The Calacatta Gold floor tile instantly gives any space a luxurious appearance. The white porcelain with subtle gold-colored veins refers to classic Calacatta marble, but in a durable and low-maintenance ceramic version. With a size of 60x120 cm and a polished, rectified finish, you can create floors and walls with a sleek, light, and spacious atmosphere.
Design & appearance
Calacatta Gold combines a bright white base color with fine, gold-colored veins that organically run across each tile. The polished surface reflects light and enhances the feeling of space and elegance. The pattern has a color variation of V2, meaning that the tiles differ slightly from each other for a natural, marble look without a repetitive pattern. Thanks to the rectified cutting edge, tiles fit together seamlessly, making the entire floor or wall appear as one coherent surface.
Application & use
This tile is suitable for both floor and wall applications in living and residential areas. Its polished finish makes it ideally suited for living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and bathrooms. Due to the large size of 60x120 cm, fewer joints are needed, which enhances the sleek marble look. The tile is not suitable for outdoor use or in wet rooms without anti-slip measures. If in doubt, consult a tiler about the correct application.

Tiler tips
- Calculate a standard 10% cutting loss when determining the required number of m².
- Use a flexible tile adhesive suitable for large formats and smooth porcelain.
- Lay the tiles in a cross or herringbone pattern to best showcase the veins.
- Choose a light grout color (white or light gray) to maintain the uninterrupted marble look.
- Carefully check the flatness of the substrate; for large formats, a flat floor is essential for the end result.
- For underfloor heating: allow the construction to fully heat up and cool down before starting to tile.
