Fired Earth Bert & May Tile Collection

Encaustic Inspiration, Porcelain Practicality

The Fired Earth Bert & May collection is specifically designed for those who wish to elevate their home with the historic charm of traditional handmade encaustic tiles, without the associated rigorous upkeep. The teams at Fired Earth and Bert & May worked meticulously to ensure the flat, milky colours and beautifully imperfect, chalky textures of the original cement tiles were fully expressed. The result is a gorgeous, stunningly practical porcelain tile that requires absolutely zero specialist sealing, naturally repelling stains in busy family kitchens and high-traffic environments.

Iconic Geometric Patterns & Plains

To ensure your space perfectly captures your unique vision, this extensive collection features Bert & May's signature colour palette: soft pinks, deep navy blues, forest greens, and striking monochromes. You can make a bold, contemporary statement with the graphic lines of the Alalpardo or Crosses designs, embrace the sunshine burst of the Santona, or opt for the vintage reclaimed feel of the Bolonia. Furthermore, the inclusion of perfectly colour-matched plain tiles allows you to seamlessly zone spaces, create striking borders, or design bespoke chequerboard layouts.

Unbeatable Versatility Inside & Out

Because they are manufactured from high-performance porcelain, these tiles boast exceptional versatility. They are completely frost-resistant and UV stable, making them a phenomenal choice for bringing pattern to outdoor patios and garden paths. Indoors, their non-porous nature and R10 slip rating make them a perfect, water-resistant surface for luxurious wet rooms, shower enclosures, and busy bathroom floors.

Installation & Care Tips

To achieve the best possible finish with your patterned porcelain tiles, we strongly recommend unpacking your tiles and physically 'dry laying' a section of your chosen pattern on the floor before mixing any adhesive. This ensures you are completely happy with the alignment and visual flow of the geometric design. Use a high-quality, flexible adhesive and a complimentary grout (a 3mm grout joint is typically recommended). Because they are non-porous porcelain, maintenance is wonderfully simple; just stick to regular sweeping and mopping with a mild, pH-neutral cleaner to keep your floors looking pristine.
