One of the most unique floor tiles we have been importing at Kalafrana Ceramics Sydney (since 1997) are the Spanish Timber Look porcelain floor tiles. These remarkable porcelain floor tiles look like individual planks of timber and wood species such as oak, hardwood flooring etc.
These "Digital" print glazed porcelain floor tiles allow for each range to have a multiple of various prints (some up to over 60 prints) - enhancing the natural look. It is important that the eye sees a variation in shade and tone as well as just grain. You want people to think its timber, not a tile that tries to look like wood - "The authenticity is in the detail". This does reflect in the price as the less expensive tiles do look rather fake. We can import tiles from Spain for well under $40sqm like other importers do. But we don't..they just look to fake. We always suggest to our clients to look around and compare and you will see the difference.
These floor tiles are available in rectangular lenghts in 900mm, 1200mm 1510mm and 1800mm. A number lines also come in a slip resistant finish. This new texture free technology adds no visible structure to the tiles and no loss of the digital print detail.
They are importantly an environmentally friendly tile flooring solution. Only natural clays are used, and then fired in natural gas kilns.
As the "Timber Look" porcelain floor tile range are fired products, they are hard wearing, require no sealing or ongoing up keep. Making them perfect for domestic or commercial applications. Matching grout colours are used to further enhance the look. Clients are amazed how real they look, even on touch they still are surprised when told they are tiles.
