Note : Colours shown are as accurate as the limitations of the printing process will allow. Prospective customers are advised to inspect a sample of the tile before without prior notice. Sometimes variations in shade or size being inherent to ceramic industry may occur. Before fixing, we advice you to follow the fixing ordering. Every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the information given. However, the company reserves the right to change the specifications instruction on the cartons of the tiles as no responsibility can be accepted by the company once the tiles have been fixed.
