Porcelain-tile collection

Industria :

• Large-format porcelain tile


• Natural-feel texture, non-abrasive


• Range of colors

Industria porcelain-tile collection re ects an urban industrial center where utility, function,
dependability, and practicality rule.  e large-format tile is infused with the intricacies of indi-
vidual aggregate, weathered over time. Using an intricately designed mold, surfaces blend premi-
um-color body porcelain with a distinct texture of a worn and used concrete.  e texture is said
to be natural in feel, but soft to the touch and non-abrasive. Available colors include Zinc (ivory),
Lithium (light gray), Chromium (dark gray), and Graphite (black).  e tile’s graphic variation has
movement that blends light and dark details and shadows across each face. Available in a range of
large-format sizes from 12 x 24 to 24 x 48 in., applications include wet areas and exterior locations.

Expanded LVT line

Additions to the Art Select Wood gluedown LVT line bring the beauty of real wood. Designed with hand-

carved embosses and beveled edges, each plank is crafted to enhance the unique grains, knots, and textures

of the woods that inspired them, some of which are no longer available or are cost-prohibitive in their natural

state. New visuals in the collection were developed from Reclaimed Hickory, American Chestnut,

and European Oaks.
