Advancements in digital inkjet technology have created three new color body porcelains that Arizona Tile is proud to showcase: the Eternal Limestones Series, the Nu Travertine Series, and the Slate Series. These digitally produced and perfectly balanced blends of natural stone create a visually pleasing and functional porcelain tile that portrays a near replica of actual limestone, travertine and slate. The creation process of these products is fascinating!<\/p>\n

    Eternal Limestones Series<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Arizona Tile\u2019s Eternal Limestones Series<\/a>\u00a0recreates the beauty and color variation of natural limestone, even depicting what appear to be fossils and shell remnants throughout the tile. This line displays clean, rectified edges which will allow narrower grout joints and give the illusion of an uninterrupted honed surface. Eternal Limestones is made in the USA and contains 21% pre-consumer recycled content, is offered in three colors and two sizes, and includes a surface bullnose. Resilient enough for residential and commercial use, Eternal Limestones can be used in a variety of interior and exterior applications including floors, walls, vanities, and fireplaces.
