Wholesale floor tiles from Turkish factories
Turkish floor tile ships out of the ceramic belt around Kütahya, Bilecik and Eskişehir — the same high-capacity plants that supply glazed ceramic and porcelain across Europe. For an importer that means one sourcing route for the whole floor programme: glazed ceramic where the budget leads, porcelain where the traffic demands it, produced fresh against your order in one shade batch.
The export workhorses are 60×60, 45×45 and 60×120, in matt, polished and structured anti-slip surfaces. For commercial floors fix the slip class (R9–R11) and a 10–12 mm body in the order; for residential programmes 8–9 mm glazed ceramic keeps the container cost down.
Specifying a floor tile order
| Parameter | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Body (glazed ceramic / porcelain) | Porcelain: absorption ≤ 0.5%, frost-proof; ceramic costs less for dry interiors |
| Slip class (R9–R13) | Contractual requirement on commercial and public floors |
| Rectified vs cushion edge | Rectified lays at 2 mm joints — large-format look |
| Shade & calibre codes | One kiln batch = one code set; order the full quantity at once |
Container maths and how to order
A 20ft container carries 23–26 tonnes — roughly 1,000–1,200 m² of 9 mm glazed floor tile or 850–950 m² of 10 mm porcelain in 60×60. Floor, wall and trim pieces for one project are consolidated at the factory into a single load to the USA or Europe, with CE marking and ISO 13006 classification.
