What kind of tile is Cobalto?

We stock Cobalto as porcelain in a fluted shape, 5X10. It reads blue. Fired denser than ordinary ceramic, porcelain has near-zero water absorption, which is why it also goes on floors and wet walls. The store classes it as glazed.

Sizes and finishes

How it is actually sold — measured off the spec sheet, not rounded.

Sizes

Cobalto is made in a single size, 5X10. That makes layout simple — what you see in the sample is the module you get across the whole wall.

Where it works

The applications this surface is actually rated for.

Where it is rated to go: flooring, at all of it at commercial duty.

Rated for

Flooring — residential and commercial

What to expect once it is installed

The ratings that decide whether the finished wall matches the sample.

Shade variation: V2 — slight variation

Expect a little movement piece to piece — enough to look like a natural material, not enough to plan around.

Certifications

What it holds: Greenguard Indoor Air Quality Certified.

What to put next to it

Built from the color we measured off Cobalto itself, not from its name.

Forget the name for a moment. The swatch measures #3B5862 — deep and cool — which puts it nearest Charcoal in our pairing data. Close enough to neutral that the cabinets get to make the decisions; this will follow them.

Hardware

Warm Brass / Satin Gold — gold jewelry on gray flannel. Against this surface it is a step lighter, which lifts the surface without washing it out classic
Copper — Copper pulls against charcoal like embers in ash, and every fingerprint just speeds the living patina you were going to want anyway.. Against this surface it is a step lighter, which lifts the surface without washing it out current
Matte Black (Metal) — tonal, hardware disappears into the mass. Against this surface it is a step darker — enough separation to read as two materials solid

Countertop

White Veined (Marble-Look) — inverted tuxedo — dark base, light top. Against this surface it is much lighter, so the cabinets carry the room and this recedes classic

Island

Natural / White Oak — dark perimeter with a wood island keeps it livable. Against this surface it is a step lighter, which lifts the surface without washing it out current

Cabinets

Warm White / Ivory — A charcoal island anchored by warm white perimeter is the combination clients stop questioning after year five — it simply never dates because it never trended.. Against this surface it is much lighter, so the cabinets carry the room and this recedes classic

Questions about Cobalto

Answered from this product’s own spec sheet and our measurement of it.

What size is Cobalto?

Cobalto comes in one size, 5X10. One module across the whole wall keeps the layout simple — what you approve in the sample is what you get.

Where can I use Cobalto?

Its maker rates it for flooring. We hold to that rating when we quote — installing outside it is how a warranty claim gets denied.

Will the tiles match the sample I saw?

Cobalto is rated V2 — slight variation. Clearly the same tile throughout, with small differences in tone that most people stop noticing once it is grouted.

What color is Cobalto, really?

We measured its own swatch at #3B5862 — deep and cool. It sits close to neutral, so it takes direction from the cabinets rather than fighting them. Names are marketing; that number is what the camera saw.

Does Cobalto need sealing?

No. Porcelain is vitrified almost to zero water absorption. The tile itself never needs sealing; cement grout still benefits from it.
