3. Unmatched Performance

The enduring allure of Italian tile flooring finds its most compelling expression in high-impact and high-moisture areas. These tiles are fired at extremely high temperatures, resulting in tiling material that is robust, hygienic, and easier to maintain. This makes them an indispensable choice for environments that demand uncompromising performance.

Italy sets the standard for the global tile industry, not only in aesthetics but also in sustainability. Our Italian tiles are produced in facilities that uphold environmentally responsible practices. For the eco-conscious home or business owner, by incorporating Italian porcelain, you're investing in a product that’s as kind to the planet as it is beautiful in your space.

Choosing the Most Suitable Italian Tile Flooring

With so many options available, how do you choose the right Italian tile? Selecting floor or wall covering that’s just right for your space depends on several factors, including the desired style, use of the room, and lifestyle needs. Below are some of the things to consider:

  • Choose Style that Matches Your Aesthetic: Take a moment to think about the atmosphere you want to create. You can get some ideas of the floor or wall tile you want by looking at the surrounding furnishings. Brighter colors work better in compact areas like the powder room, earthy shades will ground a room meant for relaxation, while darker hues can envelop an expansive space and make it cozier and more intimate. Do you prefer the same flooring across different areas to maintain cohesion? Identify whether you want modern, transitional, rustic, or a completely different décor theme.
  • Assess the Function of the Space: Take into account the practical requirements of the room. Opt for scratch and wear-resistant Italian tile flooring with a matte or textured finish for high-traffic areas such as the entryway, hallway, or kitchen. Prioritize material with a low water absorption rate for the bathroom or laundry room, and you can explore lightweight and glossy finishes for walls or fireplace surrounds.
  • Consider the Tile Size and Layout: The tile size and how it’s laid can influence our perception of a room. Italian mosaic tile in herringbone, penny, basketweave, or square adds intricate detailing and works best in bijou areas. Bigger sizes, such as 18x36, 24x24, 24x48, and 36x36 tile, deliver a seamless, larger-than-life finish perfect for modern, open spaces.
  • Think Long-Term Maintenance: Our Italian porcelain tile is low maintenance, thanks to the qualities mentioned earlier: resistance to stains, moisture, and wear. Consider how much of your time you’re willing to invest in upkeep and what finishes suit your lifestyle the best.
  • Seek Expert Advice: Not sure where to start, uncertain about your choices, or have questions? Don't hesitate to contact our expert team. We will walk you through the options we have and help you select the best material to suit your style, needs, and budget.
  • Order Tile Samples First: Before making a splash on new tiling material, order tile samples to test in your space. See how color, texture, and finish look in different lighting and how well they complement the other elements in the room. Only then can you confidently choose the best Italian tile for your space. 

The Various Styles of Italian Porcelain Tile

The styles offered in this collection are as endless as your imagination! Some trending unglazed and glazed Italian tiles include:

Marble-Look Porcelain Tile: Timeless Luxury and Refinement

Marble’s beauty is like no other: charming and undeniably captivating. However, its allure can often be overshadowed by the high cost and care the stone requires to last long. Our Italian tiles faithfully emulate the richness of real marble while offering the practicality of porcelain. These gorgeous wall and floor coverings showcase vein patterns and shade variations that become the star of the show. Designs like Air Superiority Blue 24x48 Polished Porcelain Large Format Tile are a great finish for that spa-like bathroom, grand entryway, or luxurious kitchen.

Wood-Look Porcelain Tile: Warmth and Naturalness

Tile that looks like wood can accent your home with rustic appeal while remaining unaffected by everyday wear and tear that plagues traditional parquet. It mimics the look but does not need regular treatments such as waxing and sanding. The organic flair of wood-look Italian tile evokes warmth that turns the living room or bedroom into a haven of comfort. Case in point: our Brown 30x30 Matte Slate Porcelain Large Format Tile!

Terrazzo Porcelain Tile: Flair and Resilience

Inspired by traditional Venetian flooring, our Terrazzo porcelain tiles are meticulously crafted to

reflect the tactile beauty of the real thing. Find Italian tile flooring in colorful flecks that elevate interiors into luxurious sanctuaries and are fit for paving patios, terraces, and garden surrounds. Choose from the various designs, like our Gray Black 8x9 Matte Hexagon Porcelain Tile.

Terracotta Porcelain Tile: Rustic Charm Reinvented

Echoing the earthy tones and organic character of traditional terracotta, our Italian tile lookalikes, such as Terracotta 18x18 Matte Square Porcelain Large Format Tile, exude the same rustic vibe without the fuss. Ideal for Mediterranean-inspired interiors, patios, and gardens!

Handmade-Look Porcelain Tile: Artisan Character

While the charm of Spanish and Moroccan handmade tiles fascinates, modern living calls for materials that excel beyond mere beauty. That’s where the resilience of Italian tiles comes in! Our options maintain the rich coloring, lustrous glazes, and artisanal textures, with the strength offered by porcelain. The vertical canvases of the home allow you to add handcrafted flair with an Italian tile backsplash, accent wall, or fireplace surround. Deep Forest Green 6x6 Glossy Square Porcelain Tile has a striking decorative impact, and can be paired with Terracotta Blue Green 6x6 Matte Square Porcelain Tile to bring an original, contemporary touch indoors.

Where to Use Wall and Floor Italian Tiles

Thanks to their strength and styling flexibility, Italian tile backsplash and flooring designs can go on various surfaces. Here are some of the best places to feature them:

Italian tiles are up to the task: resistant to scuffs, bustling footsteps, and impact from dropped objects.
