Ceratec P21 Zone Fino Estanho Matte Porcelain Tile 8" x 8"

A plain, solid-colour tile is the safe base for a room, since it works with any cabinet, vanity or wall colour. P21 Zone Fino Estanho is that kind of tile.

In simple terms: P21 Zone Fino Estanho is an 8x8 porcelain tile for floors and walls, indoors and out.

It is the matte finish in Fino Estanho from the Ceratec P21 Zone range.

The actual size is 7.8" x 7.8" (197 x 197 mm). It is 8.3 mm thick. It is full-body porcelain: the colour runs through the tile, so a chip blends in. The spec sheet lists a wet DCOF slip reading of 0.65, an R10 slip rating and water absorption of 0.1%. It is rated for heavy commercial traffic. It is frost resistant. Shade variation is V1, uniform. It is made in Portugal. Porcelain is fired dense, so it handles water, spills and daily foot traffic and the tile itself never needs sealing.

It suits kitchen floors, bathroom floors, hallways, basements, shower and bathroom walls, covered porches and patios and commercial floors such as stores and offices. Pick it when you want the floor or wall to sit quietly behind the cabinets and fixtures.

Each box holds 31 pieces and covers 12.95 sq ft, so a 40 sq ft bathroom floor takes 4 boxes, and that still leaves about 10% extra for cuts and spares. For every 100 sq ft, plan on 9 boxes with the 10% extra included.

It is listed for outdoor use, but an outdoor floor also needs the right base and slope, so ask us before planning it outside.

Our own crews install it, so the people who measure the job are the people who answer for it. See Ceratec P21 Zone Fino Estanho 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).
