Despite the recent difficulties faced over the past few months, the team here at PrimaPorcelain are extremely excited and proud to share the latest updates regarding our project with former English Premier League Champions, Leicester City Football Club! The Foxes have been hard at work over the last year building their state-of-the-art, £100m training complex which is set to be completed for the start of the next Premier League campaign and progress over the last few months has really started to pick up. 

PrimaPorcelain has helped in the creation of the new Seagrave training ground by supplying over 600 square metres of our gorgeous Concrete Silver porcelain paving which is being installed within the players' hydrotherapy garden and courtyard terraces located in the main building. The porcelain tiles are being installed on top of our adjustable, self-levelling support pedestals, which have contributed to the quick turnaround and progress on-site. 

Take a look at some of the fantastic images coming out from the training ground below:

As well as high-quality porcelain paving and tiles, our sister company TimberTechUK have also supplied Leicester City with more than 500 square metres of their EasyClean Terrain+ Silver Maple composite decking, which is being installed on balconies of the main, centrepiece building.

From today (1 June 2020), the UK government is relaxing the COVID-19 lockdown rules and allowing people in England to meet outdoors in groups of 6 or less.

It doesn't matter where you and your friends meet as long as it's outdoors, so if you don't want to go to the park, you may invite people to gather in your back garden.

IMPORTANT: When spending time with people from other households, be sure to follow social distancing guidelines and stay at least 2 metres from anyone you don't live with.

On Monday 23 March, UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson addressed the nation (full transcript here) and urged us to stay at home in order to slow the spread of COVID-19.

The days since then have mostly been warm and sunny, but instead of going to the seaside or congregating in local parks, conscientious homeowners have been forced to make the most of their own back gardens and patios.

Am I allowed to go out on the patio?

Yes - the current coronavirus guidelines state that you should only go out in public if it's absolutely essential (e.g. if you need to provide care for somebody or purchase basic necessities), but you're free to enjoy your own private outdoor space as long as you don't go within 2 metres of anyone from a different household.

This means that you can still tend to your garden, have a kickabout with the kids, or sit in your favourite lounger and soak up the sunshine.

With the new decade on the horizon, many homeowners can take the opportunity to give their home the redesign it’s been crying out for over the last 10 years! To give you the inspiration that you and your home needs, we take a look at the tile colour trends sure to be a hit throughout 2020.

Now, before we jump in, we need to take a quick look back at 2019 and some of the things that made the past 12 months such a good year for tiles, that may find themselves performing highly once again in 2020.

The main standout here is ‘extreme colours.’ In 2019, we saw lights get lighter and darks get darker. A trend that we can definitely see continuing going into the new year. However, as homeowners are increasingly using flooring to set the tone and feel of their homes, a wider range of colours will start to creep back into the limelight.

So, without further ado, let’s take a look at the top 2020 tile flooring colour trends!

Grey Tiles

Before you say it before you even think it. We know, grey again. A colour you’ve seen included in any tile trends blog for the last five years. But if we look at what the word trend actually means, you can see just why it’s been a mainstay when it comes to the hottest tile colours. Ultimately, the word ‘trend’ means popular and relevant. And with grey tiles still amongst the top choices for homeowners, its place within our list is justified.

Grey flooring has grown significantly popular over the last decade, with many homeowners opting for grey stone look tiles in their kitchen. But it’s not just floors which are getting the grey treatment, everything in the home is. Beds, sofas, walls and furniture are nowadays taking on the grey storm head-on, so what better way to complement the rest of your home than with a tiled floor to match? The ultimate choice for a cool, contemporary home.

White Tiles

Throughout 2020, we’re certain you’ll find more and more homeowners opting for a whitewashed look when it comes to their floor, offering a calm, relaxed vibe to a variety of living spaces. Whitewashed tile floors typically display the appearance of wear with darker colours creeping out from underneath. This style fits right in with the 2020 aged and worn trends found across all styles of flooring.

The benefits that a whitewashed floor brings is a brighter, bigger and more relaxed living space. It can really give your home that ‘beachy’ feel or an upscale, modern look with the right furniture to complement.

Another huge hit we expect to continue into next year is the addition of bright white tiles in the home, conforming to the popular contrast theme where homeowners utilise lights against darks. The marble-look tile is going to be a very popular look, particularly in kitchens and bathrooms.

Cream Tiles

For many years, lighter floors were deemed outdated or not premium enough, a view which is no longer the case. As more and more homeowners embrace the light, airy look in their home, you’re going to see a massive resurgence in cream-look floors. Especially for those homeowners looking to achieve a timeless-themed design. With cream-look tiles, your decoration options are endless. You can opt for a chic, modern feel or a rustic, homey vibe. All on the same floor! Homeowners are now moving away from sharper, contemporary, industrial looks and heading towards an updated farmhouse style – cream floors are perfect for this.

It’s been a little while since we’ve introduced any new designs to our collection of outdoor porcelain pavers…so we’re undoubtedly overdue a few additions.

Well, wait no longer Britain, because we’re pleased to announce we are doing exactly that!

But we’re not just adding a new design or two to our comprehensive catalogue of tiles – we’re introducing a whole new range of high-spec outdoor pavers for you to choose from!

Say "hello" to PavingPlus – the latest member of the PrimaPorcelain family.

Paving the Way

Deliberately textured for superior grip and underfoot traction, these rectified outdoor tiles are both practically durable and aesthetically beautiful.

Available in four unique styles and nine sumptuous shades of colour, PavingPlus brings style and finesse to your outdoor space without breaking the bank to get there.

National Pride

Unlike our previous designs, the new PavingPlus range is characterised by a strong sense of British personality. Each individual design shares its name with an English location: namely Clifton, Bodmin, Richmond and Cotswold.

Named for these local sites of understated charm, the range has a humble sense of domestic patriotism that contrasts our Mediterranean ranges nicely, providing complementary variety and diversity to our overall collection.

Get a Grip

One of the most impressive features of the new PavingPlus range is its outstanding grip. Deliberately textured for superior underfoot traction, the entire range is designed to provide a firm footing for the user, whatever the conditions may be.

The Clifton, Bodmin and Richmond ranges all feature an impressive grip factor rating of 4/5, while the Cotswold range boasts an even more impressive rating of 5/5 for traction.

Variety Show

Each of the Clifton, Bodmin and Richmond designs feature a Shade Variation of V3. This translates to a moderate variegated pattern from tile to tile, providing a subtle yet stunning authenticity to each porcelain paver.

Meanwhile, much like the Grip Factor, the Shade Variation of the Cotswold range is slightly higher at V4, providing a tonal variation that not only provides a beautiful design but also adds to the authentic realism of the stone-look aesthetic making it virtually indistinguishable.

Budget-Friendly

While the design is captivating, the features are appealing and the personality is wholly pleasing, perhaps the most attractive characteristic of the new PavingPlus range is the price.

As one of the most economical products in our entire collection, the PavingPlus range is wonderfully affordable, favourably priced in our lower-end price bands.

Successfully combining such quality practical attributes with a more than reasonable price makes the PavingPlus range a rare breed of product and a welcome addition to any home – especially yours!

Don’t take our word for it – head on down to your local PrimaPorcelain showroom to check out this wonderful new range live and in living colour. Alternatively, why not order a FREE sample today and see for yourself? Click the button below and get in touch today!
