Fabricating Stair Treads, Nosings, Skirtings and Drainage Channels for
Integrated Tile Solutions
Armatile, is specialist retailer and distributor, with a bespoke fabrication and in-house tile design facility located in
Northern Ireland.
Our bespoke fabrication services enable clients to think beyond standard porcelain tile installations. We create
customised tiles designs and unique products to suit clients’ exacting specifications and projects.
Using industrial saws and waterjet cutting technology we precision cut, mitre, groove, edge and shape even the
hardest porcelain tiles and slabs (from 6mm up to 20mm); fabricating high quality stair treads to complement all types
of interior or exterior tiling schemes.
Our fabrication processes enable us to create a wide variety of stair treads, edges, nosings, risers and slip resistant
finishes for every type of application. We also create porcelain pool edges and drainage channel covers for that
complete luxurious, seamless surface aesthetic.
The Edges and Nosings
Our skilled team fabricate stair treads with a selection of nosings and edges;
1. Round Edge (RE) 2. Mitred Tread with 40mm Facing Edge (ME40)
3. Mitred Gradone Tread with 40mm Facing Edge (GRAD40)
Note: The colour of the fabricated round edge will depend on the base colour of the porcelain tile rather then the finished surface on it
Note: Standard Facing Edge depth is 40mm. Other sizes are available on request
Note: Mitred edge stair treads are micro-bevelled to prevent potential damage and chipping during use
Examples of standard tile sizes used in our fabrication processes:
300x300, 400x400, 500x500, 600x300, 600x600, 600x900 & 600x1200 – Other sizes on request
