Product details
Description
Industrial Chic: Patisserie Dark
Ground your design with the authentic look of aged cement but the modern performance of porcelain. The Patisserie Dark Porcelain Base Tile is a robust 20x20cm square that brings character and depth to any floor.
Inspired by the hard-wearing floors of traditional French shops and industrial workshops, this "Dark" base tile features a rich, **matte charcoal tone** that mimics the patina of real encaustic tiles. Unlike cement, however, this high-quality porcelain is non-porous, stain-resistant, and incredibly tough. It is designed to handle **heavy foot traffic** without showing wear, making it the ultimate practical choice for busy family kitchens, boot rooms, and entrance hallways where durability is paramount.

⚠️ Installation & Care Tips
- No Sealing Needed: This is a high-grade porcelain tile, meaning it is non-porous and requires no sealing or specialist maintenance.
- Grout Width: We recommend a 3mm grout joint. A dark grout (Charcoal or Black) creates a seamless look, while a light grey grout emphasizes the grid pattern.
- Batch Matching: If pairing with patterned tiles from the same range, be aware that slight tonal variations can occur between the plain base tiles and decorated tiles due to production methods. Dry lay first to ensure you are happy with the blend.
- Cleaning: Simply sweep and mop with a standard floor cleaner. The dark colour is exceptionally forgiving of everyday dirt and dust.
