Architectural Tile Specification

Collinson Ceramics provides architectural tile specification support for commercial and residential projects. We help architects and specifiers identify porcelain and ceramic tiles that align with the design intent, required format, finish, slip-resistance needs, availability and installation considerations.

Architectural tile specification support

  • Porcelain and ceramic floor and wall tile selection.
  • Large-format, small-format, modular, decorative and specialist surface options.
  • PTV 36+ and other slip-resistant finish options for appropriate environments.
  • Samples and showroom review in Edinburgh, Dundee and Inverness.
  • Product sourcing through established European manufacturer relationships.
  • Bespoke fabrication and manufacturing options where a standard product is unsuitable.

Information for better product decisions

Product suitability depends on the exact variant, intended location, substrate, expected traffic, contamination risk and cleaning regime. We can help identify relevant ranges and manufacturer information, but the final specification should be confirmed against the individual technical data and project requirements.

Common specification questions

Can you help source a product outside the online range?

Yes. The website shows a selected proportion of the products available through our manufacturer network. Share the design criteria or reference material and we can investigate alternatives.

Do you supply PTV 36+ tiles?

Yes. A number of ranges include PTV 36+ variants. Confirm whether the recorded result applies to shod, barefoot, dry or wet test conditions before specifying the product.

Can products be viewed or sampled?

Yes. Contact the team about samples or visit our Edinburgh, Dundee or Inverness showrooms to compare larger displays.

Do you support commercial projects?

Yes. We have experience supplying hospitality, retail and other large-scale commercial and residential projects.
