Design & Planning Tips
-

-
Finish effect: Gloss finish highlights the embossed pattern — consider directional lighting to enhance texture.
-
Colour pairing: Pair brown or green emboss with neutral base tiles (ivory or beige) to maintain balance; blue or white for fresh, airy aesthetics.
-
Grout strategy: Use a grout shade that either blends with the tile colour for a seamless look or contrasts slightly to emphasise the pattern detail.
Installation & Care
- Ensure a flat, stable, waterproofed wall substrate before tiling. Use a tile adhesive suitable for ceramic wall tiles.
- Check the box for emboss direction and align patterns consistently across tiles for a unified look.
- Use non-staining grout and clean the embossed surfaces promptly, wiping away excess adhesive before it cures.
- Maintenance: Wipe the tiles with a pH-neutral cleaner and soft cloth. Avoid abrasive pads as they may dull the gloss finish.
