American Olean Unglazed Mosaics Black Porcelain Tile

Bold, Contemporary Sophistication Meets Heavy-Duty Commercial Performance

Establish a striking, dramatic foundation with a sleek and powerful aesthetic. Part of the industry-trusted American Olean Unglazed Mosaics™ collection, the Black colorway offers a deep, rich charcoal-to-black solid palette designed to bring sharp modern contrast or classic geometric styling to any architectural layout. This unglazed porcelain tile features a solid, through-body color that ensures absolute visual consistency even under the most demanding conditions.

Unlike standard glazed alternatives, the unglazed porcelain family is specifically engineered for maximum structural density and superior slip resistance. Because the deep black pigment runs completely through the tile body, everyday scratches, chips, and heavy surface wear remain virtually invisible over decades of use. This makes it an ideal selection for high-liability commercial spaces, heavy-traffic entryways, public restrooms, and residential walk-in shower floors where wet-surface safety and slip resistance are top priorities.

Engineered to endure severe conditions, this tile completely repels moisture, handles heavy rolling loads with ease, and resists harsh cleaning chemicals without staining or fading. The convenient mesh-backed mosaic sheets guarantee uniform spacing and direct alignment, making complex grid layouts straightforward to install on both high-use floors and striking vertical accent walls.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Through-Body Porcelain Solid Color: The deep Black tone runs completely through the tile body, keeping wear, scratches, and minor surface chips completely hidden from view.

• Superior Slip Resistance: The dense, unglazed surface texture provides an excellent grip underfoot, making it highly safe for wet environments like master showers and commercial pool decks.

• Heavy Commercial Performance: High-fired porcelain body easily resists severe impacts, scuffing, deep scratches, and constant heavy foot traffic over long periods.

• Stain-Proof & Chemical-Resistant: Non-porous structure blocks moisture, grease, and grime entirely, allowing for easy sanitizing with standard commercial-grade cleaners.

• Mesh-Backed for Streamlined Installation: Mesh grid-mounted sheets keep individual tiles perfectly aligned to reduce overall installation and grouting time.
