Crossville Inc. has launched Alaska, a terrazzo-look porcelain tile collection. Manufactured with the company’s Digital Plus technology, Alaska replicates the timeless appearance of terrazzo tile enhanced with a dual finish that blends matte and shimmer for a convincing effect. The distinct surface visual interpreted in a durable porcelain tile provides designers and specifiers a high-performance, cost-effective alternative to real terrazzo. The line’s tone-on-tone visuals, enhanced by the hint of glint revealed as light passes across the dual finish surface, come in five colors: ice, bone, mink, glacier and tundra.
The collection includes a range of sizes. Field tiles are offered in 24 by 48, 24 by 24 and 12 by 24 inches, as well as a classic 2-by-2-square mosaic and an adventurous new polygon mosaic, mesh-mounted on 13-by-15 sheet. These mosaics are excellent solutions for wet area floor installations, in addition to providing customizable accents for wall and floor applications. Alaska’s terrazzo-look installations can be finished fully with the line’s cove base and bullnose trims.
As a certified porcelain tile product, the collection answers demanding technical requirements for a wide range of applications. The line is responsibly manufactured in the U.S., contains recycled content and is Green Squared certified, making it an appropriate surfacing solution for projects for which sustainability and environmental standards are priorities.
