AO launches new tile products

Dallas, TX – February 1, 2022 – American Olean (AO) is proud to add new tile products to its line of beautiful, dependable products as well as line an extension to an existing assortment.  Known as a brand that provides superior service, American Olean also offers on-trend designs making it easy to create stylish spaces at home or commercially. 

“Biophilic design has shown to bring healing benefits to the mind, body and soul by blurring the lines from outdoors in,” said Shelly Halbert, director of product design for Dal-Tile Corporation.  “American Olean’s new Solstice and Historic Limestone collections both flow naturally between the two spaces with their organic stone visuals and the technical benefit of Stepwise, a technology that provides 50% more slip resistance than regular tile. Whimsical, vintage and fun speak to both AO’s new Playscapes and Unglazed Mosaics collections; both are eclectic in design and offer designers the freedom to fully express their creativity.”

NEW Solstice Collection

American Olean’s new stone look collection, Solstice, combines the timeless visuals of marble and slate in a greyscale color palette. The entire collection of ColorBody porcelain floor tile and glazed ceramic mosaic tile features StepWise technology.  StepWise provides 2X the slip resistance as regular tile, making Solstice a perfect selection for outdoor installations like walkways and patios. The variation of movement characteristic of natural stone is showcased in this extensive size offering which includes 15×30, 4×8, 8” hexagon, 2×2 mosaic and a cut-to-size 5×30. Customize your design with lattice or herringbone installation patterns in the 4×8 and 5×30 sizes.
