Outdoor Porcelain Tiles
Our outdoor Porcelain tiles are more than just paving stones, they are works of art. Each tile is expertly crafted to replicate the natural beauty of traditional paving, with all the added benefits and modern conveniences of man-made material.
With a wide variety of colours available, the possibilities are truly endless. Choose from striking black options, neutral greys, or lighter white and ivory tones to bring a sense of balance to your space.
The beauty of Porcelain Paving is not just skin-deep. It’s also a low-maintenance dream come true. Each tile is scratch and stain-resistant with a non-slip surface, so you can spend less time worrying about upkeep and more time enjoying your garden. The R-11 non-slip rating makes our Porcelain Paving safe to use around pools or water features to add some extra peace of mind that your project will be safe for the whole family to enjoy!
Create a place that is not just functional but where style and practicality come together to offer you the best of both worlds.
Traditional Colours & Modern Benefits
Choose from our wide selection of colours to find the perfect outdoor porcelain tiles for your garden.
Options range from the dark and striking tones within our Black and Nero Porcelain which will make a statement in any design to one of our most popular options in the Silver Grey Porcelain which offers some lighter tones for the perfect neutral backdrop to any space. If you’re looking for something a little brighter still, our elegant Ivory and White Porcelain Paving will be sure to brighten up any dark areas to create an added sense of space in your garden.
As porcelain paving is man-made, there is a great deal of control over the colours and finishes allowing you plenty of consistency for the perfect finish! Choosing porcelain tiles will give you the added confidence that your project will turn out just as you’ve pictured it! Porcelain Paving is also unaffected by changes in temperature with the colours staying consistent throughout and impervious to fading, even in the heat and sunlight of the Summer.
How Are Porcelain Tiles Made?
Porcelain paving is made from a mix of clay, sand and minerals baked at a high temperature. Once fired, each slab is ground and polished, ensuring they are of a consistent size and colour. This vitrification process makes the slabs easier to lay and means that your patio will maintain a consistent look.
Because of the state-of-the-art manufacturing process, vitrified porcelain paving is incredibly strong and can easily withstand high levels of footfall. The tiles can also take the weight of vehicles and heavy loads, making it a great option for driveways too! Vitrified paving will easily withstand any extreme or severe weather conditions without being damaged and are sure to provide a strong and sturdy base for your project.
Can I Use Porcelain Tiles Outside?
Absolutely! Our outdoor porcelain tiles are double the thickness of a regular tile which makes them more than capable of withstanding the elements. It’s often easy to think of porcelain as a fragile material, but at 20mm thick, outdoor tiles are one of the most robust options available!
High-Quality, Low-Maintenance
Porcelain, the slabs are non-porous and will absorb little to no water. This stops any moisture from building up within the tile and will help to prevent the growth of algae and mould, as well as prevent moisture from freezing inside the slabs so they won’t become prone to cracking during the winter.
There’s no need to worry about any accidental spills as anything dropped onto the slabs won’t be drawn into the surface as it would in natural stone, meaning that you’ll simply be able to wipe the tiles clean! Red wine or grease from a BBQ is easily cleaned up by a quick wipe with some warm, soapy water. As with anything, spillages that are left over a long period of time will always need a little more elbow grease to remove, but there are some great products that will help you to clean up the tiles with much better results than you could expect from a porous stone, so you can be sure that your patio will clean up brilliantly every time!
Outdoor porcelain tiles won’t necessarily need to be sealed to prevent staining in the same way that natural stone would, but there are some great products such as the LTP Porcelain Tile Protector which will help to protect the tiles from any tough residue and lift off it off with ease.
