It is an ideal choice for busy households looking for a sophisticated, low-maintenance solution for floors and walls in kitchens, bathrooms, or hallways.

FAQs

Can these tiles be used outdoors?

These tiles are primarily designed for interior use. Check the technical slip-rating specifications if you intend to use them in semi-outdoor environments.

How much should I order for my project?

Calculate your total square meter area and add 10-15% for wastage due to cuts and breakages during installation.

Do I need to seal these tiles?

No, porcelain is inherently non-porous and does not require sealing like natural marble.

Can I use these on walls?

Yes, their durable nature makes them excellent for feature walls in bathrooms or kitchens.

What is the weight of each box?

Please consult the packaging labels for specific weight details, as porcelain tiles are heavy and require careful handling.

Are these tiles slippery when wet?

The matt finish offers more traction than polished tiles, but always exercise caution in areas prone to standing water.

Troubleshooting

Tiles appear to have different patterns

This is intended by design using 3D inkjet technology; mix tiles from different boxes during installation to achieve a natural, random distribution.

Difficulty cleaning grout lines

Ensure a high-quality, stain-resistant grout is used during installation, and consider applying a grout sealer once fully cured.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Authentic marble appearance without the high maintenance of natural stone
  • Suitable for high-traffic areas due to hard-wearing porcelain construction
  • Compatible with underfloor heating systems
  • Unique patterns on each tile create a natural, non-repetitive layout

Cons

  • Matt finish lacks the reflective sheen of polished natural marble
  • Requires professional tiling skills for the best aesthetic results
  • Box quantity covers a specific area (2.15 m2), requiring precise measurement for ordering

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation: Ensure your subfloor is level, clean, and dry before starting installation. Due to the weight of porcelain, ensure the adhesive chosen is appropriate for heavy tiles. Use a spirit level to maintain consistent height across tiles to avoid 'lippage'.

Compatibility: These tiles are fully compatible with electric and hydronic underfloor heating systems.

Care: Maintain the look of your tiles by sweeping regularly to remove grit, which can cause microscopic scratches over time. For deep cleaning, use a PH-neutral tile cleaner. Avoid harsh acidic cleaners or wire brushes, as these can dull the matt finish over time.
