Frequently asked questions about Mallorca Opal wall tiles
Can I use this tile outside?
This wall tile is primarily designed for indoor use and has not been specifically tested for the varying weather conditions of the Dutch climate. For outdoor spaces such as patios and cladding, we recommend choosing tiles specifically designed for outdoor use, with proven frost resistance. Our advisors are happy to help you find the right tiles for your outdoor project.
How do I ensure that the opalescent effect is optimal?
The vibrant colors of Mallorca Opal tiles are best displayed in varying light conditions. Ensure good lighting with spotlights that illuminate the wall from different angles. LED lighting with adjustable color temperatures can further enhance the effect. Avoid direct frontal lighting – side and diagonal light accentuates the opalescent character most beautifully.
Can I combine these tiles with other colours from the Mallorca collection?
Absolutely! Mallorca Opal combines beautifully with other colors from the collection. For a subtle effect, you can create transitions to Mallorca White or Natural. For added contrast and character, combinations with Mallorca Grey or Classic work perfectly. The opalescent nature of this tile makes it a perfect bridge between different shades.
Does the opalescent color fade over time?
No, the opalescent effect is an integral part of the ceramic glaze and will not fade with sunlight, cleaning, or normal wear and tear. The high-quality ceramic composition ensures that both the base color and the iridescence will be retained for years. However, it is important to clean the tiles regularly to prevent limescale or soap residue, which can dim the play of light.
What grout color do you recommend for these opal tiles?
For Mallorca Opal tiles, we recommend a very light, almost white grout that won't disrupt the color palette. A light gray or pearly white grout emphasizes the Mediterranean look without distracting from the opalescent effect. Avoid dark grout, which creates too much contrast and could overpower the subtle color palette.
