Tessera Layout & Outline

The plank format of the Layout and Outline platform — 100cm x 25cm, 18 colourways, 580 g/m² at 5.8mm. Because the specification matches the square tiles almost exactly, planks and tiles can be mixed across a floor without a step at the junction.

62% total recycled content and 27 dB impact sound reduction, the best in the Tessera range, with a continuous castor chair rating.

Budget for wastage properly on plank layouts: 10–12% is realistic for ashlar and herringbone against 5–7% for square tiles on a straightforward rectangular floor, and more where there is heavy cutting around columns or fixed furniture.
