Create a bright, sleek space with our new Lumiere White Matt 60 x 60cm floor tiles. Crafted from highly durable porcelain with a contemporary matt finish, they are perfect for handling heavy foot traffic in modern kitchens.

The best kitchen tile ideas pair durability with style. For floors, porcelain is the standout choice — large-format, wood-effect and stone-effect tiles are hard-wearing, easy to clean and warm nicely with underfloor heating. For walls and splashbacks, glazed metro, brick, mosaic and marble-effect tiles are both practical and stylish. Below are ideas for kitchen floors, walls and splashbacks, plus tips on choosing tiles that last.

Kitchens are the hardest-working room in the house, so tiles need to handle spills, grease, heat and constant foot traffic — all while looking good. The good news is that modern porcelain does all of that and comes in almost any finish, from realistic wood and stone to bold pattern.

Choosing Kitchen Tiles That Last

Jaipur Old Ochre and Hoppers Hat square glazed ceramic kitchen splashback tiles

Our Jaipur Old Ochre Square and Hoppers Hat square tiles bring artisan character to your splashback. These ceramic tiles feature a beautiful undulating glazed finish that is both visually stunning and highly practical to wipe down.

For floors, choose porcelain with a slip-resistant (R10 or higher) finish and, ideally, pair it with underfloor heating so the floor is warm underfoot. For splashbacks and walls behind a hob, use glazed, heat-resistant tiles that wipe clean easily, and avoid unsealed natural stone directly behind the cooker.

💡 Hyperion Tip: Order samples before you commit — view tiles in your kitchen under both natural daylight and your artificial lighting to see how finishes, colours and textures really look in your space. Visit our Ascot showroom or browse online to find your perfect kitchen tile.
