Perfectly Positioned Porcelain

We relaunched our porcelain terrazzo style tiles 18 months ago introducing a new selection of just eight handpicked designs.

The range, available in size 600×600, immediately proved popular. Since then, we’ve expanded the design choices and introduced a number of visually stunning options for clients looking for a thinner profile than traditional terrazzo, with the added benefits of stain resistance and non-slip properties.

Fast forward to May 2020 and our newest additions have just come in – and we think these are very special! They are available in three finishes, polished, honed and textured, so there is an option for every situation, with the textured tiles meet the most stringent slip-resistant testing. Just 10mm in thickness, these new options are made from solid porcelain rather than being printed. This means that, just like our regular terrazzo, the edges can be polished.

Another big selling point is price, as these are less expensive than regular terrazzo tiles, giving more design choice to clients working to a budget. Prices start from £59.50 sqm for orders over 10 sqm (excluding VAT and delivery) with the printed tile range starting from £49.50. Sizes are 200×200, 600×600, 600×300 and 1200×600. Lead times are generally faster than many as we are set up to good stock levels.

Diespeker MD John Krause says “Having established Diespeker in a unique position on the terrazzo world stage not just as suppliers but also installers and manufacturers working with cement or resin, poured on site or precast for bespoke or standard terrazzo, offering these porcelain tiles seems a logical progression. We’re now in pole position to supply the rapidly-developing market for porcelain terrazzo lookalike tiles.

“Taking into account lockdown situation resulting in longer delivery timescales, we’re adding more and more stock at Diespeker HQ as we’ve been receiving an unprecedented number of requests for samples – plus several confirmed orders.”

The new tiles are ideal for both commercial and residential clients. To view and order from this range please click here and view tiles PC019 to PC044.
