The tiles bleach-clean easily, which matters in kitchens, staff areas and anywhere spills need fast action. Colour fastness to shampoo and light is assured to grade 4 minimum, so routine cleaning and sunlight won’t fade Sandy Beige.

Where it works

Academy tiles suit education and training environments, open-plan offices, hospitality foyers, and healthcare corridors. The modular format lets you replace individual tiles if needed and fits underfloor heating systems.

Looking after it

Vacuum weekly and shampoo quarterly or as needed. Bleach-based cleaners work without affecting the colour. The tiles recover from static and dynamic loading, and pass castor chair testing for continuous use, so trolleys and furniture wheels won’t mark the surface. Burmatex reco2very takes back used tiles for recycling, offering a no-landfill end-of-life option.
