Karachi Wall Tiles

The Karachi wall tile comes in a generous 59.6x150cm large format size, which is specifically designed to create sweeping, uninterrupted wall surfaces with fewer grout lines. While large format tiles can work in smaller rooms and can actually make a space feel larger, it is worth consulting with your tiler beforehand to ensure your walls are sufficiently flat and your adhesive and substrate can support the weight of these substantial tiles.

The Karachi tile is crafted to mirror the luxurious appearance of natural marble, with realistic veining and tonal variation printed onto a high-quality ceramic body. Because it is a manufactured tile rather than natural stone, you benefit from a much more consistent appearance across tiles and none of the porosity concerns associated with genuine marble, making it easier to maintain in bathrooms and kitchens.

Due to their large format size and ceramic weight, the Karachi tiles require a full-bed fixing method using a suitable large format tile adhesive, with no voids left behind the tile. We strongly recommend using a professional tiler experienced with large format tiles, as correct wall preparation and adhesive coverage are critical to preventing tiles from debonding or cracking over time.

Yes, the Karachi wall tiles are well suited to bathrooms, en suites, and wet rooms, where their marble-effect finish adds a spa-like sense of luxury without the maintenance demands of real stone. As with any wall tile in a wet area, ensure all joints are grouted thoroughly and that the substrate is properly waterproofed before installation to protect the wall behind.

The Karachi tiles are straightforward to clean – a soft cloth or sponge with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner is all that is needed for everyday maintenance. Because these tiles replicate the look of marble on a ceramic body, they do not require sealing as natural marble would, making them a much more practical choice for busy bathrooms and high-use walls.
