APE Alexandria White 24 x 48 Polished — Premium Porcelain Floor & Wall Tile from Spain
The APE Alexandria White 24 x 48 Polished is a large-format through-body porcelain tile from Spain, delivering a clean white ground with delicate gray veining that moves across the surface like a gentle breeze, recalling the look of honed Hellenic marble. Its polished, mirror-like finish that reflects light beautifully, making rooms feel brighter and more expansive makes it a versatile choice for contemporary residential and light commercial interiors — from master bathrooms and foyers to open-plan kitchen floors and statement feature walls.
About the Alexandria Collection
The Alexandria collection by APE Ceramica draws its inspiration from a precious Greek marble celebrated for its luxurious veining and bright, refined character. The collection features a white base with soft gray veining inspired by precious Greek marble, protected by a special enamel that adds exclusivity. Slight shade variation (V2) ensures a consistent, polished look across large-area installations while still capturing the organic movement of natural stone.
Installation & Applications for APE Alexandria White 24 x 48 Polished
The 24″x48″ (60×120 cm) large format minimizes grout lines for a clean, seamless aesthetic — particularly effective in open-plan living areas, upscale bathrooms, foyers, and statement walls. The rectified edge allows for tight grout joints (as low as 1/16″) for a near-continuous stone look. Recommended applications include master bathroom floors and walls, shower enclosures, kitchen floors, entryways, and accent walls. Suitable for residential floors and walls and light commercial applications (PEI 4).
