8.12.14 | Dallas, TX | Concept Surfaces, an exclusive importer of high-quality, hard-surface materials based in Dallas, Texas, offers an unparalleled selection of porcelain tiles, glass mosaics, hardwoods and luxury vinyls. Concept Surfaces is excited to announce the addition of Icon porcelain tiles to its growing inventory of diverse tile options. Exclusive to Concept Surfaces, Icon is now available in a unique, proprietary hexagonal shape. 

Concept Surfaces worked in collaboration with its factory in Italy to design this one-of-a-kind hexagonal shape. The hexagon shape, available in a 24” x 24” size, boasts sophistication and innovation, while being one of the first of its kind. The shape was created to inspire unique designs and applications, and because of its pre-cut shape, installers can achieve distinct patterns without the hassle and cost of field cutting. Because it is produced from a 24” x 24” format, it can be installed with a standard 12” x 24” or 24” x 24”, which allows installers to easily line up grout joints. In addition to the hexagon shape, Icon is available in a variety of square and rectangular sizes. 

Icon, with its concrete appearance, can be used on floors and walls, making it extremely versatile and suitable for any installation. This tile has an extremely high resistance to stains and is non-porous, which contributes to the minimal maintenance required. Icon porcelain tile lasts longer than other hard surface materials and will not likely need to be replaced for decades, making it ideal for both commercial and residential use. 

In addition to floors and walls, Icon can be used in many different applications such as pools, showers, exterior walls and countertops. Icon is available in five different hues including bone white, dove gray, gun powder, taupe back and jet black, with the option of a grip or naturale finish. The grip finish offers the same aesthetic, but with a slightly textured finish that is comparable to a light sand paper. The advantage this presents is the additional coefficient of friction (COF), allowing the tile to be used in outdoor applications. 

“We have long-awaited the Icon collection, especially our exclusive hexagonal shape, and we are thrilled to offer it to designers and architects. Icon tiles are durable, low-maintenance and complement any design. This new product launch and collaborative creation represents our effort to stay current with emerging trends and continue to offer a diverse product selection to our clients,” said Concept Surfaces President and CEO Geoffrey Gross.
