Satin Effect Tiles

When you can’t decide between the shine of gloss and the softness of matt, satin effect tiles are the perfect middle ground. With a gentle sheen, they reflect just enough light to keep a room feeling bright, while avoiding the glare that comes with polished surfaces. This finish brings a modern, elegant look that works beautifully across both wall tiles and floor tiles, making satin a popular choice for bathrooms, kitchens, and open-plan living areas.

Why Choose Satin Tiles?

Satin tiles give you the best of both worlds. On the practical side, their surface is easier to clean than matt tiles and less prone to showing streaks than high gloss. On the design side, satin finishes feel smooth and refined, adding depth without overpowering a room. They’re also available in a wide variety of styles, from stone effect tiles to marble effect tiles and wood effect tiles, so you can bring the look you love into any space.
