Why Mbrico
Why Mbrico Porcelain Systems Outperform Traditional Decking
Mbrico is a fully engineered porcelain deck system designed for rooftops, balconies, and elevated decks. Unlike wood, composite, or traditional paver systems, Mbrico integrates reinforced porcelain tiles with a patented track and tongue-and-groove installation method that delivers structural stability, drainage, and long-term performance without degradation.
What Makes Mbrico Different?
Mechanically Fastened Deck System for Faster Installation
Precision-cut tiles integrate with a patented tongue and groove track system using mechanical fasteners, creating a secure, repeatable installation process with standard tools and improved consistency.

Wind Uplift Rated Rooftop Deck System (Miami-Dade NOA)
Mechanically fastened tiles create an interlocking system resistant to wind uplift, tested to meet Miami-Dade standards for secure rooftop deck applications.
High Load Bearing Deck System (Up to 4,500 lbs per Tile)
Each tile supports up to 4,500 pounds, delivering structural strength suitable for high-traffic areas, commercial environments, and applications requiring superior load capacity.
Slip Resistant Decking With Higher DCOF Rating (ADA Compliant)
Engineered with a high DCOF rating, Mbrico surfaces provide reliable traction in wet conditions, meeting ADA compliance for slip-resistant outdoor flooring.
Freeze-Thaw Resistant Decking Material for Cold Climates
Mbrico’s non-porous porcelain absorbs almost no water (only 0.05%). Low water absorption prevents expansion and cracking during freeze-thaw cycles, ensuring long-term durability in cold climates where traditional decking materials fail.
Thermal Shock Resistant Decking for Extreme Climates
From -58° F (-50° C) to 140° F (60° C), Mbrico tiles withstand rapid temperature changes without cracking, maintaining structural integrity and appearance.
Chemical Resistant Porcelain for Rooftop and Outdoor Use
Porcelain surfaces resist exposure to acids, salts, and cleaning agents, maintaining structural integrity and appearance in rooftop, coastal, and chemically exposed environments.
Mold and Mildew Resistant Outdoor Decking Material
Mbrico surfaces resist mold, mildew, and organic growth due to extremely low water absorption, making them ideal for humid environments and shaded outdoor applications.
Non-Porous Deck Surface That Resists Dirt and Debris
Non-porous porcelain prevents dirt, debris, and liquids from penetrating the surface, allowing for quick cleaning and reducing long-term maintenance compared to traditional decking materials.
Stain Resistant Decking That Won’t Absorb Liquids
The non-porous surface prevents stains from penetrating, allowing common contaminants like grease, food, and debris to be easily removed without permanent discoloration.
Porcelain Decking With No Maintenance Requirements
Mbrico porcelain decking requires no sealing, staining, or treatments. Unlike wood or composite, it maintains performance and appearance without ongoing maintenance or seasonal upkeep.
Fade Resistant Decking That Maintains Color Over Time
Through-body porcelain resists UV exposure, maintaining consistent color and appearance over time without fading, unlike composite or wood decking materials.
Fire Resistant Decking Material (Porcelain, Class A)
Non-combustible porcelain does not ignite or spread flame, providing a safer fire-resistant decking solution that outperforms wood and composite materials in fire-sensitive environments.
Cool Surface Decking With High Solar Reflectance Index
All Mbrico colors have a high solar reflectance index (SRI) between 60% and 80%, reducing heat absorption and keeping surfaces cooler under direct sunlight compared to traditional decking materials like composite.
Porcelain Decking With Matching Interior
Engineered for rooftops, balconies, and elevated decks, Mbrico systems provide consistent performance across applications with seamless transitions between indoor and outdoor environments.
Sustainable Decking System With Lower Lifecycle Impact
Mbrico porcelain decking reduces long-term environmental impact through exceptional durability, minimal maintenance, and elimination of chemical treatments, supporting sustainable design and extended material lifecycles.
