AN Dolomite Supreme Matte 12 x 24 Porcelain Tile

Product Overview

Elysium AN Dolomite Supreme 12" x 24" Matte Porcelain Tile captures the graceful character of premium white dolomite marble in a durable, low-maintenance porcelain surface. Its soft white background and delicate gray veining create an elegant stone-inspired appearance suited to contemporary, transitional, and classic interiors.

Advanced inkjet printing produces approximately 8–10 distinct graphic faces, providing subtle movement without overwhelming the space. The understated matte finish reduces glare and gives floors and walls a smooth, sophisticated appearance.

Rectified edges support clean alignment and narrow, consistent grout joints. With a PEI 4 durability rating, this tile is suitable for residential interiors as well as medium-commercial and light-institutional applications.

Technical Specifications

Installation and Handling Guidelines

Important: This is marble-look porcelain—not genuine dolomite or natural marble. The tile surface does not require natural-stone sealing or specialized moisture-sensitive stone mortar.

• Inspect the material before installation and blend tiles from several cartons to distribute the available graphic faces evenly.

• Install over a flat, clean, stable, and properly prepared substrate.

• Use a polymer-modified mortar meeting ANSI A118.4 or A118.15 and approved for large-format porcelain tile.

• White mortar may be preferred beneath this light-colored product, particularly where cut edges or transitions could reveal the setting material.

• Directionally trowel the mortar and back-butter tiles when necessary.

• Obtain at least 80% mortar coverage in dry interior areas and 95% coverage in wet locations.

• Use tile-leveling clips where appropriate to help control lippage.

• For offset installations, limit the running-bond offset to no more than 33% unless the tiles have been evaluated and the installer approves another layout.

• Rectified edges permit narrow joints, but the final grout width must accommodate actual tile dimensions, substrate conditions, and applicable installation standards.

• Install shower applications over a complete waterproofing system. Porcelain tile and grout do not replace waterproofing.

• Include perimeter and field movement joints according to TCNA EJ171 and applicable building requirements.

• Wet-cut with a suitable diamond blade and use appropriate protection against respirable crystalline-silica dust.

• Order approximately 10–15% additional material for cuts, layout adjustment, breakage, and future repairs.

Care and Maintenance

• Clean regularly with warm water and a neutral-pH porcelain tile cleaner.

• Use a soft cloth, microfiber mop, or non-abrasive nylon brush.

• Remove detergent residue thoroughly to prevent surface film.

• Avoid waxes, oily soaps, and cleaners that leave a slippery coating.

• The porcelain surface normally does not require sealing.

• Cement-based grout may benefit from sealing according to the grout manufacturer’s instructions.

• Protect floors from construction debris, metal shavings, and abrasive grit during installation and remodeling.
