Oaklore Wallnut

This tile pairs the two things that keep a tiled floor from reading as tile: twelve random faces, double the rest of the Oaklore range, and the longest plank made. On a 1400 mm board a hotel lobby or a showroom can run a long way before anything repeats in view, which is exactly where a lower count gives itself away. The colour is a red brown near jarrah on a deep rustic texture that hides dust better than the paler tones do. Planks are 200 x 1400 mm in glazed ceramic at 9 to 9.5 mm, 4 to a box, covering 1.12 m2 at 24 kg.
