Parquet look terrace tiles for a functional and welcoming terrace

The choice of terrace tiles is crucial and sometimes difficult. There are many factors to consider. For example, outdoor flooring must not only protect the terrace, but also withstand harsh weather conditions. Wood effect tiles are made of porcelain stoneware and can enhance any outdoor space thanks to their many technical features, such as easy maintenance and resistance to UV and frost. In addition, our tiles are also suitable for use on pool surrounds. In this case, you must choose a product with a suitable anti-slip level. Whether it is for a relaxing atmosphere on your terrace with wood effect tiles, a tropical-style balcony or a boardwalk garden project, parquet effect terrace tiles combine the aesthetics of wood with the advantages of ceramic.

The advantages of a wood look terrace tiles

Outdoor environments often have very specific requirements that flooring must meet. It is therefore necessary to take the time to choose the tiles that will cover the floor of your house surrounds and to assess their resistance to outdoor conditions.

Furthermore, ultraviolet rays do not have any effect on porcelain stoneware, as it does not fade nor darken. Grey terrace tiles do not change in any way, for example, in terms of colour, whether light or dark, or in terms of finish, which also remains unchanged.

The maintenance of wood effect tiles for balcony is extremely easy. All you need to clean flooring on a daily basis is hot water and a cloth. Stains can be easily removed as they remain on the surface of the tiles due to their low porosity. If more intensive cleaning is required, it is possible to use aggressive products, offered by professional brands. Indeed, porcelain stoneware resist to chemical products.

However, porcelain stoneware reproduces all the details of parquet flooring with meticulous precision.

Is it possible to lay terrace tiles with wood effect around an outdoor swimming pool?

Wood effect tiles for terrace can be used to cover swimming pool surrounds. This is possible thanks to the low porosity of porcelain stoneware.
