Porcelain Wood Look Tile

The Guayacan Blanco 8 x 48 is a  beautiful and modern wood-looking porcelain tile. These gorgeous tiles with rectified edges come in gorgeous contemporary shades of grays. The Guayacan wood-look porcelain tiles feature an incredibly real hardwood texture made with the latest Emboss in Register (EIR) technology. This technique consists in matching the engraved texture with the printed wood-grain to achieve a super-realistic hardwood texture, that looks incredible specially when viewed against the light. The extra wide and long planks allow for a series of modern patterns that will make any room look amazing. And since these are rectified tiles the clean, straight edges will provide an even surface look throughout your floors as well as minimal grout lines. Founded in 1994, Graiman the manufacturer of these tiles has been leading the ceramic and porcelain tile industry in South America for the better part of the last decade.

It is recommended that these tiles are installed with a maximum offset of 25%. But a 15 to 20% offset is optimal to achieve a real hardwood-like pattern. These tiles are more than adequate for high traffic areas in residential and commercial settings.
