A Guide to Bison's Premium Outdoor Patio Tile Options

The trend of outdoor living continues to flourish. Patios have become an extension of our homes, offering a space to relax, entertain, and bask in the fresh air. But creating a beautiful and functional space starts with the right foundation – your outdoor patio tiles. Here at Bison Innovative Products, a leading provider of high-quality outdoor flooring solutions, we understand the importance of choosing the perfect outdoor patio tiles.

Understanding Your Outdoor Space

Explore the unique characteristics of your space:

• Climate: Consider your region's temperature extremes. Will your tiles face intense heat and sun, or are they more likely to battle freezing temperatures and snow? For example, some wood tiles can be susceptible to warping and cracking in extreme heat and humidity. Bison’s exotic wood tiles, however, have a track record for good weather resistance.
• Foot Traffic: How often will your patio be used? High-traffic areas require durable tiles that can withstand constant wear and tear.
• Personal Style: Do you envision a modern and minimalist space, a rustic haven, or a Mediterranean oasis? The style of your patio should be reflected in your tile choice.

Beyond these factors, prioritize durability, weather resistance, and low-maintenance features. After all, your patio tiles should be an investment that can withstand the elements and provide years of enjoyment.

Bison's Premium Outdoor Patio Tile Options

Bison offers a variety of outdoor patio tile options to suit your needs and design vision. Let's explore some of our most popular choices:

Bison 2CM Pavers

Bison's 2CM pavers represent a versatile and durable option for your outdoor space. Crafted from high-quality concrete, these pavers offer exceptional strength and weather resistance. Their slim profile (2cm) makes them appropriate for a variety of applications, including patios, pool decks, and walkways. Bison 2CM pavers come in a range of colors, textures, and patterns to complement any design aesthetic.

NEW! Bison's Boost Balance 2CM Pavers

Some of the latest additions to our 2CM paver lineup are the Boost Balance products. These tiles are long-lasting and easy to clean in high traffic areas. They also meet  ADA slip resistance requirements for level surfaces. Boost Balance 2CM pavers are designed for patios, walkways, and even rooftop decks. Available in a sleek, contemporary aesthetic, Boost Balance pavers offer both style and safety for your outdoor haven.

Bison Wood Tiles

Nothing quite compares to the natural beauty and warmth of wood tiles. Bison offers highly durable Ipe wood tiles. This wood variety is known for its weather resistance and rich, brown tones that naturally turn to silver if left unsealed. Bison wood tiles are surprisingly low-maintenance, requiring only occasional cleaning and sealing.

Designing Your Dream Patio

Now that you understand Bison's tile options, let's explore how to create your dream patio. Here are some design considerations:

• Color: Consider the overall color scheme of your home and choose tiles that complement it. Lighter colors can create a more open and airy feel, while darker colors can add a touch of drama.
• Pattern: Experiment with different tile patterns to create visual interest. Mixing and matching different shapes and sizes can add a unique touch to your patio.
• Layout: Plan your tile layout carefully, considering the size and shape of your patio. Bison offers design resources and even layout services to help you visualize your dream space.

Outdoor Patio Tiles Installation and Maintenance Tips

While professional installation by an experienced contractor is recommended, here are some basic tips for installing your outdoor patio tiles:

• Prepare the Surface: Ensure the sub-base for your tiles is level, compacted, and properly drained. For raised patios using pedestals, consider the benefits of Bison's ScrewJack Pedestals. These innovative pedestals improve drainage by creating a space between the tiles and the sub-surface, thereby reducing the risk of water pooling and minimizing the chances of slip-related accidents.
• Use the Right Tools: Invest in high-quality tools specifically designed for cutting and laying outdoor tiles of the material you chose (this will be different for wood than for 2CM).
• Follow Installation Instructions: Each type of tile has specific installation requirements. Carefully follow the manufacturer's instructions for optimal results. 

Proper maintenance is key to maintaining the beauty and performance of your patio tiles. Regularly sweep debris, remove spills, and clean the tiles according to the manufacturer's recommendations. 

Balance Beauty and Functionality with Bison's Outdoor Patio Tiles

Choosing the right outdoor patio tiles is an investment in your home and your enjoyment of the outdoors. Bison's premium tile options offer a balance of beauty, durability, and functionality.
