Xtone Calacatta Silk 120cm x 120cm x 6mm

The Xtone Calacatta Silk 120 x 120cm features a silk finish, which offers a subtle sheen rather than the high-gloss reflectivity of the polished version – this makes it a more practical choice for a bathroom floor as it is less prone to showing water marks and typically provides better slip resistance underfoot when wet. Both tiles belong to the Xtone Marble Collection and share a similar white, marble-inspired aesthetic, so your choice will largely depend on the level of shine you prefer. For a bathroom where safety and easy maintenance are priorities, the silk finish is generally the more suitable option for floor use.

Yes, the Xtone Calacatta Silk 120 x 120cm is compatible with underfloor heating, making it a smart choice for a kitchen floor where comfort underfoot matters as much as appearance. Porcelain conducts and retains heat very efficiently, so the tile will warm up quickly and stay at a consistent temperature. Ensure your underfloor heating system is installed and commissioned according to the manufacturer’s guidelines before laying the tiles, and use a flexible, large-format tile adhesive appropriate for use with heated substrates.

Each 120 x 120cm tile covers 1.44 square metres, so for a 12 square metre kitchen floor you would need approximately 8.3 tiles before accounting for wastage. We recommend rounding up and adding a 10% overage, which brings your total to around 10 boxes. This extra allowance covers cuts around kitchen units and appliances, as well as providing a few spare tiles to keep in case of any future damage.
