Introducing the Nagi tile collection from INAX, a true celebration of serene beauty inspired by the calm, unbroken stillness of wave-free seas. Reflecting the meaning of Nagi a tranquil state of the ocean each tile in this collection captures the essence of peaceful elegance, blending modern aesthetics with the precision and artistry of traditional Japanese craftsmanship.

Handcrafted by master ceramicists, the Nagi tiles are created from premium porcelain ceramic and enhanced by the ancient Yohen glazing technique. This intricate glazing process creates a captivating, multidimensional surface that reveals delicate color transitions, subtle variations, and refined depth. Each tile’s surface radiates an ethereal richness that shifts gently with light, imbuing spaces with a dynamic, almost meditative quality.

Characterized by a slender, rectangular form, the Nagi tiles are ideal for creating sophisticated linear patterns, whether arranged vertically to add height or horizontally to convey calm continuity. The collection offers both glossy and matte finishes, encompassing a range of serene, cool shades and earthy neutrals that provide a versatile palette for diverse design styles. The tiles’ delicately speckled surfaces and fine textures enhance their natural allure, adding layers of visual interest that bring warmth and an artisanal touch without overpowering the aesthetic.

With their understated elegance and timeless appeal, Nagi tiles are perfect for transforming both residential and commercial interiors into tranquil, refined sanctuaries. The harmonious blend of the Yohen glaze’s subtle beauty and the minimalist, elongated shape of each tile creates an atmosphere of balance and peace. These tiles do more than decorate; they tell a story of Japanese artistry and mastery, making each installation a masterpiece that speaks to serenity, sophistication, and enduring craftsmanship.

Nagi is supplied on sheets of 12 tiles, 222x22mm each,  making it easy to install.

Superclean Grout is an Anti-Mould Grout from master ceramicists, INAX of Japan.

This grout has been developed to exceed the exacting demands for cleanliness and hygiene of the Japanese people.

Moisture and dirt penetrate into conventional cement grout, causing mould growth on the surface. Superclean Grout transforms the property of grout particles to hydrophobic, dramatically reducing the penetration of moisture into the grout and preventing the grout from holding dirt and growing mould.

It's one of the few available in Europe that passes the high standard of Anti-Stain, Anti-Bacterial and Anti-Fungal of ISO Standard - ISO22196. 

We offer three main shipping categories: Stock from Japan, Stock from Europe, and Samples.
