Quality Promise
Imported from Italy & Spain. Made in state-of-the-art factories, with high quality raw materials.
Porcelain wood effect tiles do not require sealing as they are hardly absorbent.
With that said, the grout lines for porcelain wood effect porcelain tiles should be sealed. This can be done with grout protector (porcelain tiles) or FILA sealer products (natural wood)
We recommend Tilemaster, Fugabella, and Bostic grout and adhesive for wood effect porcelain tiles. Your builder can provide the levelling kit, spacers, and anti-crack mats. Enjoy money off when bought together with your wood effect porcelain tiles.
Adhesive is used for sticking the wood effect porcelain tiles to the floor.
Grout is used for the gaps between the wood effect porcelain tiles
Levelling kits are used to prevent lipping in wood effect porcelain tiles
Spacers are used to ensure all your wood effect porcelain tiles are evenly spaced
Anti-crack mats ensure your wood effect porcelain tiles do not crack when the substrate expands and contracts
Concrete boards might also be required for timber substrates but your builder will advise
Grout lines between wood effect porcelain tiles are most likely to get dirty and stain so yes! Porcelain wood effect tiles do not normally require sealing because of their low absorbency rate but the grout lines (gaps between the wood effect porcelain tiles) need to be protected. Sealing the grout lines will protect them from permanent staining. FILA has specific grout sealer products that you can select when making your wood effect porcelain tile purchase
The slip resistance of wood effect porcelain tiles depends two factors; whether or not you are wearing shoes or barefoot, and if the wood effect porcelain tiles are wet or dry. We are assuming the tiles are laid flat and not on a slope!
Wood effect porcelain tiles are slip resistant when dry, barefoot or not, but please ask if you are unsure about your specific choice. To prevent slips on wood effect porcelain tiles please ensure all spills are wiped immediately. Wood effect porcelain tiles are normally a matt finish when porcelain or honed/tumbled when natural wood. Polished tiles are also sometimes used in bathrooms but we would not recommend this considering the chances of the floor being wet.
Please do not hesitate to call, email, or chat with us if you need further information on slip ratings of your chosen wood effect porcelain tile

Wood effect porcelain tiles made from porcelain are not porous so do not require sealing. They have a low absorbency rate (<0.5%) You can easily perform a “water test” on your sample to see how long a drop of water lasts on the surface.

Depending on the dimensions of your bathroom or kitchen, the size of your wood effect porcelain tiles will contribute to the overall look of your bathroom/kitchen. Common sense prevails, larger bathrooms/kitchens tend to look better with larger wood effect porcelain tiles to minimise grout lines. Example large sizes are 800x800, 600x1200, 600x900, 1200x1200 and slabs. These dimensions are in mm (millimetres)
Smaller bathroom/kitchen floors/walls tend to look better with medium size tiles such as 600x600 and 600x300. Large wood effect porcelain tiles could also work as they can give the illusion of a bigger space. Please consult with your builder to check the practicalities of installing larger tiles in a small bathroom/kitchen
Standard wood effect porcelain tile sizes range from 600x300, 600x600, 800x800, 600x900, and 600x1200. These dimensions are in mm (millimetres) Important – please check out our note on nominal kitchen floor tile sizes
