Casablanca 8x8 Encaustic Porcelain Tile - Square Format
Encaustic porcelain tile, 8x8 square, multi-surface rated
Selected Color: SOLID GREY
Technical Specifications
Construction: Encaustic porcelain tile with integrated pattern throughout the body. Square format 8x8 inches. Porcelain composition provides dense, non-porous material resistant to moisture absorption and freeze-thaw cycles.
Material: Full-body porcelain with encaustic surface treatment. Pattern is integral to tile body, not surface glazed, ensuring durability through tile life.
Applications: Rated for floors, walls, backsplash, shower walls, shower floors, and fireplace installations. Porcelain density and encaustic construction support heavy foot traffic and wet environments.
Application & Performance
Floor Installation: 8x8 format suitable for residential and light commercial floor applications. Porcelain composition provides slip resistance and durability for high-traffic areas.
Wet Environment Performance: Encaustic porcelain rated for shower walls and shower floors. Non-porous body resists water penetration and mold growth. Suitable for steam shower environments.
Wall and Backsplash: Square format and encaustic pattern provide visual consistency across vertical surfaces. Integral pattern eliminates concerns about surface wear exposing substrate.
Fireplace Application: Porcelain's heat resistance and non-porous composition support fireplace surround and hearth installations. Encaustic pattern maintains visual integrity under thermal cycling.
Limitations: 8x8 format requires more grout lines than larger formats, increasing maintenance points. Encaustic tiles are brittle and require careful handling during installation.
