Feels like P2 tests as a P4.
We have been working closely with our suppliers to bring in a new finish which provides a smooth surface when dry and reaches a P4 when wet. View this new finish in the Pietra Fume and Felix Collections.
Leveling systems are tools used for precise positioning and leveling. Whether you are a professional or installing tiles yourself, you don’t want to be struggling with lippage. We recommend all tilers use a leveling system on tiles over 600mm.

The Declare Label reveals a product’s origin, composition, and responsible end-of-life disposal methods to design engineers, companies, and consumers alike. This label has been embraced by select suppliers in our network.
Managed by the International Living Future Institute (ILFI), a non-profit dedicated to fostering an eco-conscious mindset in the building sector, Declare aligns with a stringent Red List. This list pinpoints the most harmful environmental pollutants, ensuring products meet elevated standards for sustainability.
The Declare label is your key to transparency, offering instant insight into a product’s adherence to your specifications and Living Building Challenge standards. By detailing chemical compositions and flagging any substances on the Red List, it empowers informed decision-making, making sustainability a tangible and essential aspect of each choice we make.
The performance of a tile is just as important as its aesthetics, particularly in public spaces and commercial buildings with high foot traffic. Designers and architects who specify public spaces and commercial buildings have become more interested in the importance of durable slip-resistant tiles.
The accelerated wear test (AWT) is designed to provide consumers with an indication of how the slip resistance will change over long-term use. The test replicates foot traffic on the tile surface using abrasive materials and is tested at predetermined intervals for its rating. The test is done as a comparable exercise to find out which product has the greatest longevity.
Classic Ceramics uses the AWT as an efficient way of testing the quality, characteristics, and endurance of our products. In response to this growing interest, we now offer several products that achieve a minimum of P3 after 5000 cycles.
Experience the craftsmanship behind Appiani’s mosaic tiles, meticulously crafted using the innovative Powder Press technique. By layering enamels and clays and subjecting them to firing cycles surpassing 1,200°C, these tiles boast exceptional durability against impact, abrasion, and frost.
The result? A product that not only withstands the test of time but also showcases a perfect fusion of a flat masonry base and a delicately rounded glazed surface, ensuring seamless installation and impeccable adhesion. Such features make these ceramic mosaics highly versatile for both indoors and outdoors, floor and wall. They enhance any space preserving their beauty and resistance over time.
