It brings the warmth of a farmhouse floor with the durability and low upkeep of porcelain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach hex measures roughly 5.5\" x 6.3\" and is 8.5 mm thick, with pressed edges. Shade variation is deliberately high, and different tones come mixed in every box, so no two tiles read exactly the same. That variation is the point of the look, but it also means you should pull from several boxes at once and lay out tiles before setting to check the blend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's rated for floors and walls, indoors and out. Low water absorption and frost resistance make it a good fit for covered patios and sunrooms as well as kitchens, entryways, mudrooms and bathrooms. DCOF is above 0.42, so it meets the standard for level interior floors that get wet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall with a polymer-modified thinset and standard porcelain methods. Because pieces can vary slightly in size, a joint of about 2 mm (roughly 1\/16\") is recommended rather than butting tiles tight, plus proper perimeter and movement joints. Clean up grout haze with a ceramic tile haze remover, then maintain with warm water and a neutral liquid cleaner; skip powdered or abrasive cleaners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpec\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTile Collection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCollection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCottage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGraphite\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGlazed porcelain\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShape\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHexagon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThickness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8.5 mm (approx. 5\/16\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMatte\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLook\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAged terracotta \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShade Variation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eV3, moderate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEdge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePressed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrost Resistant\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApplications\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFloor and wall, interior and exterior\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePieces per Carton\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCoverage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4.68 Sq.
