Chocolate Quarry Tile 175mm

There is a reason the Chocolate Quarry Tile was the backbone of South African architecture for generations. It wasn’t just a floor covering — it was a lifetime investment. Prized for its deep, rich chocolate tones and unmatched resilience, this tile vanished from the local market for years, leaving a void that flimsy imports simply couldn’t fill.

We are proud to announce that the original old-modern manufacturing process is back. These tiles are once again available for sale across all provinces, from the Cape coast to the Limpopo bushveld.

Engineered for Extremes

Unlike mass-produced ceramic tiles, our Chocolate Quarry Tiles are extruded as a split tile — a traditional manufacturing process that ensures a denser, more robust body. At 18 mm thick, they handle heavy foot traffic, outdoor furniture, and the harsh South African sun without compromise. Made from high-quality South African clay, the tile’s thermal mass helps keep interiors cool in summer and holds warmth during chilly Highveld winters.
