A Soft Matt Finish: Bilbao Matt White 20 x 50cm

An understated matt white ceramic in a generous 20 x 50cm brick format — Bilbao Matt White from Hyperion Tiles, your official Fired Earth stockist.

Made in Spain, Bilbao Matt White brings a soft, contemporary calm to bathrooms and kitchens. Where gloss reflects, the matt glaze quietly absorbs the light for a mellow, tactile finish that feels effortlessly modern against timber, brass and natural stone. The elongated 20 x 50cm format gives a generous sense of scale to walls, showers and splashbacks, whether laid in a brick bond, stacked or run vertically.

A glazed ceramic wall tile, it needs no sealing and wipes clean in a moment — an effortless, enduring choice for the busiest rooms in the home.

Installation & care

Installation & care

  • Adhesive & Grout: Fix to a sound, level wall with a quality flexible adhesive, and choose a grout in a soft white or tonal shade to suit your scheme.

  • Cleaning: Simply wipe with warm water and a mild cleaner. This glazed ceramic needs no sealing and shrugs off everyday splashes and steam.
Samples

Tone, glaze and veining all read differently in your own light. Cut samples are free — sample postage is £4.99 (£8 for Original Style) and we refund it on tile orders over £50 with the code we email you. Our family-run team is happy to check quantities and finishes with you on 01344 620211.

Delivery

In-stock orders are dispatched within 3–5 working days, with express options available. Special-order and made-to-order ranges carry their own lead time, shown on the product page and confirmed when you order. Pallet, slab, large-format and bathware orders travel on a specialist off-load service — we confirm the timescale and book a date that suits you before dispatch.

Delivery is calculated at checkout from your order and postcode (we do not offer showroom collection) and UK delivery is free on orders over £1,000 on most ranges. For pallet deliveries please tell us about access issues in advance — low trees or bridges, narrow roads or gateways, gravel drives, or no turning or unloading space — as a re-delivery charge may apply if we cannot complete delivery.

When your order arrives

Please check your delivery as soon as it arrives. Once goods are unloaded they become the responsibility of the receiver, so if anything isn’t right, contact us within three working days and we’ll put it right quickly.

Returns

Unused, complete orders can be returned within 14 days of delivery; as tiles are picked and packed to your quantity, a restocking fee of 20–30% applies depending on the range. Fired Earth ranges are returned through Fired Earth’s own returns process, and special-order items are non-returnable unless damaged on delivery or faulty. Ordering a free sample first is the simplest way to avoid a return.

Product Frequently Asked Questions

Can Bilbao tiles be used on floors?

Bilbao is a glazed ceramic wall tile, made for interior walls such as bathrooms, kitchens, shower walls and splashbacks. It is not rated for use underfoot. If you would like a coordinating floor, our team can recommend a suitable porcelain.

Do Bilbao tiles need sealing?

No. The glazed ceramic surface is non-porous, so no sealing is required. Simply wipe clean with warm water and a mild household cleaner.

How many Bilbao tiles will I need?

Bilbao 20 x 50cm is sold per tile, with 10 tiles covering one square metre (0.1m² per tile). We recommend allowing around 10% extra for cuts and wastage — our team is happy to help you calculate quantities.

What finishes and sizes does Bilbao come in?

Bilbao White is available in Gloss and Matt finishes, in two formats — 20 x 50cm and 23 x 33.5cm. Order a free cut sample to compare the finish in your own light before you commit.
