Winckelmans is a family-owned tile manufacture based in Lomme, France who have been innovating and manufacturing robust porcelain tiles since 1894. Four generations have followed the great Théophile Winckelmans, continuing his legacy and supplying beautiful mosaic tiles to customers looking for a stylish, traditional aesthetic for their property.
Now employing over 120 people, their workforce is fully dedicated to ensuring their company innovates with new technologies and techniques to increase product customisation and quality for you, the customer, but remaining true to traditional qualities and authenticity.
All Winckelmans tiles are manufactured using local, natural materials (primarily clay) and double fired at 1,200 degrees, making them extremely durable and compact with outstanding technical specifications, the most important of which is a near-zero porosity (or fully vitrified). Non-porous means the tiles have little to no holes on the surface, blocking all liquid and air from passing through which, over time, would cause damage to the material and fade the colour and style on the tile.
Because they are fully vitrified, Winckelmans tiles are perfect for interior (and exterior) use in residential and commercial properties, intensive, chaotic areas of industrial properties as well as damp or wet locations such as swimming pools.
You can benefit from no appearance changes on your tiles and expect their colour to last for many years. They are also heat and frost resistant, making them suitable for exterior use in your property in either extremely dry or humid conditions.
Thanks to their near-zero porosity, stain resistance and absorption rate of under 0.5%, Winckelmans tiles are very easy to maintain without using specialist cleaning products and techniques. You will not need to invest in any post-installation treatments or services once a tiler has laid your tiles.
All Winckelmans tiles incorporate through-body colours which ensure lasting patterns and shades, providing you with centuries of beautiful colours for your property.
