FAROE
An Italian tile made in the USA Nestled between the raw strength of porcelain tile, and the soft nuances of natural fibers, you have the Faroe collection. Faroe is a simple, timeless selection inspired by textile design, with interlacing strands at the heart of the motif. All six colors, Seashell, Midnight, Moss, Mother of Pearl, Mist, and Celeste create an intricate, handcrafted fabric look, full of motion and texture. The aesthetic of Faroe goes beyond the traditional notion of porcelain tile and enters the world of fashion, exploring textures and patterns to create unique, warm environments. With a vast array of colors and sizes, the Faroe collection perfectly complements both residential and commercial spaces.

WHY PORCELAIN? There are many reasons to choose impervious porcelain tile over other floor coverings. It offers the largest array of design options and holds its value the longest. In a comparison between the many different flooring options, porcelain tile offers one of the most durable and least expensive options over the lifespan of the building. Benefits of Porcelain Tile • Impervious to water • Easy to maintain • Variety of design options • Environmentally friendly • Resistant to germs and bacteria • Fade resistant • Fire resistant • Durable - best long-term value vs. other floor coverings HOW TO MAINTAIN YOUR PORCELAIN TILE • Sweep or vacuum regularly. • Wash with a household cleaner and hot water then rinse with clean water (do not use wax, oil-based, or abrasive cleaners).
