APE Sequoia Walnut 10×60 — Premium Porcelain Wood-Look Tile from Spain
The APE Sequoia Walnut 10×60 is a premium Spanish porcelain plank that delivers the authentic character of natural wood with the durability and low maintenance of through-body porcelain. Manufactured by APE Cerámica on a white-body BIa porcelain with a frost-resistant rating, this 10″x60″ plank is engineered for floors, walls, and exterior pavers in residential and commercial installations across the US.
About the Sequoia Collection by APE Cerámica
Walnut delivers a deep, sophisticated brown with rich grain character and dramatic visual depth. It anchors a room with warmth and gravitas — particularly effective in libraries, primary suites, executive offices, and upscale hospitality interiors. The Sequoia collection draws its name from the towering, long-lived sequoia trees of California, and the range spans five wood tones — Birch, Cherry, Honey, Oak, and Walnut — so designers and architects can specify a coordinated palette across multiple zones of a project. With a V3 moderate shade variation, every plank installs with the organic, non-repeating character of real timber while delivering the consistency contractors expect from a manufactured product.
Installation & Applications for APE Sequoia Walnut 10×60
The 10″x60″ (25×150 cm) plank format suits a wide range of layouts — straight-stack, 1/3 offset (running bond), herringbone, and chevron — and the rectified edges produce tight, near-grout-free seams. Because Sequoia is frost-resistant and rated for outdoor use, the same tile can run continuously from an interior living space onto a covered patio, pool deck, or exterior walkway, an effect specifiers increasingly request for indoor-outdoor designs. Recommended applications include residential and commercial floors, accent walls, fireplace surrounds, covered terraces, pool surrounds, and light commercial spaces such as boutiques, restaurants, and hospitality lobbies. For pool decks, stairs, or wet exterior areas, request the matching anti-slip (R11) version.
