A statement in modern design, large-format porcelain tiles create a clean, streamlined aesthetic. They are incredibly durable and extremely versatile. Available in a wide choice of colours and finishes – plain, stone, wood, patterned, textured – they will stand up to wear and tear for decades. Ideal for high traffic areas, porcelain tiles have excellent resistance to chipping and cracking, staining and water absorption.

Bathrooms call for porcelain due to the amount of water and humidity in this area. Kitchen floors, worktops and splashbacks are good places for porcelain since they’re subject to frequent use and spills. And if you want tile in your outdoor patio, it will need to be porcelain because standard ceramic tiles are not made to handle extreme weather conditions as they absorb moisture and expand and contract during temperature changes – which will eventually cause them to crack and break.
