Guides to our Tile Finishes

Antislip is basically a matt porcelain tile that has a texture or an additional layer of frit applied to the surface to give additional grip so these tiles can be used outside. All our Antislip tiles have a matching internal tile in a different finish that is suitable for use inside the home.

Flow Pumice in Antislip Finish

Our Antislip Soft finish combines softness and Antislip treatment in one. These tiles have a softer surface than a typical Antislip tile. We call them an All-in-one tile because exactly the same tile can be used inside the home across walls and floors aswell as outside the home. The surface is designed to be easy to clean and has a matt feel.

Our Contour finish harnesses the very latest digital technology to create textures that align perfectly with the printed pattern of a tile. These tiles capture the natural elements of a design as closely as possible to echo the real material, without the maintenance required with materials like natural stone or wood.

Season Wood Effect Porcelain in Contour Finish

Gloss is a highly reflective surface applied to Porcelain or Ceramic decorative tiles to give them a lovely smooth, shiny finish.

Our Marquina tiles are in Gloss finish. They are made with a special glaze formula that gives them an ultra-white finish, beautifully smooth surface and a gentle reflective surface.

Matt is a non-reflective finish gives tiles a contemporary feel. It absorbs more light than a polished or gloss surface giving the tiles a softer feel.

Forge Platinum in Matt Finish

Our Natural finish has a really subtle sheen which will reflect a little light and feels a little silkier to the touch than a Matt finish.

Abode Sand

The Natural finish found in our ceramic wall tiles is different to the Natural finish to our Porcelains. That’s because many of our ceramic wall tiles have a raised or textured surface with a natural finish.

Our Polished porcelains have a highly polished and reflective surface.

Our Satin finish is an uneven polished finish that gives the tiles an aged appearance, echoing worn stone. It’s a softer look and feel than a polish or gloss.

Bliss White in Satin Finish

Our Soft finish to our Metro and Loft collections is very much like Matt finish. It’s a lovely sophisticated surface finish with a soft touch feel.

For our Italian tiles collections Blend and Artisan this finish has a lovely silky feel to the tile surface.
