Kerion Neocim | Portuguese Porcelain Tile
Neocim or “new cement” is a collection that recreates traditional encaustic cement tiles in porcelain. The designs are distinctive, yet classic and have a pristine white base color. They can be used as accents or even medallions, but look best when installed in entire areas. The result is the extraordinarily beautiful look of decorative cement tiles, but with all the advantages of porcelain – reduced thickness, ease of installation and maintenance, resistance to staining, and more – making this look accessible for many applications where cement tiles would not be suitable or practical.

Usage & Installation
Suitable for walls and floors including residential and light to moderate commercial use (depending on the color). Please note that some patterns are complete within a single piece of tile while others need four tiles to complete each pattern. For the designs that require four pieces (Décor Branche Mer, Classic A Noir and Classic C Noir)care should be taken during installation to make sure the tiles are correctly placed to achieve the desired final look. The minimum recommended grout joint is 3/32”. Please note that the material is non-rectified. If using more than one item together (i.e. field and decos), please check the caliber and be aware that you may have to adjust the size of the grout joint to make your pattern work.
Coordinating Trim
If trim pieces are needed, the following items might be good options:
• LATO1M/PB112
• LATO1M/A108
Coordinating trims should be presented with an understanding that there will not be a perfect match and there may be some variation from production run to production run.
As noted in the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) the coefficient of friction varies considerably due to facts not under the control of entities such as the manufacturers and distributors. These factors include, but are not limited to, contaminants, slope of terrain, drainage conditions, adjacent surfaces, etc. Suitability for any installation can only be determined by a site examination of all conditions that could affect the slip resistance of the tile being installed. Continual cleaning and maintenance must be performed once the tile has been installed.
