Metro Plum Gloss 200 x 100mm

The Metro Plum Gloss 200 x 100mm tiles in a deep purple tone work beautifully as a kitchen splashback when balanced with neutral cabinetry such as white, light grey, or natural wood finishes. Because each box covers just 1 square metre, you can use a single box or two to tile a focused splashback area rather than the entire kitchen, letting the rich plum colour act as a considered accent rather than an all-over statement. A white or light grout will soften the contrast, while a dark grout will enhance the bold, dramatic effect of the gloss finish.

The Metro Plum Gloss 200 x 100mm tiles are ceramic wall tiles rated for bathroom use, making them a great choice for tiling around a bath surround or on the walls of a wet room. Their gloss finish is moisture-resistant and easy to keep clean in wet environments, but it is important to use a waterproof tile adhesive and fully waterproof grout to ensure the installation remains watertight over time. These tiles are for wall use only and should not be laid on the floor of a wet room or shower tray.

Yes – grout colour has a significant impact on the finished look of the Metro Plum Gloss 200 x 100mm tiles. A white or cream grout will highlight the classic brick-shape pattern and create a clean contrast against the rich purple tile body, giving a more traditional metro feel. Opting for a dark charcoal or anthracite grout instead will create a more moody, sophisticated finish that lets the deep plum colour take centre stage – a particularly striking choice for a bathroom feature wall.
