MALTESE
Glazed Porcelain
Floor & Wall Tile
M A L T E S E
B Y MalteseDP is the newest floor and wall collection by Florida Tile. Inspired by a traditional limestone look, with small characteristic
pits and slight veining but with our own unique twist. Using Florida Tile’s proprietary DP-Digital Printing technology we are able to
create a superior natural stone look with the high shade variation and graphic resolution far beyond previous applications.
With a nod to the modernist style of mid-century American designers like Phillip Johnson and Charles Eames, the minimalistic yet
warm aesthetics of the MalteseDP make it the perfect backdrop for the style conscious. A versatile line, at home in a midwestern
suburb, bank lobby, or boutique hotel the elegant look of limestone coordinates so well with any style.
Three earthy colors are delivered in a smooth natural finish for the porcelain floor tiles and ceramic wall. Decorative accents include
an arabesque styled listello, M12 mosaic and full floor and wall bullnose package.
With the exception of select trim, decorative and ceramic pieces, this product line is Made in the USA of 40% pre-consumer recycled
content, is GREENGUARD Certified and Porcelain Tile Certified, and meets the new DCOF AcuTest requirements to be installed in
wet areas.

Digital Porcelain by Florida Tile utilizes the most technically advanced glazing system in the industry today, digital printing. Like
the technology that changed the television industry, Digital Printing on ceramic and porcelain brings you the most realistic image
possible, except it is on a tile.
Like any digital image, the graphics on tiles are made up of millions of small dots of color; higher the quantity and smaller the dots,
the higher the definition. While this concept is simple in theory, it has taken decades of painstaking work to bring the technology
from the research and development laboratories to the production line. Continuing to be an innovator in the industry, Florida Tile
was the first manufacturer to use this technology in the United States.
