Checkerboard
Two colours in 12 × 12 in, equal proportions.
Limestone character, porcelain versatility. Four mineral tones and tactile fossil detail, for quiet continuous surfaces or a more graphic composition.
Technical specifications
Collection specifications. Confirm the selected finish, format and supplied batch with Arta before ordering and installation.
Design with confidence
Matt offers R10; ultra matt offers R11. The listed DCOF applies to matt and ultra matt only. No equivalent slip classification is asserted here for silky. Confirm the finish, thickness and installation system for wet areas or exterior work.
V2 indicates moderate shade and texture variation. Fossil detail and tonal movement are part of the collection’s character. Mix pieces from several boxes in a dry layout before installation.
Check shade, calibre and visible condition before fixing. General guidance calls for at least 2 mm joints on rectified pieces and 3 mm on non-rectified pieces, with adhesive applied to both substrate and tile back. Confirm the exact format and local installation requirements.
After the grout has cured, remove installation residues with a compatible cleaner, following its instructions and testing a small area first. Routine care should avoid wax build-up and abrasive pads; never use hydrofluoric acid or its compounds.
Colour alone does not define the order. Agree on size, finish, thickness and any mosaic or chevron detail with Arta. Collection formats and photographed layouts are not a statement of local stock availability.
Colour specification
Samples are not full sized and vary from collection to collection.
This is a flat fee for up to 5 tiles. If the shipping address is far, additional fees might incur.
