Natural stone Biancone Antique - Timeless beauty with character
The Natural Stone Biancone Antique tiles bring the unparalleled charm of tumbled marble to your interior. These compact 10x10x1 cm marble tiles have a soft creamy white base with subtle beige and grey veins that make each tile unique. The tumbling process gives the tiles a weathered, antique finish with softly rounded edges, which instantly adds warmth and character to any room. The result is a floor or wall that is not only beautiful, but also tells a story - a perfect combination of natural beauty and artisanal finish.

Material advantages of tumbled marble
Natural stone Biancone Antique offers advantages that man-made alternatives simply cannot match:
-
Natural beauty: Each tile is unique with its own pattern, which creates an authentic, vibrant look
-
Stable value: Natural stone is a timeless choice that retains its value and even becomes more beautiful as it ages
-
Heat conductive: Pleasant with underfloor heating and never feels cold under your feet
-
Anti-slip properties: The tumbled finish provides a slightly textured surface for extra grip
-
Sustainability: A properly maintained natural stone floor will last for generations, making it a sustainable choice
The tumbled surface not only provides a characterful appearance, but also makes maintenance easier because small scratches and signs of wear are less noticeable than with polished marble.

Frequently asked questions about Natural Stone Biancone Antique tiles
Can I use this tile outside?
This natural stone tile is primarily developed for indoor use. For outdoor applications in the Dutch climate, this tile is less suitable due to its sensitivity to frost and weather conditions. For terraces and garden paths, we recommend specific outdoor tiles with proven frost resistance. Our advisors will be happy to help you find the right natural stone options for your outdoor project.
How do I maintain my Biancone Antique natural stone tiles?
Maintain your Biancone Antique tiles with a pH-neutral natural stone cleaner. Avoid acidic products such as vinegar or lemon juice, as these can damage the marble. For daily maintenance, wiping with a damp cloth is sufficient. We recommend impregnating the tiles after installation and repeating this every 1-2 years for optimum protection against stains.
Are these tiles suitable for underfloor heating?
Yes, Biancone Antique tiles are suitable for underfloor heating. Natural stone conducts heat excellently, resulting in efficient heat distribution. Ensure that the system heats up and cools down gradually (maximum 5°C per day) to prevent thermal shock. Always consult the installation instructions for your underfloor heating system.
How do I prevent stains on my natural stone tiles?
Prevention is better than cure with natural stone. Impregnate the tiles immediately after installation with a quality natural stone impregnation agent. Wipe up spilled liquids such as wine, coffee or oil immediately. Use coasters under glasses and pots in the kitchen and bathroom to prevent rings. For stubborn stains, you can use a special stain remover for natural stone.
