Now, the new Olvera Collection has arrived on the scene and is making a splash among professional designers and homeowners.

The Olvera Collection is Eco-Friendly

We live in a green world, and it’s getting greener by the day. People want to add value to an area while being environmentally responsible. The Olvera Collection, like many cement tiles, is an eco-friendly tiling option.

Encaustic cement tiles are long-lasting, use materials straight from nature, and do not contaminate the environment with chemicals. They are sun-dried, and the water from production can be recycled, as can the molds. The molds themselves are made from sand, soapstone, and limestone.

It Comes in a Wide Range of Styles, Colors, and Patterns

The Olvera collection comes in 8 primary categories:

  • Squares
  • Rectangles
  • Hexagons
  • Octagons
  • Interlocking
  • Diamonds and Triangle
  • Arabesque
  • Other shapes  

Each group also comes in a range of patterns, with 68 possible combinations in 29 color options each. Textures include smooth, limestone, and vecchio. That’s a massive selection of styles for your space!

It’s Encaustic Cement Tile

Encaustic cement tile carries a vast range of benefits. First, it’s long-lasting and can handle heavy wear and tear. You can use these tiles for footpaths, floor tiling, accent pieces, backsplashes, walls, and much more. It’s very low maintenance when properly installed and sealed and can be cleaned with non-abrasive, gentle cleaners. The color will never fade because it’s neither painted nor dyed, but hand-poured.
