TOP 3 Benefits:

Earp Bros Porcelanosa Wall Tiles are suitable for a range of decorative and practical applications. The products are inherently chemically resistant and suitable for interior, splashback, wet area and commercial walling applications. The product is available in a large format which reduces the amount of grout and maintenance required over the life of the product, however the tiles can be cut to size where required.
The product incorporates approximately 8.5% post-industrial waste recaptured from the manufacturing waste stream where un-fired raw material is returned to the ceramic body preparation.
Earp Bro Tiles offers a Product Stewardship Program to take back the products at the end of service life for recycling or reusing.
