Description

Living Concrete offers a diverse range of GRC (Glass Reinforced Concrete) High-Performance Floor Tiles that are suitable for both interior and exterior applications, making them ideal for a wide variety of commercial environments such as showrooms, offices, retail spaces, hospitality venues, and educational institutions.


Our floor tiles are proudly manufactured in the UK, ensuring a low environmental impact through the use of locally sourced raw materials. Living Concrete is committed to sustainability, as reflected in our Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) and ISO 14001 Environmental Management System certifications. These credentials highlight our dedication to environmentally responsible practices.


Thanks to the natural fire resistance of concrete, our floor tiles hold an A1 fire rating, classifying them as non-combustible and ensuring they contribute no fuel to the spread of fire. Designed for durability and longevity, all Living Concrete GRC floor tiles are crafted from premium materials and are available in a wide variety of colours and finishes to meet the demands of any architectural or design project.


Features and benefits:

  • Large format, ultra-thin tiles with high strength.
  • High mechanical resistance and UV stability.
  • Available in different finishes and colours.
  • Fully recyclable, and manufactured from natural materials.
  • Good thermal conductivity.
  • Available in bespoke sizes and finishes.
  • Provides an alternative to poured, polished concrete.
  • Fast installation.
  • Easy to maintain.
  • CE marked.


Recommended adhesives/ fixings:

  • Mapei Keraquick S2 adhesive mixed with Latex Plus Admix and Mapei flexible grout suitable for use with 10 mm trowel. Installation should be made with a double layer (smooth trowel on the tile and 10 mm notched trowel on the floor). Grout: Mapei flexible grout or other good quality tile grout.
  • Use Ditra Mat underlay where there is a risk of surface movement, e.g. with the application of new concrete screeds.
  • Grout: Mapei flexible grout or other good quality tile grout.
