* Venetian Mosaic, Azzuro, Sicilian Slate Tile, Alumo and Alu Graf are unavailable as Tongue & Grooved Panels. Venetian Mosaic, Azzuro, Sicilian Slate Tile and Alu Graf square edged panels may need to be cut on site prior to installation to ensure that adjacent panels line up correctly. Due to the inherent properties of Alumo and Alu Graf, these designs could be more prone to scratching and marking during installation and use. Extra care must therefore be taken when using these designs. |
