Oaklore Grigio

June to September tests an entrance floor more than the rest of the year put together. Wet sandals, dripping umbrellas and fine mud all land in the first few feet inside the door. Oaklore Grigio sits at a mid grey-brown, so it hides that traffic better than a pale floor, and Rustic Texture has deeper relief than a smooth face, which helps underfoot. This glazed tile takes a mop and needs none of the polishing a real oak floor asks for. The tile is 100x500mm and 9 mm thick, and the short length handles a narrow passage with few awkward cuts when laid straight with a 125 mm quarter offset.

• What comes in a box of Oaklore Grigio?

• What colour and surface does Oaklore Grigio have?

  The colour is mid grey-brown. Oaklore Grigio has a Rustic Texture surface with deeper grain relief you can feel, and 24 random faces, so neighbouring planks vary.

• Which grout joint should I use for Oaklore Grigio?

  Use a joint of at least 3 mm, usually 3 to 5 mm, because Oaklore Grigio has a curve edge (non-rectified). Choose a grout close to the tile for a quiet floor, or a contrasting one to show the zigzag.
