Unaway 20mm Collection

As part of the outdoor porcelain patio tile range, the Unaway 20mm tiles are constructed to withstand the UK’s variable climate, including frost and freeze-thaw cycles that can damage lesser materials. The 20mm thickness and dense porcelain composition keep water absorption extremely low, which is the key factor in preventing frost damage.

The Unaway 20mm Collection sits within our outdoor porcelain patio tile category, and tiles in this range are designed with slip resistance appropriate for outdoor use. We recommend checking the individual product listings or contacting our team at Stoke Tiles to confirm the exact slip rating for the specific tile within the Unaway range that you are considering, to ensure it meets your safety requirements.

The 20mm thickness of the Unaway tiles makes them structurally suited to pedestal installation, which is a popular method for raised terraces, roof gardens, and decked areas where a traditional mortar bed is not practical. This installation method also allows easy access to waterproofing membranes or drainage layers beneath the surface if maintenance is ever needed.

20mm porcelain patio tiles are significantly heavier than standard tiles, and a full pack of Unaway tiles can be substantial in weight. We recommend arranging for delivery to a ground-level access point where possible and having at least two people available to unload and move the tiles, as attempting to handle them alone risks both personal injury and tile damage.

Porcelain tiles like the Unaway 20mm are very low maintenance compared to natural stone, as their dense surface resists staining, moss, and algae build-up. A regular sweep followed by a wash down with a mild cleaning solution and a stiff brush is usually sufficient to keep them looking their best, and a pressure washer can be used periodically for a deeper clean.
