AutoKAD Car Showroom (89): AERO perforated tiles in a black-and-gray checkerboard pattern with a red frame

Use Cases

1,400 m² car showroom featuring AERO slabs, with no concrete preparation required

  • Client: AutoKAD
  • Industry: Automotive
  • Area: 1 ,400 m²
  • Location: Yonne (89)
  • Completion date: January 2026
  • Timeframe: 4 days, 3 installers
  • Service: Supply and installation of MOSAIK-FLOOR
  • Substrate: Worn concrete with variations in level

Constraints

  • Worn concrete with variations in level
  • Large 1,400 m² space to be converted into a showroom
  • A floor that matches the height of the vehicles on display

Solution

  • AERO 18 mm Perforated Tiles in Gray, Black, and Red
  • Direct clip-on installation, no surface preparation required: the 18-mm thickness compensates for unevenness
  • A black-and-gray checkerboard pattern with red borders to highlight the display areas

In brief: AutoKAD, a car showroom in the Yonne department (89), covered 1,400 m² of worn and uneven concrete in January 2026 with gray, black, and red AERO perforated tiles. Three MOSAIK-FLOOR installers completed the installation in four days, without any surface preparation: the tiles’ 18-mm thickness compensates for differences in level.

The Initial Need

AutoKAD opened its car showroom in a large 1,400 m² space in the Yonne department. The original floor was worn, stained concrete with uneven surfaces—making it impossible to display vehicles as it was. They needed a floor that would showcase the cars, support their weight and accommodate their movement, without having to undertake extensive leveling work across the entire surface.

The Selected Solution

The AERO perforated tiles were clipped directly onto the concrete without any surface preparation: at 18 mm thick, they compensate for unevenness in the floor. The layout features three colors: gray for walkways, a black-and-gray checkerboard pattern for display areas, and red borders to highlight the vehicles. Three MOSAIK-FLOOR installers covered the 1,400 m² in four days in January 2026.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Construction Project

Can tiles be laid on uneven concrete without a leveling layer?

At AutoKAD, yes: the 18-mm-thick AERO tiles were clipped directly onto worn concrete with uneven surfaces, without any surface preparation. Their thickness compensates for the unevenness.

How long does it take to install 1,400 m² of AERO slabs?

Four days with three MOSAIK-FLOOR installers; no drying time required since the tiles snap together without adhesive.

Can AERO slabs support the weight of cars?

Yes: The AERO slab can withstand 20 metric tons per square meter and is suitable for all types of light vehicles, whether in a showroom or a garage.

Why are there three colors in a showroom?

Gray marks the traffic lanes, the black-and-gray checkerboard pattern delineates the display areas, and the red frames highlight the vehicles: the floor is an integral part of the presentation.
