Davos Sway Grey 9 x 36 Porcelain Wood Look Tile

Description

Davos Sway Grey 9 x 36
Porcelain Wood Tile Made in Spain

The Davos Sway Grey 9 x 36 is a wood-looking porcelain tile that comes with a smooth matte finish that accurately simulates an oak hardwood floor. These tiles come with rectified (square) edges to help minimize grout lines and to provide and even surface look. This collection is designed and manufactured in Spain by Cifre Ceramica under the absolute highest quality standards. Their tiles go through extensive testing to 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 a seamless surface look, perfect for modern spaces. The manufacturer recommends installing the tiles with 1/8th of an inch grout line. A smaller grout line can be achieved with minimal “lippage” using a leveling-spacer 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.
