Where it can go

Indoor and outdoor floors and walls, showers, swimming-pool wall coverings, saunas and steam rooms, shop windows and kitchen backsplashes. Behind a cooktop, keep the tile at least 20 cm (8 in) from open flames.

Installation

Extrusion gives every piece slight differences in size, surface and tone. Blend pieces from several boxes and lay them side by side without spacers: the joints form naturally and the tonal range reads as intended. Have your installer confirm the adhesive, substrate and application.

Technical performance
