“It’s not new…but it is unique”. Tsourlakis Tiles.


   A few weeks ago, I spotted the web site of TsourlakisTiles, which I found very interesting and I wanted to share it with you. Tsourlakis Tiles are handmade cement tiles, eco-friendly with 100 years experience in the industry. Their motto “It’s not new…but it is unique”. It’s a company based in Crete Rethymno, founded in 1913 by Tsourlakis Evagelos. It is a family business, since 1996 leader of the company is Evaggelos G. Tsourlakis. 




   They are unique for many reasons; they are handmade cement tiles build one at a time, with a variety of colors. You could choose your favorite from their collections. Those of series Odysseas have dimensions 20 x 20 cm and thickness 1.8 cm.





The series of Artemis are 30 x 30 and its pair is 20 x 20 and thickness 2.5 to 3 cm.






   The series Hexagon are 17 x 17 and thickness around  2 cm. The color is within the material 4 to 6 mil thick that makes it stand in time. Also you have the flexibility to give them your favorite design pattern and they can recreate it, with your favorite choice of colors.  There is no limitation in color, because they use Benjamin Moore Classic palette. They can be applied indoors and outdoors without any strain problem and after a process come to be non-absorbent. 








All tiles are eco-friendly made by natural construction materials and during their fabrication a small portion of energy is needed.
