Like stone, ceramic and porcelain, Alterna Engineered Stone Tile flooring is incredibly beautiful and durable. But its comfortable surface makes Alterna warmer to the touch, kinder to your feet, and easier to care for in any room of your home.

• Warmth & Comfort: Alterna’s warm, comfortable surface is kinder to your feet, your family and anything you may drop on it.
• Engineered Durability: Unlike traditional tile, Alterna resists cracking from subfloor movement and drops.
• 100% Waterproof: Alterna engineered stone tile is perfect for high-moisture areas such as kitchens, bathrooms and laundry rooms.
• Made In The USA: Alterna floors are manufactured with global and domestic content.
• Coordinating Grout: Rounded Edge Tile provides option to install with a pre-mixed sanded acrylic grout
• No special tools or underlayment needed
