⚠️ Installation & Care Tips

  • Suitability: Designed specifically as a lightweight Wall Tile. It is not suitable for floor installations.
  • Adhesive: Always use a white flexible wall tile adhesive. Using a grey adhesive can cause unwanted shadowing through light-coloured ceramic glazes.
  • Grout Recommendation:
    • For a seamless, pure white wall, use a brilliant white grout such as Mapei Ultracolour Plus 100 White.
    • For a subtle, defined brick effect, use a soft contrasting tone like Mapei Ultracolour Plus 103 Moon White or 110 Manhattan (Light Grey).
  • Maintenance: This ceramic tile does not require any sealing. Clean regularly with a soft cloth and a pH-neutral cleaner. The matt finish is excellent at hiding minor watermarks in shower enclosures.

Product Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this tile on the floor?

No, the Minoli Blancos Baikal Mate is a ceramic wall tile and is not rated to withstand floor traffic. It is designed exclusively for internal wall applications.

Why choose a matt finish over a gloss finish?

Matt tiles provide a softer, highly contemporary look that absorbs light rather than reflecting it. This reduces glare from spotlights and creates a very calming, spa-like atmosphere. Additionally, matt finishes are naturally better at hiding water spots and soap marks, making them a very practical choice for busy shower enclosures.

Do I need a specific adhesive for white tiles?

Yes, we strongly recommend using a white wall tile adhesive rather than a grey one. Grey adhesives can sometimes shadow through the glaze of pure white ceramic tiles, dulling their brightness.

Does it need sealing?

No. Despite the matt finish, this is a fully glazed ceramic tile. It is completely non-porous and highly stain-resistant, requiring no sealing, waxing, or specialist maintenance ever.
