Archicross Base Grey is the plainest tile in the Archicross concept in neutral mid-grey — one flat, even tone, no veining, no pattern. Paradyż describe the Base line as the minimalist end of the range, drawn from the meeting of natural landscape and urban space. This is the colour that gets specified when the floor has to disappear and let the sanitaryware, the joinery or a feature wall carry the room.
The finish is the slip rating. Matt is R10, Structure A is R11 and Structure B is R12 — identical grey across all three. That is the reason this range wins whole-building specifications: one grey runs through a dry corridor, a wet shower area and a ramped entrance while the rating changes underfoot, and the floor still looks continuous. Mid grey is also the most forgiving tone here for dust and water marks, more so than the plain white or black.
What “structure” actually means here. Structure A and B are not a printed effect — the surface is physically raised. Structure B carries a fine, dense grain across the whole face, closer to fine grit paper than to a smooth kitchen wall tile; you feel it under a bare foot, and that relief is what produces the grip. The structured faces hold dirt in the texture rather than wiping straight off, so they want a brush rather than a flat mop.
Working out quantity. Every format covers 1.43 m² per box at 26.6 kg — a 6 m² floor is five boxes with the usual ~10% cutting allowance. Rectified edges take a 2 mm joint; suits underfloor heating. Order the whole job in one batch.
