Overview

What this finish is for

T02 is the floor finish we supply the most of. A mid grey with a very fine mineral speckle, completely matt, and specified almost entirely for large floor areas in workplaces, retail and circulation spaces.

The speckle is doing a job. A perfectly flat grey shows every scuff and every drag mark from a delivery trolley; a fine mineral break-up absorbs them. Eight years in, the difference between a floor that has been maintained and one that has been maintained badly is much smaller than it would be on a flat colour.

At 20 mm it is rated for external paving on pedestal systems. At 12 mm it is an internal floor. The two thicknesses are the same colour and the same batch recipe, so an internal floor can run out onto a terrace without a visible change.

A 3200 × 1600 slab is not a big tile

Two people and a frame move it; a suction rail does the rest. The reason the format matters is not the size of the slab, it is the number of joints that disappear from the drawing.

A three-metre island in 3200 comes out of one slab, with the waterfall ends book-matched from the same piece. In 1200 × 600 it is nine pieces and eight joints, and every one of those joints is a decision somebody has to make on site, at seven in the morning, with the client arriving at nine.

Datasheet, CAD slab outlines and the care guide. No form, no email address required — the same files your fabricator will ask you for.

See it before you specify it.

A 200 × 200 mm sample tells you what a photograph cannot: how the surface behaves under the light in the actual room.
