Product Description:

Our Wood Effect Brown Porcelain Paving is a plank-format outdoor porcelain slab designed to replicate the look of natural timber. At 1200 x 305mm it lays in long, narrow boards like real decking, and suits patios, garden pathways, borders, balconies, and schemes replacing timber decking across domestic and commercial landscaping.

The warm brown tones give the character of natural hardwood — the grain, the knots, the variation from plank to plank — without any of what comes with it. Porcelain does not rot, warp, splinter, or need sanding, oiling, or staining, and it will not fade to grey or turn green and slippery through a wet winter the way timber decking does. For anyone who has maintained a real deck, that is the whole argument for this product.

Fired at very high temperatures into a dense, virtually non-porous slab, it absorbs almost no water, so it resists frost, holds its colour in sunlight, and shrugs off moss, algae, grease, and food and drink stains. There is no sealing to do, just an occasional wash, and a textured outdoor finish keeps it grippy underfoot in wet weather. Each plank carries its own grain pattern and tone, so the laid surface reads as natural rather than repetitive, and the format suits staggered and stretcher bond patterns. Bed on a full mortar bed with a slurry primer applied to the back of each slab, and cut with a diamond blade rated for porcelain.
