Concrete look floor tiles are the perfect solution if you like an industrial and modern look to your interior. These tiles are a practical alternative to a real concrete cast floor. A tile floor is easier to install than a cast floor. Moreover, a tiled floor goes well with underfloor heating.
Concrete look ceramic floor tiles
Concrete look floor tiles are almost always made of ceramic. These tiles are very dimensionally stable, so they can be laid with a very small joint. Such small joints support the concrete look of the floor, it looks like one large concrete surface. Ceramic tiles are fired at high temperatures and are provided with a protective layer. This makes these tiles scratch-resistant and colourfast. A concrete look floor will last for years, you can easily clean it with a mop and it will look like new again.
Concrete look floor tiles in combination with wood
A combination that you see nowadays are wooden elements with concrete-look floor tiles. These combinations can be made in different ways. For example, think of old wooden trusses or beautiful old wooden furniture in combination with the sleek yet somewhat industrial concrete look tiles. It is also possible to combine wood-look tiles with concrete-look tiles. Wood look tiles are ceramic tiles with a print that resembles wood. By using wood-look tiles, you bring the warmth of a wooden floor into your home with the convenience of a ceramic tile.
Floor heating in combination with concrete look floor tiles Ceramic floor tiles go extremely well with underfloor heating, as do the tiles with a concrete look. The advantage of ceramic tiles is that they quickly distribute the heat from the underfloor heating and also retain it for a long time. As a result, underfloor heating also saves costs.
Not just gray tiles
In addition to the usual light and dark gray tiles, there are also increasingly concrete look tiles with warmer colors such as beige and light brown. As a result, these tiles also increasingly fit into a rural or Mediterranean decor.
Large format concrete look tiles
Various concrete look floor tiles are available in XXL format. These very large tiles with dimensions of up to 120×120 cm provide an even better imitation of a concrete cast floor. Because fewer joints are visible, this floor looks the most sleek. Do you use large floor tiles in a small space? This creates a more spacious effect, ideal in, for example, a small kitchen or living room. Concrete look tiles can also be used well in the bathroom and sometimes even in the shower (depending on the anti-slip value). There is often also a grip variant of a concrete-look tile, which indicates that a tile is non-slip and can be used in the bathroom.
