Casona Blanco 8 x 48 Porcelain Wood Look Tile

Description

Casona Blanco 8 x 48
Porcelain Wood Tile Made in Spain

The Casona Blanco 8 x 48 wood-looking porcelain tile comes with a beautiful, slightly-textured matte finish that provide an amazing real wood look. These large format porcelain tiles come with rectified edges to minimize grout lines up to 1/16th of an inch. Designed and manufactured in Spain by Cifre Ceramica under strict quality controls that significantly reduce the bowing rate that is inherent to porcelain tile manufacturing. With a PEI Class IV rating, this floor is more than adequate for high traffic areas in residential applications, and recommended for commercial settings.

The rectified edges provide an even surface look on the joints or grout lines. The manufacturer recommends installing the tiles with 1/8th of an inch grout line. A smaller grout line can be achieved with minimal “lippage” with a leveling-spacers installation system. The manufacturer also recommends installing the planks with an offset of 25% or less to minimize the bowing ratio. A 15-20% offset is optimal to achieve a real hardwood pattern. You can achieve regular staggered patterns or herringbone patterns with this product. Never install porcelain tiles on a “brick pattern” or 50% offset pattern.
