Olympia Tile Ontario Bone Glossy Porcelain Mosaic 2" x 2"

A mosaic is the easiest way to give a backsplash, a niche or a shower wall some detail without changing the whole room.

In simple terms: Ontario Bone is a 2x2 porcelain mosaic for dry floors and walls, indoors.

It is the glossy finish in Bone from the Olympia Tile Ontario range. Each sheet measures 11.93" x 19.88", or 30.3 x 50.5 cm.

It is 6 mm thick. It is rated for medium commercial traffic. Porcelain is fired dense, so it handles water, spills and daily foot traffic and the tile itself does not need sealing.

It suits backsplashes, feature walls, shower walls and small accents in a dry floor. Pick it as the feature, and run a plain field tile around it.

Each sheet covers 1.64 sq ft, so a 30 sq ft kitchen backsplash takes 19 sheets, or 21 sheets with about 10% extra for cuts and spares. It is sold by the sheet, so you order exactly the count you need. For every 100 sq ft, plan on 68 sheets with the 10% extra included.

It is listed for outdoor use, but a glossy face gets slick when wet, so we would not put it on a patio, steps or a pool deck. On a floor, keep the glossy face out of showers and away from entry doors where wet boots come in, because it gets slick when wet.

In this size, Ontario also comes in Black, Cobalt, Dark Grey, Snow White and Biscuit. Bone also comes in 2". Matching cove base and round edge trim is listed in the same colour.

Our own crews install it, so the people who measure the job are the people who answer for it. See Olympia Tile Ontario Bone 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).
