Conejo Hardwood

Conejo Hardwood is a reddish merlot on a matte textured face with six random faces per design. Planks are 8 x 48 inches in glazed ceramic at 9 to 9.5 mm, 5 per carton for 12.91 sq ft and 25 kg. Rated for outdoor use, six faces is a high count for a tile that has to work on a patio: an outdoor floor is usually seen whole from a doorway rather than in pieces, which is exactly where a repeat shows. Red brown reads like redwood or cedar decking against brick and planting, and the matte face grips when the surface is wet.
