D19-20903

D19-20903 is a warm chestnut with a matte textured face, five 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. This one is aimed at the floors that take the most traffic: hallways, stairwells, shop floors. The matte face grips, hides scratches better than a smooth glaze, and does not shine under a row of downlights. Mid chestnut does not telegraph dirt and works with oak, white and black. The tile can also be run onto stair treads and risers so the stair and the hall read as one surface.
