The London tile suppliers The Chelsea Tile Company host our River Thames webcam, but the camera does not show you the diverse range of natural stone tiles, porcelain tiles and mosaic tiles that they can supply. Working with London based tile specifiers their designer tile ranges are more diverse than many as their tiling projects range from end developments to environmental projects where ethical sourcing and eco tiles are needed. Recently they have added Zero emission tile ranges / eco friendly tiles for those conscientious folk who care about their tile installation. They have a great service where they visit your office with a mobile tile samples library, which can prove useful busy architects and designers. |

The most recent addition to our ranges is a reconstituted marble range that has many advantages over standard natural stone. This Technical Marble range has managed to standardise the marble product more so that colour is much more regular throughout an entire block of stone and natural faults in the marble are irradicated so finally each slab and tile are guaranteed to sit beside one another perfectly.
The huge colour range is available in slabs 3.5m x1.2m and tiles, in a range of thicknesses. This makes it ideal for full bathrooms along with tops or why not clad a bathroom in huge slabs? View our Crushed marble products.

Up until now we have been unconvinced about the much heralded lightweight tiles coming in thicknesses around 5mm. These tiles up until now have been difficult to lay because of how brittle and fragile they are; I recently heard them compared to
