Zebra Check

Yes, the conversion is straightforward: multiply room length by width to get your surface, then divide by 0.48 m² — the coverage of one box of 12 Carreau Zebra tiles — and round up. Add a margin for cuts. At 25 tiles per m², this Carocim cement tile makes quantity planning genuinely simple.

Technique yes, drawing less so: Carreau Zebra is made with the traditional southern French cement tile craft that Carocim perpetuates — divider mould, hydraulic press, no firing — but its black-and-white chevrons speak a resolutely modern, dynamic language. Heritage in the making, contemporary in the looking: that tension is exactly its appeal.

2 colours, zero worry: on a rooftop terrace, the black and white chevrons of Carreau Zebra keep their punch thanks to the systematic anti-UV treatment Carocim applies to its outdoor cement tiles. Pigments are protected, colours stay real. Focus your attention instead on proper drainage, sealing and neutral-soap care — the true keys up there.

Bathrooms suit it well, with one ritual: proper sealing. Once treated with a pore-filler and water-repellent, Carreau Zebra handles splashes and humidity gracefully, on floors and walls alike. Avoid standing water, clean with neutral soap, and this black-and-white Carocim cement tile turns a functional room into a graphic statement.

Yes, both surfaces welcome it: on the floor, the chevrons of Carreau Zebra build a dynamic all-over zigzag; on a wall or splashback, they create a striking graphic panel. The 16 mm Carocim cement tile asks only for a sound substrate, double buttering and fine joints — plus sealing adapted to the room.
