Curved Tan Tile

Scuff marks rarely resist warm water and neutral soap: on a well-sealed Carreau Courbe Tanne, rubber traces from shoes sit on the protected surface and lift with a soft pad and gentle circular motion. Never resort to acid, bleach or abrasive powders, which harm cement tiles. Keeping the pore sealer fresh, as Carocim recommends, makes removal even easier.

Two hues set the direction: the terracotta and beige of Carreau Courbe Tanne call for a grout in a soft sand, ivory or light beige tone, close to the lighter colour of the tile. A discreet, unpigmented grout in fine joints lets the curves flow uninterrupted. Avoid dark contrasting grout, which would grid the design; Carocim favours continuity on this cement tile.

For studio Heju, curves are a language: designing for Carocim, they chose slender, organic shapes that evoke Mediterranean architecture without copying it, and dressed them in terracotta and beige. Carreau Courbe Tanne condenses that intention into a warm, sculptural and contemporary cement tile, where each line seems drawn in one confident, flowing gesture.

Yes, in the sense that matters for your project: sun-readiness is built in, since Carocim systematically applies an anti-UV treatment to its outdoor-rated tiles, protecting the terracotta and beige pigments of Carreau Courbe Tanne so colours stay true. For formal technical documentation on this cement tile, contact Carocim directly, which can detail the protection applied.

Strict uniformity is not part of the promise — character is: each Carreau Courbe Tanne is handmade, so the intensity of the terracotta and beige varies subtly from tile to tile. Once laid, these differences merge into a rich, vibrating surface. Shuffle tiles from several boxes during installation, as Carocim advises, to distribute the nuances of this cement tile harmoniously.
