Product story

Industrial Geometry: Urban Axel

Inject contemporary edge into your home with Urban Axel—a 20x20cm porcelain tile that fuses classic geometric patterns with a raw, industrial aesthetic.

Part of the acclaimed 'Urban' collection inspired by the creativity of Spanish street artists, the Urban Axel tile stands out with its bold, interlacing geometric design. Rendered in cool, moody tones, it mimics the weathered texture of urban concrete while maintaining the sharp definition of a premium tile. Crafted from super-hard wearing porcelain, it features a specialized R10 anti-slip finish, making it a stylish yet practical solution for wet room floors, busy hallways, and seamless indoor-outdoor living spaces.

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

To request a return, contact Hyperion within 14 days of delivery. For eligible online consumer cancellations, you have a further 14 days after telling us to send the goods back. Contact us for the correct return address; your statutory cancellation does not depend on our authorisation.

Additional supplier returns have their own eligibility rules, charges and exclusions. These do not override statutory cancellation rights or rights for faulty goods. See our refund policy and supplier return guidance before arranging a return.

Product Frequently Asked Questions

Is this tile suitable for outdoors?

Yes! Urban Axel is a frost-proof porcelain tile with a specialized R10 anti-slip finish. It is perfect for garden patios, pathways, or balconies, allowing you to create a seamless transition from your kitchen to your outdoor space.

Is it safe for wet rooms?

Absolutely. The tile is designed with safety in mind, making it ideal for wet room floors, walk-in showers, and swimming pool surrounds where slip resistance is essential.

Does it look like real cement?

Yes, it is designed to mimic the matt, tactile finish and industrial aesthetic of traditional cement tiles. However, because it is porcelain, it won't stain, fade, or require the sealing that cement tiles do.

Can I use it with underfloor heating?

Yes. Porcelain is a dense material that conducts heat efficiently. It is fully compatible with underfloor heating systems, ensuring your floor feels warm and comfortable underfoot.

Installation & Care Tips

⚠️ Installation & care

  • No Sealing Required: Urban Axel is made of high-quality glazed porcelain, which is non-porous. It requires zero sealing, making it a low-maintenance choice for modern homes.
  • Mix & Match: This patterned tile pairs beautifully with the plain tiles in the Urban range (like Urban Grey or Charcoal). Use the plain tiles to create a border around the Axel pattern for a sophisticated finish.
  • Grout Colour: We recommend a Medium Grey or Manhattan grout to blend with the industrial tones of the design and keep the maintenance low.
