Debris Series Recycled Tile

Fireclay Tile’s Debris Series Recycled Tile contains more than 60 percent recycled materials. Its unique clay body contains more postindustrial and post-consumer waste than any other tile on the market. The result is a rich terra cotta-colored stone body with a warm red-brown hue that is unique and sustainable.

Highlights

  • Manufactured in northern California, the Debris Series uses all locally sourced recycled materials and California clay.
  • Tile products include waste-contaminated glass from consumer curbside recycling and Bay Area waste granite dust and used sandblasting abrasives.
  • The Debris Series features more than 112 handmade glaze colors with blended options of gloss, matte and engobe (white undercoating used to highlight certain glazes).
  • Sizes range from 1 by 2 to 12 by 12 inches.
  • Surface bullnose, quarter rounds, cove base, sink caps, moldings and stair nosings are available.
  • Can be used in interiors and exteriors in all climates; available for vertical and horizontal surfaces, including in showers and baths.
