The Shen series is an American-made porcelain tile. It masterfully mimics the look of wood with monochromatic tones that evoke the serene essence of stained wood. Perfect for those who seek to infuse their surroundings with a subtle touch of nature. Because this material is a porcelain product, minimal maintenance is required. This series is suitable for residential and commercial applications.
There can be noticeable variances between pieces, so it is important and recommended that a range of this product be viewed before finalizing a purchase. When mixing sizes within a series, shade, texture and calibration differences should be expected. Piece to piece variation in shade or color are inherent in all fired clay products; therefore, it is recommended to mix tiles from several boxes at a time during installation to achieve the best range of color.
For proper bonding, LFT/LHT mortar for large format and heavy tiles should be used when installing tiles with a dimensional length greater than 15 inches, and rectangular shape and plank tile, per industry standards. Proper thinset coverage is also necessary, and in some cases, back buttering of tile may be required.
