Abstract (en)

The invention concerns a method for producing a mosaic panel for pavements and facings in which onto a support sheet (4) constituted by a film of non-adhesive plastic material there is dispensed, before the sheet is coupled with a grouping (2) of tesserae (2a), a distribution of hot glue such as to affect all the tesserae (2a) of the grouping (2). The glue exerts a relatively strong adhesive force on the sheet (4) and a weaker adhesive force on the tesserae (2a), in such a way that the connection between tesserae and sheet will resist the detachment stresses due to the weight of the tesserae that occur during the normal operations of handling the panel before it is installed, and also such that when the panel has been installed and the sheet (4) is removed, the glue remains attached to the sheet (4). The invention also relates to an apparatus for carrying out this method and the panels obtained thereby. <IMAGE>
