CMC’s new Colonial Collection

Classic Marble Company (CMC) has introduced a new porcelain slab titled ‘Colonial’ under its large size Techlam collection. The designer tile is homage to an era of architecture that brought together an assortment of styles from different countries across continents. Worn burgundies, off-whites and stone blues are mixed to create beautiful sets of tiles in a fusion of different motifs that are visually brilliant and yet minimalist.

Typically the tiles may be laid out as a feature highlight in flooring and its striking patterns can more than make up for the missing designer rug or carpet. The tiles can be installed to highlight the aisle ways or passage ways and can as seamlessly continue to become a part of the adjoining wall to appear like an extension of the aisle or passage. The tiles offer versatility in applications and are just as suitable for flooring as they are for wall cladding and are a perfect solution for highlighting areas without cluttering the space. The tiles which are known for their sleek dimensions are available in 3mm thickness and in the standard 3000mm x 1000mm format. The products are low on porosity, durable, hygienic and offer flexibility in installation making it an ideal application for flooring, wall cladding or façade
