Ceramic & porcelain

Porcelain and ceramic remain the workhorses of commercial floors, wet rooms and façade rainscreens when specification and calibre are held.

What we trade

Glazed porcelain, full-body colour, polished and matt large-format slabs, mosaics, skirting and trim systems. Rectified edges for tight joints; rustic edges where the architecture asks for them. Thicknesses from standard 9–10 mm through 20 mm outdoor and selected 6 mm laminated panels.

Where it is used

Hotel corridors and guest bathrooms, residential towers, retail floors, transport interiors, and ventilated façades where the mill can support the system. Outdoor porcelain is quoted only where freeze-thaw and slip data exist for the destination climate.

Sourcing notes

We source from across Asia, with emphasis on mills that can lock a shade batch for a multi-floor project. Digital print matching of stone and timber looks is common; we still insist on physical samples because screens lie about sheen.

What to send with an enquiry

• Size, thickness, finish (matt, polished, structured) and whether rectified.
• Square metres, plus wastage allowance if the contractor has set one.
• Slip, water absorption or fire requirements of the destination code.
• Whether trims, mosaics and feature bands must come from the same kiln lot.
