Hi-Wood Almond Polished
Why Antique Linen: Picked to read as warm against this tile's brown.Ask your tiler for Ultracolor Plus 132 (Mapei) or Fugabella Color 05 (Kerakoll).
Warm tiles want warm walls. Anything with blue undertones reads cold next to travertine.
- 45° Mitre — Two tiles cut at 45° and butted together. No metal, no plastic. Crisp.
- Pencil bullnose — A separately-fired pencil rail in the matching tile finish, sat on the cut edge.
- Schlüter JOLLY — PVC, anodised aluminium, or brushed brass L-profile that caps the cut tile edge.
- Schlüter RONDEC — Quarter-round metal trim that turns the corner with a soft rolled edge.
- Schlüter SCHIENE — Right-angle metal edge that finishes a tile where it meets a different material.
Where the tiled floor meets timber, carpet, or vinyl, SCHIENE gives a flush, durable transition.
Ask your tiler for Schlüter SCHIENE (AC / ACGB).
Hi-wood is inspired by wood but creates a new mixture containing both rustic and contemporary impulses that perfectly lend themselves for composing surfaces with a broad sense of balance and symmetry. Its discreet elegance is sublimely expressed in the gloss finish. This collection is kept deliberately small and functional: it comes in four colours, a single size, and two surface finishes. Fresh and snappy, it has a formal severity that allows these tiles to be easily adapted.

What you’re really specifying
The material
Porcelain is fired denser and harder than ordinary ceramic — low water absorption, high resistance to scratching and frost, and colour that runs through a rectified, dimensionally exact body. It is the workhorse of a modern Australian home.
A timber look — honestly
This tile is porcelain, not natural timber. The timber look is printed and textured onto a porcelain body, which means you get the appearance of timber with the durability, consistency and low maintenance of porcelain — no sealing, no soft spots, no surprises in a wet area.
The finish
A polished finish mirrors light to make a space feel larger and more formal. Best kept to lower-traffic or dry zones where the shine stays pristine.
The format
At 1200 × 200mm this is a large-format tile — fewer grout lines, a calmer, more continuous surface, and a sense of scale that smaller tiles can't give. Worth flagging to your tiler, as large formats need a flat substrate and the right adhesive.
The colour
Tonally this sits in the brown family. Light changes everything with tile, so order a sample and live with it on your wall or floor across a day before you commit — what reads warm at 9am can read cool by dusk.

Reviews
The sample pack changed our spec
We were stuck on bathroom marble for a month. Three samples landed in 48 hours, we lined them up against the cabinetry, picked one that night. Couldn't have done it from a website photo.
Trade pricing actually competitive
I've used five tile suppliers across builds. Marmoré's net pricing held up against the bigger names without the showroom theatre. Spec sheets are usable too.
Fast spec, calm process
The curation is the win. Less wading through 4,000 SKUs, more time on the actual brief. The 30-minute consultation is gold for a tight deadline.

Three to spec next to this
Hi-Wood Walnut Matt
“Same 1200×200 plank format pairs seamlessly; matte finish adds tonal contrast to the polished Almond.”
Albion Gloss Mocha
“200mm-wide plank profile echoes the seed tile's format, polished finish aligns, deeper mocha grounds the Almon”
Belluno Mocha Lappato
“Lappato finish and warm brown tone complement the polished Almond; 600×300 works well as a feature floor break”
