Ceratec Multiforme Decor Ramage Caldo Glossy Porcelain Subway Tile 3" x 12"

A backsplash or a shower wall is looked at up close every day, so the colour, the sheen and the grout line count for more than they do on a floor. Multiforme Decor Ramage Caldo is made for that wall.

In simple terms: Multiforme Decor Ramage Caldo is a 3x12 porcelain subway tile for walls only, such as backsplashes, feature walls and shower walls.

It is the glossy finish in Decor Ramage Caldo from the Ceratec Multiforme range.

The actual size is 2.9" x 11.8" (75 x 300 mm). It is 8.5 mm thick. The spec sheet lists water absorption below 0.5%. It is frost resistant. Shade variation is V3, moderate. It is made in Italy. Porcelain is fired dense, so it handles water, spills and daily foot traffic and the tile itself never needs sealing.

It suits kitchen backsplashes, feature walls, bathroom and shower walls and tub surrounds. Pick it as the feature on a backsplash or a shower wall, and run a plain tile around it.

Each box holds 48 pieces and covers 11.41 sq ft, so a 30 sq ft kitchen backsplash takes 3 boxes, and that still leaves about 10% extra for cuts and spares. For every 100 sq ft, plan on 10 boxes with the 10% extra included.

It is listed for walls only, so do not put it on a floor, including a shower floor.

In this size, Multiforme also comes in colours including Agata, Argento, Giada, Opale and Ossidiana. For edges, Ceratec recommends a 3/8" trim profile.

Our own crews install it, so the people who measure the job are the people who answer for it. See Ceratec Multiforme Decor Ramage Caldo in person at our Mississauga showroom (700 Dundas St E, Unit 3-4, 905-277-2227) or our Barrie showroom (112 Saunders Rd, Units 1-4, 705-726-2272).
