Novoceram offers a multitude of floor tile collections that enhance not only your interior rooms, but also your exterior and home surroundings. Because porcelain stoneware tiles are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, the boundaries between your indoor and outdoor floors are erased, creating an aesthetic continuity that enhances the harmony of your spaces.

Floor tiles: making the right choice

Glazed stoneware is a wise choice for indoor and outdoor floors, as its technical characteristics make it suitable for installation in all types of environments. Novoceram’s floor tiles are therefore synonymous with quality, but by no means neglect their aesthetic appeal. In fact, the new technologies used by Novoceram to produce its floor tiles make it possible to perfectly reproduce certain natural materials such as wood, stone or cement. The choice of china stoneware floors is therefore wide and it’s impossible not to find the floor covering that suits you!

Interior floor tiles

Choosing interior floor tiles is no mean feat and requires a great deal of thought. Floor tiles are literally considered the foundation of a room and generally determine its decoration. They therefore play an essential role in the style of the home and often help to highlight it. Enhancing a home and its decoration is a common goal and easily achievable thanks to Novoceram’s interior floor tile collections.

In addition, certain interior destinations pose particular technical requirements, but certain collections of glazed stoneware floor tiles meet them perfectly adequately thanks to their technical qualities. For example, wet rooms such as bathrooms and kitchens require a floor covering that is highly resistant to water and steam. Ceramic tiles are the perfect solution, as they do not absorb water and are not affected by damp. The aesthetic appearance of your bathroom floor tiles therefore remains unchanged even when constantly exposed to a damp environment.

Outdoor floor tiles

Outdoor flooring has the ability to highlight your terrace, elegantly dress your swimming pool and brighten up your garden. So it’s important to take the time to study the different options and choose carefully. Novoceram’s outdoor porcelain stoneware floor offers the same effects as that intended for indoor spaces, giving you the opportunity to create a seamless aesthetic between your spaces. In addition, floor tiles must have certain specific technical properties, such as a certain level of slip resistance to reduce the risk of falling. This is particularly important around swimming pools.

2cm tiles for outdoor flooring

Novoceram has also designed the Outdoor Plus range, which includes floor tiles with a thickness of 2cm. These tiles have been specially designed for outdoor use and are suitable for installation methods other than the traditional glue-down method. In fact, it becomes possible to lay floor tiles in a variety of ways: directly on the gravel or on the lawn in Japanese steps, but also on studs to leave space underneath for cables and other pipes.

It is imperative that floor tiles have very specific technical characteristics, which vary depending on the intended use and the stresses it places on floor tiles. Clearly, floor coverings are subject to a number of different factors, and it’s essential to study them when it comes to choosing porcelain stoneware tiles.

In order to better assess the durability and performance of floor tiles, the CSTB (Centre Scientifique et Technique du Bâtiment) has developed the UPEC classification, which determines their resistance to the following four criteria: Wear, Punching, Water and Chemical Agents. When it comes to making the decisive choice, simply select floor tiles that have a UPEC classification equal to or higher than the rating awarded by the CSTB.

For your safety, it’s also essential to look at the anti-slip standards of porcelain stoneware flooring to limit possible slips and falls. Slip resistance is measured in two laboratory tests, one with shoes on and one with bare feet. This characteristic is particularly important when choosing floor tiles for swimming pools, bathrooms or even outdoors.

The collections of glazed stoneware floor tiles signed Novoceram can cover all your indoor and outdoor floors because their many effects are developed for every type of destination and application. All you have to do is choose the best option for your design and decoration from neutral or brighter colours and natural, original looks.

Novoceram’s porcelain stoneware floor tile collections reproduce certain natural materials and even make them look more real than life. For example, wood-effect or stone-effect tiles can be added to your indoor or outdoor spaces to give them a noble, authentic look. Porcelain stoneware floor tiles not only replicate the aesthetics of these luxurious materials, but also the visual details that characterise them, such as the veins and knots of wood and the mineral character of stone. Reinterpreted in a more contemporary way, the charm of these two materials brings a touch of nature to your spaces. Your space will be filled with a bright, warm atmosphere thanks to imitation parquet floor tiles, while stone adds a touch of elegance and strength to your floor. If your decor is more contemporary, sleek or industrial, you can turn to floor tiles with more modern effects, such as concrete or metal for example, which will enhance your spaces in no time. If you dare to create a highly original result, a floor tile containing geometric patterns can give your room a unique look and will, in this case, become the protagonist of your space’s decoration.

The glazed stoneware floor can feature more neutral and bright colours such as white floor tiles, ivory or even light grey, which generally give more brightness and space to your interior or exterior and let the light in. On the other hand, grey floor tiles, whose tones range from slate to dark greys such as lead, iron or graphite, are dark colours that can invite contrasts. You can combine them with light-coloured walls to create a fresh, contemporary ambience.

Floor tiles from Novoceram are available in many formats, both large and small. This wide variety of sizes makes it possible to enhance any type of space, large or narrower, thanks to square or rectangular floor tiles. So you can opt for :

Small format floor tiles, such as 20×20 or even 30×30, which have long been shunned, but are now becoming trendy again with the new fashion for cement tiles. They can be the ideal solution if you want to create a border or carpet effect on your floor to make it original.

Medium format floor tiles that measure 45×45 cm or 60×60 cm and are therefore considered standard. This format easily manages to enhance any room or exterior, regardless of their characteristics.

XXL and XL floor tiles are mainly designed for large spaces. Tiles measuring 90×90 cm or 60×120 cm make spaces feel lighter and more airy, with fewer joints. Often available in neutral colours, they offer a very contemporary design.

The glazed stoneware tile has many advantages that make it one of the most sought-after and, above all, appreciated materials.

First and foremost, Novoceram floor tiles are highly resistant to wear and scratches, which is an extremely important feature when it comes to choosing a floor tile. The floor tiles are sometimes subjected to intense foot traffic and must also withstand the presence or movement of furniture. In fact, Novoceram’s glazed stoneware floor can be laid in public places, such as shops, because its technical properties withstand the various stresses these places place on it.

Novoceram porcelain stoneware floor tiles are also very hygienic and do not encourage the growth of bacteria. This is essential in places where hygiene must be impeccable, such as restaurants. It is also very easy to maintain on a daily basis, requiring only hot water for cleaning.

The glazed stoneware tile is environmentally friendly throughout its life cycle, and Novoceram places great importance on respecting the environment. By its very nature, floor tiles do not release any toxic substances into the ambient air and are therefore awarded the A+ label.
