Walker Zanger Recreates Brushed Stone Feel with Porcelain Sequoia Collection

Luxury porcelain tile mimics the look and feel of exotic veined Sequoia stone

LOS ANGELES, CA – Walker Zanger—the world’s most comprehensive stone and tile company—unifies strength, elegance and innovation with its new Sequoia collection, which combines the exotic look and feel of veined sequoia marble with the durability and broader color palette of porcelain tile. The result is a product that enables designers and homeowners to create truly unique and sophisticated interior and exterior spaces.

The Sequoia collection brings beauty and brawn to commercial and residential flooring. Through the application of the most advanced glazing technology and surface treatment, each tile’s surface has the exact feel and look of brushed stone in perfect shades of grey, taupe and cream. Yet, since it is crafted from porcelain tile, it is free of the design and maintenance difficulties often associated with softer stone. This achieves a lasting look of customized, luxury stone flooring—even in high-traffic areas.

“Walker Zanger remains on the forefront of design because we endeavor to create products that are both beautiful and functional,” said Vice President of Design and Marketing Jared Becker. “Designers recognize the want for luxury flooring, even in areas that receive the most traffic. Our Sequoia collection meets this need to help elevate these spaces.”

An astonishing artistic and technical achievement, Sequoia porcelain tile identically mimics the Sequoia stone. Manufactured in Italy, the carefully designed process creates detailed, tactile textures just like the striations in the natural stone. Additionally, proprietary glazing technology has the ability to create new design colors that cannot be offered by Sequoia stone, which is naturally brown.

These brushed and honed porcelain tiles—offered in Almond, Black, Grey and Puro—are available as an 8-by-48-inch plank, a 24-by-48-inch plank, or a unique eye-catching mosaic.
