask for dated documents that identify the exact proposed item, specimen, method, result, issuer, market and scope. The incomplete certification string cannot prove a complete standard designation, certificate holder, site, product coverage, validity or present status. Packing and commercial information also require a current quotation tied to the same product identity.
Define the Present Floor-Paving Inquiry
Floor decoration and floor paving were archive application descriptions, not current approval for a particular interior or exterior location. A useful enquiry should state the project country, building use, intended area, exposure, traffic context, desired appearance, approximate quantity, programme and documentation requirements without assuming that the pictured legacy item remains available.
Responsible reviewers can then identify which current evidence and project criteria apply. Keep visual review, technical review and commercial review distinct: a sample supports appearance, a drawing describes the named product, a report supports only its stated scope, and a quotation addresses current supply. None substitutes for the others.
Explore Current Products and Built References
Use the current terracotta floor tile page as a discovery route for presently described products.
Browse LOPO’s terracotta project collection for architectural context, scale and material expression.
Visit the LOPO contact page to request current identification, samples, drawings and applicable documents.
Keep the 2013 source page in a separate archive register so current product records do not inherit its unverified fields.
Current pages and project references can support discovery, but they do not prove that the pictured legacy item, its old format or any archived claim continues unchanged. Confirm each live candidate in writing.
Request Current Floor-Brick Information
Send the project location, use, design stage, approximate area, preferred red direction, desired format, traffic context, programme and required submission list. Cite the retained 2013 page and 100 × 200 × 50 mm explicitly as 2013 archive references, not specifications.
Email roger@lopoterracotta.com or use the contact form. Ask whether a current related product exists and request its exact identifier, labelled range samples, dated drawing, applicable evidence, packing information and quotation.
Create a verification register for the archive statement, current response, product code, sample, document issuer, date, scope and review status. If no successor is confirmed, leave the source page as a historical record. If one is proposed, update all live schedules and reviews to the successor’s current identity rather than transferring the old red, 50 mm, material, paving, function or certification wording.
