ATLAS CONCORDE introduces Arbor and Nash, two wood-effect porcelain-tile collections that combine the timeless look and natural charm of authentic wood floorboards with the advantages of ceramic tiles.
The timeless appeal of oak flooring is replicated in porcelain tiles that bring a sense of authenticity and character to contemporary interiors

×Wooden flooring has a unique character and timeless aesthetic that makes it consistently popular for all kinds of interior projects. In some scenarios, however, natural wood is simply not a suitable flooring option. As an alternative to timber floorboards, Atlas Concorde has developed two collections of wood-effect tiles that combine the natural appearance of wood with the practical advantages of ceramic tiles.
The detailed tones and textures of natural oak create a powerful visual impact when used alongside stone or concrete-effect finishes
The Arbor collection recalls the natural charm of oak – one of the most popular and versatile choices for wooden floors. Available in five shades and a variety of patterns, the tiles offer a range of options suitable for use in different contexts. In addition to tiles that reproduce the knots and grain of unique planks, a series of three-dimensional, tobacco-coloured wall tiles that evoke stacked boards introduce a textural dimension.
Inspired by wood that has aged over time, the Nash collection combines an industrial appearance with an earthy feel

×On the other side, the Nash collection is inspired by wood that has aged over time. The distinctive surfaces combine an industrial appearance with an earthy feel. The result is a product suitable for use in environments that merge a contemporary character with a natural authenticity. The tiles come in five shades and two classic flooring patterns – chevron and tatami – that can be used to bring a modern and industrial spirit to contemporary residential or commercial projects.
As with many of Atlas Concorde’s pioneering flooring solutions, both collections are available in non-slip outdoor versions. This allows the cosy feel of wooden flooring to extend seamlessly between interior and exterior spaces, offering a robust and hygienic solution for a wide variety of usage scenarios.
