Asly

The Asly tile is designed with a hand-crafted, country-inspired look, making it an excellent choice for rustic kitchens, farmhouse-style bathrooms, or any space where you want to add warmth and character. Its cool neutral shade means it pairs well with natural materials like wood and stone, as well as with both light and dark cabinetry.

The slim brick format naturally lends itself to a classic brick-bond or running bond pattern, where each tile is offset by half a tile’s width from the row above and below. This layout emphasises the handcrafted character of the tile and creates a timeless, artisan feel. Alternatively, a straight stack bond can give a more contemporary look if that better suits your scheme.

Absolutely – the Asly porcelain tile with its high shine gloss finish is a great choice for kitchen splashbacks, as the smooth surface is easy to wipe clean from cooking splashes and grease. Its slim brick shape and neutral tone work particularly well behind a range cooker or as a full-width splashback behind kitchen worktops. Being a porcelain tile, it is also highly durable and resistant to moisture.

Because the Asly tiles have a cool neutral shade, a grout in a similar tone will give a seamless, understated look that lets the hand-crafted texture take centre stage. If you want to emphasise the brick pattern and add more visual definition, a slightly contrasting grout in a mid-grey or charcoal can look striking. We recommend ordering a sample tile before finalising your grout choice so you can test colour combinations at home.

Porcelain is denser and harder than ceramic, so the Asly tiles will require a good quality diamond-tipped wet saw or angle grinder for accurate cuts, especially around sockets, pipes, or window reveals. We recommend using a professional tiler if you are not experienced with cutting porcelain, as an incorrect cut can cause the tile to crack or chip. Always factor in a wastage allowance of around 10% when calculating how many tiles you need to order.
