Description
Carrara Slim Ceramic Subway Tile is a timeless classic, bringing a sensational marble-effect glazed finish to walls without the cost or weight of genuine natural stone. Its gloss surface captures the veined, luminous character associated with Carrara marble, making it a suitable choice for anyone wanting that classic aesthetic in a durable, easier-to-maintain ceramic tile.
At 300mm x 75mm, it sits in a slimline proportion narrower than a standard 300 x 100mm subway tile, giving a distinctly different laying rhythm across a wall — a tighter, more refined pattern that suits both traditional running bond layouts and more contemporary vertical stack arrangements. That slimline format complements the classic marble-effect finish, together giving a genuinely elegant result on either a bathroom or kitchen wall.
Coverage works out to approximately 43 tiles per square metre given its narrower proportion, so ordering to the nearest whole square metre with a reasonable allowance for cuts keeps a project properly supplied.
Because Carrara-style marble patterning is a genuinely enduring design choice, Carrara Slim suits both a full renovation and a smaller feature update, such as retiling a single splashback or shower niche without needing to match an existing floor. Its ceramic construction also keeps it considerably more affordable and easier to handle on site than genuine natural marble while delivering a very similar visual result.
Its slimline dimensions also make it a practical choice for feature strips, niches or borders within a larger tiling scheme, where a standard-width tile might dominate the space more than intended. Its glazed surface is also easy to keep clean, wiping free of everyday splashes without the extra care genuine natural marble requires.
