Kitchen tile planning

Compare tile samples with the cabinets and worktop. Specify the kitchen floor, wall or splashback separately when requesting product details.

Before you choose

Planning tiles for kitchens

Choose the floor, wall and splashback separately. Worktops need their own product and fabrication checks; a kitchen room label does not cover that use.

Prepare a project brief

Look beside the cabinets

Compare samples against doors, worktop material and wall colour. View the tile under both task lighting and daylight, and review more than one face if variation or veining is important to the design.

Separate floor and wall requirements

For floors, describe foot traffic, likely spills and the cleaning routine. For walls and splashbacks, identify the substrate and nearby appliances. Ask the project team to determine the relevant performance and installation requirements.

Plan around fixed details

Mark cabinet lines, appliance openings, corners and thresholds before choosing a format. Confirm actual dimensions and cut positions with the installer. A 750 × 1500 or 800 × 1350 mm catalogue size alone does not settle the final layout.

Models to consider

Before specification

Which model is listed for kitchens?

Delga Grey A8135C2521-L is listed for kitchens. Confirm the specification for your wall or floor; countertop use is not established by that listing.

Can I use these tiles as a worktop?

Do not infer worktop suitability from a room photo or collection name. Ask about the exact product, fabrication details, substrate, heat exposure and intended use before making that decision.
