Product Description
Kandla grey porcelain paving recreates the highly sought after tones of traditional Indian stone within a high performance vitrified ceramic tile. If you want the authentic look of natural stone but demand a surface that requires absolutely zero maintenance, this is your perfect solution.
Often specified by landscape contractors as Kandla grey porcelain tiles or premium stone effect porcelain, this range serves as the ultimate modern replacement for natural Kandla Grey Sandstone Paving. Stocked exclusively for the UK market, our Kandla grey outdoor porcelain paving provides a refined and completely weather proof finish for residential patios, pathways, and commercial landscaping projects.
What is Kandla Grey Porcelain?
This product is a through body vitrified ceramic. It is fired in kilns at temperatures exceeding 1,200 degrees Celsius in a process known as vitrification. This extreme engineering creates a tile with a water absorption rate of less than 0.5 percent, making it 100 percent frost proof for harsh British winters.
It is manufactured with precision rectified edges to allow for ultra tight 3mm grout joints, giving your patio a seamless, modern finish. For safety, the surface is stamped with a certified R11 slip rating and meets HSE guidelines with a PTV 36+ score. The highly popular Kandla grey porcelain paving slabs 900 x 600 format provides a clean, expansive look for any outdoor space. If your client prefers a flat, minimalist concrete aesthetic instead of a natural stone texture, you can also explore our smooth County LGY Porcelain Paving.
Contractor and Specifier Note
Because this vitrified porcelain has a porosity rate of less than 0.5 percent, it will not bond to a standard sand and cement mortar bed. To meet BS 7533 installation standards, contractors must apply a polymer modified SBR slurry primer to the back of every single tile before laying. This guarantees a permanent, solid bond that will not lift or shift over time.
Kandla Grey Porcelain vs. Natural Sandstone
Most property owners love the look of natural stone, but natural rock is porous. It absorbs rainwater, requires chemical sealing, and often turns green with algae in the damp UK climate. Unlike the natural alternative, Kandla grey smooth porcelain will never rust, never grow black spot lichen, and features absolutely zero colour fade. You get the exact aesthetic of real rock without any of the seasonal maintenance. For a deeper dive into these material differences, read our full Porcelain vs Sandstone Paving UK guide.

Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes are available for Kandla grey porcelain paving?
Our Kandla grey porcelain is available in four versatile formats: 600x900mm, 900x600mm, 800x800mm, and 600x600mm. Every size features a heavy duty 20mm thickness designed specifically for outdoor UK installations.
Is Kandla grey outdoor porcelain paving suitable for UK winters?
Yes. Because Kandla grey porcelain undergoes complete vitrification, it has a water absorption rate below 0.5 percent. This means moisture cannot penetrate the tile, making it completely frost proof and safe from winter freezing and cracking.
Is Kandla grey porcelain better than natural grey patio slabs?
If you want zero maintenance, yes. Kandla grey porcelain tiles do not require chemical sealing, they will never fade in direct sunlight, and they actively resist algae and moss growth. Natural sandstone patio slabs offer beautiful natural variations but demand regular chemical sealing and pressure washing.
Are Kandla grey porcelain paving slabs safe when wet?
Absolutely. Our stone effect porcelain features a certified R11 anti slip surface texture. This achieves a PTV 36+ rating, providing a highly dependable and safe grip underfoot that easily meets the safety requirements for wet British weather.
Can I order a sample of Kandla grey porcelain paving slabs 900 x 600?
Yes. We highly recommend ordering a free sample through our website so you can inspect the high quality finish, precision rectified edges, and true colour tone of our Kandla grey smooth porcelain before placing a full order.
