Looking to identify and purchase some tiles

[Tbone68]

Hi,

(New to the forum).

I have my bathroom fitted with tiles purchased from wholesale domestic in Glasgow about 7 years ago. They no longer sell them and I need about 21 tiles to tile a wall where a showe r was. Tiles a re a dark grey with a kind of bubbling pattern on them. 60 x 30 cm.I have seen some with the same pattern but a much lighter shade.


If anyone knows such a tile I would be very grateful.

Regards,

Brian

Welcome along to the forum Brian. Do you know the manufacturer? and would I be right in saying that they are a polished porcelain tile?

Hi,

They are a polished tile, could be porcelain, Im not sure. I dont know the manufacturer, but the tile had an italian name when we purchased it from WD.

They look very similar to a tile called niro granite which were distributed by pilkingtons (now gone bust). I've just had a quick browse around to see if I can find any, I've got 20m2 at home that I got from Topps a few weeks ago as they seem to be selling alot of the old Pilkington stock cheap. I'll get one out and upload a photo to compare to yours.

Think your gonna struggle as WD buy a lot of end of line stuff and it was seven years ago..... I have seen the tile fitted before but can't put a name to it. Try Tiles In Your Garage

They do look very similar and are 600 x 300 so even if you can't find the exact ones these might be a pretty good alternative.

Cheers whoever put the link in.... I can't do that from my phone (or more like I don't know how)

I just saw a name on the back :
Todanato

Todonato supply a lot of online companies. If you google it they come with quite a few suppliers in the uk.

Ok guys. Thanks for all your help so far.

I think I have found the tile :

Todanato Palazzo. PT006505 Santelmo Pulido 30 x 60.

It is shown 1/2 way down this web page.
Todagres Todanato, Porcelánico Técnico » Catalogue

So, any idea how I can find this in the UK ? I have seena few similar, but its difficult on the web pages to see if they are a direct match as they all rename them.
