About

Extruded tiles are made by forcing the clay material through a mould for a desired shape and size. The tiles are then passed into a kiln to be dried to remove some of the moisture.

This Base Greco Floor tile is made via the above process and measures 314mm by 314mm. These floor tiles are full body tiles with a thickness of 14mm. Full body vitrified tiles have the same pigment in entire body (thickness) of the tile. This makes chips and scratches less noticeable and make this an ideal choice for high foot traffic zones.

The Base Greco Floor tile range has a natural, earthy, rustic look & feel to the tile. Perfect for your outdoor area around a swimming pool, patio and verandas to create a natural East African atmosphere.

Due to their chemical resistance these full body tiles can survive in even the most rigorous conditions. These include industrial factories, laboratories, food & fruit industries as well as commercial kitchens.
