Description

Discover Amaya Terrazzo, where statement style meets subtle sophistication. Elevate interiors with this premium 900x900mm terrazzo effect porcelain tile, crafted to blend contemporary design with timeless elegance. The large-format size creates a seamless, expansive feel, whilst the terrazzo effect delivers a rich blend of natural stone fragments, offering visual depth and character.

Why Choose Amaya Terrazzo Porcelain Tiles?

Part of our contemporary porcelain collection, these large-format tiles authentically recreate the classic terrazzo aesthetic—a time-honoured Italian flooring technique dating back to 15th century Venice. The surface captures the distinctive speckled appearance of traditional terrazzo, featuring scattered fragments of marble, granite, quartz, and stone set against a refined base colour.

At 900x900mm, these generously sized tiles create a bold, modern statement whilst minimising grout lines for a cleaner, more sophisticated finish. The terrazzo aesthetic brings versatility to any interior style—from mid-century modern to contemporary minimalism, from industrial chic to Mediterranean elegance.

Unlike authentic terrazzo which requires specialist installation, regular sealing, and ongoing maintenance, these porcelain tiles deliver the same stunning visual impact with superior practicality. They offer exceptional durability, stain resistance, easy cleaning, and moisture resistance—giving you the artisan look without the labour-intensive upkeep of genuine terrazzo.

  • Outdoor Extension: Continue into conservatories or covered outdoor areas for indoor-outdoor flow

Installation & Care

Installation Requirements

  • Large-format tiles (900x900mm) require professional installation for optimal results
  • Use high-quality flexible tile adhesive suitable for large-format porcelain
  • Ensure substrate is perfectly level, clean, stable, and properly prepared
  • Use tile levelling systems to achieve consistent flatness across large tiles
  • Suitable for interior floors in both dry and wet areas
  • Compatible with underfloor heating systems
  • Minimum grout joint: 3mm recommended for best appearance
  • Expansion joints required as per manufacturer specifications

Easy Maintenance

Porcelain tiles are exceptionally low-maintenance. For routine cleaning, simply sweep or vacuum to remove loose dirt, then mop with warm water and a pH-neutral tile cleaner. The terrazzo effect pattern naturally disguises minor marks and everyday wear. Avoid harsh acidic or abrasive cleaners that could damage the surface finish. The tiles are stain-resistant, scratch-resistant, and will maintain their appearance for decades with minimal effort. No sealing required—unlike genuine terrazzo which needs regular professional sealing.

Cutting & Handling

Due to their large format, these tiles require professional cutting equipment—ideally a wet saw with a diamond blade suitable for porcelain. Handle with care during installation to prevent edge chipping. We recommend ordering 10% extra to account for cuts around edges, obstacles, and potential breakage. Large-format tiles are heavier than standard tiles, so ensure adequate manpower for safe handling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can these tiles be used with underfloor heating?
Yes! These porcelain tiles are fully compatible with underfloor heating systems (both electric and water-based). Porcelain's excellent thermal conductivity makes it ideal for heated floors, efficiently transferring warmth into your room. Ensure your installer follows manufacturer guidelines for heating systems and uses appropriate flexible adhesive.

How many tiles do I need for my room?
Each tile covers 0.81m² (900mm x 900mm). Measure your room area in square metres and divide by 0.81 to calculate the number of tiles needed. Add 10% for cuts, wastage, and future repairs. Our team can help with calculations—simply contact us with your room dimensions and we'll provide a detailed quote.

Are these tiles suitable for outdoor use?
These tiles are designed for interior use. For outdoor terrazzo-effect tiles, please see our frost-resistant porcelain collection specifically rated for external applications. However, these tiles can be used in covered outdoor areas like conservatories or enclosed porches where they're protected from freezing conditions.

What's the difference between these and real terrazzo?
Genuine real terrazzo is made by embedding marble chips in concrete or resin, then grinding and polishing the surface—a labour-intensive process requiring skilled craftsmen and ongoing maintenance including regular sealing. These terrazzo-effect porcelain tiles replicate the authentic terrazzo appearance but offer superior practicality: no sealing required, easier installation, lower cost, consistent colouring, and immediate availability. You get the artisan aesthetic without the artisan price tag or maintenance burden.

Can I install these tiles myself?
Due to their large 900x900mm format, we strongly recommend professional installation. Large-format tiles require specialized equipment (wet saws, large-format suction handles, tile levelling systems), specific skills to prevent lippage (uneven edges), and experience working with the weight and handling requirements. If you're an experienced DIY tiler with proper equipment, ensure you follow all manufacturer guidelines and use appropriate adhesive and techniques for large-format porcelain.

What is the finish—matte or glossy?
The Amaya Terrazzo features a subtle matte finish that enhances the natural stone aesthetic whilst providing practical slip resistance for safe flooring. The finish brings out the depth of the speckled terrazzo effect without creating excessive shine or glare. This makes them suitable for all areas including wet rooms and family bathrooms.
