County Anthracite brings a sophisticated dark charcoal-grey tone to exterior spaces, a genuine favourite across the UK paving market.

What is County Anthracite?

County Anthracite is an outdoor porcelain tile in a versatile dark charcoal-grey tone that suits both relaxed garden patios and more formal, contemporary terrace designs. In the highly requested 900 x 600mm format, the dark tone runs seamlessly across the installation with minimal interruption from grout joints, giving outdoor spaces a calm, considered architectural feel.

Anthracite is one of the most consistently popular colours in the UK paving market, valued for its ability to suit almost any planting or building style without competing for visual attention.

Available Sizes

County Anthracite porcelain 600x600 is the preferred choice for smaller courtyards and stepped layouts, while the larger 900 x 600mm format suits most patio projects.

Thickness: 20mm, the standard for durable outdoor porcelain paving. Custom sizes and project quantities are available on request for full container orders.

Finish & Slip Resistance

County Anthracite comes with a dedicated anti-slip finish rated R11, the mandatory British standard for paving used outdoors in the UK, giving dependable grip in both wet and dry conditions.

County Anthracite vs. Other Dark Tones

Prefer a deeper, more dramatic black? Our Belgium Nero leans further into a true black tone rather than this softer charcoal-grey. Want the same character in genuine natural stone? Our Sagar Black Sandstone offers a similar dark palette with real natural texture, at the cost of occasional sealing.

Applications
