Marca Corona Arkigeo | Italian Inkjet Full-Body Porcelain Tile
Arkigeo draws inspiration from the beauty that the Earth patiently creates through the long cycles of geological time. Born from the combination of shells, sedimentary layers, and subtle veins, the forces of nature create limestone as an intricate palette of sands in harmonious and naturalistic shades. The final look is organic and the color palette is balanced and serene. We are stocking the 12x24, 24x48, and 3“ Hexagon. There is also a Decorative in 12x24 and 3" Hex called Patina that coordinates with all 6 colors.

Please Note
It’s never advisable to select tile from images alone, especially when viewed on a screen since they can look different on different kinds of screens. Pictures are provided to give an idea of the look and variation. Colors are intended as a guide only and may vary from actual tile. Sizes listed are nominal. Please check samples before making final selection and to get actual dimensions for layout.
Trim
The surface bullnose is made from field tile that is cut, ground and reglazed.
Patina Deco
The Patina Deco has a metallic look with abstract patterns that resemble tapestries woven in wire that come alive over time as the oxidation process alters the metal surface. It is a decorative with great scenic impact that is both dramatic and accessible.
Note: The 12 x 24 Patina is cut from a larger size. It may be a slightly different size and thickness from field tile.

Usage & Installation
Arkigeo is suitable for both residential and commercial installations.
To attain the proper mix of graphics and color it is important to pull from multiple boxes during installation, rotate pieces, and note the placement of the different images to get the proper final blend.
Most tile manufacturers recommend a maximum offset of 8” (20 cm) on all large format tiles when setting a running bond. Please refer to ANSI requirements for setting large format tiles, ANSI A 108.2 section 4.3.8. Using a leveling system can improve the installation of this product.
As noted in the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) the coefficient of friction varies considerably due to facts not under the control of entities such as the manufacturers and distributors. These factors include, but are not limited to, contaminants, slope of terrain, drainage conditions, adjacent surfaces, etc. Suitability for any installation can only be determined by a site examination of all conditions that could affect the slip resistance of the tile being installed. Continual cleaning and maintenance must be performed once the tile has been installed.
