Tile Collection Combines Metals and Concrete - Beautiful

Ola,

Recently, I was reading my daily email from FRESH HOME and I came across an item that I thought was so BEAUTIFUL - THE FIRST TILE COLLECTION TO COMBINE METAL AND CONCREATE BY DECOTAL.




Decotal is the brainchild of its founder and creative director Adi Fainer, an award-winning industrial designer who envisioned the first collection of tiles to combine concrete and metals. The metals are laser cut into beautifully designed patterns that are cast in the engineered concrete making a seamless tile. Metal platings include chrome-nickel, silver, gold up to 24K gold and anodized in aluminum and titanium. The contrast between the metal cold shiny look and feel and the warm roughed concrete surface creates a special effect.



The tiles are hand made from engineered polymer concrete (EPC), require no maintenance and can be ordered in a large variety of colors. Metal graphics are unlimited and can be custom ordered to fit any required shape opening the way for unique designs and art works. 


I thought this would look as the bottom of a pool

EPC characteristics:

  • Up to 3 times stronger than equivalent concrete surface.
  • Outstanding durability and superb scratch resistance.
  • Highly resistant to chemicals with anti-bacterial properties.
  • Thermal and shock resistant. Excellent resistance to abrasion, impact and cracking.
  • Seamless and impermeable. No need for sealers or any other protection systems.
  • Highly resistant to UV light, weathering and temperatures up to 80°C .Color stable, can be installed outside, ideal for almost any environment.
  • Anti-slip properties.
  • Resistant to alkalies, acids, greases, oils, salts and other aggressive media.
  • Easy maintenance, Easy to clean, hygienic.
  • Bespoke installations and colors.
  • Environmentally friendly.


How and where would you use these tiles?
