NRC-111

NRC-111 carries a warm cinnamon with an orange undertone on a smooth satin face. Four random faces per design, 6 x 36 inch planks in glazed ceramic at 9 to 9.5 mm, 8 to a carton for 11.62 sq ft and 22 kg. The tone reads like oiled pine and suits farmhouse kitchens, white and beige walls, and black hardware. Because the grain is printed quietly, a large area such as a retail floor or a hotel lobby comes out even rather than busy. As a wood look tile for floor and wall, the same tone can carry from a kitchen floor up into the backsplash.

• What comes in a box of NRC-111?

  NRC-111 comes in 6 x 36 inch planks, 8 to a box. One box covers 11.62 sq ft and weighs about 49 lb.

• How many boxes of NRC-111 do I need for a 12 x 15 ft family room?

  A 12 x 15 ft room is 180 sq ft. With 10 percent added for cuts and breakage that is 198 sq ft, or 18 boxes at 11.62 sq ft each.

• Can NRC-111 go over radiant floor heating?

  Yes. It is a glazed ceramic plank 9 to 9.5 mm thick, so it does not gap, cup or split as the floor warms, and it has no 80°F (27°C) surface limit the way engineered wood does.

• What grout joint does NRC-111 need?

  NRC-111 is a curve-edge plank, not rectified, so plan on a joint of 3 to 5 mm, about 1/8 to 3/16 inch. The wider joint gives each board its own line, the way real planks sit.
