Nicholls and Clarke Group are delighted to announce that we have been awarded ‘Wall Tile of the Year’ at the 2025 Tile Association (TTA) Awards for our Backlit Stone Collection.

Backlit Stone’s revolution of inkjet technology and design within the tile industry impressed judges with its striking gemstone replication. This award is an honour for the N&C team and highlights the dedication to leading the way in tile innovation.

The Backlit Stone Tile Collection celebrates the beauty of gemstones and their illuminations. Designed to capture the translucence and beauty of stones such as ivory onyx, labradorite and golden amber. Encapsulating the tones, textures, and glow of these stones enables this range to be unlike anything else in the market.

Available in 600x1200mm format and supported by square and interlocking mosaic options, this collection is ideal for creating beautiful statements in both commercial and residential spaces. Crafted with premium porcelain, Backlit Stone is available in two finishes, polished and natural silk, providing a high gloss, reflective surface or a softer, silk-like effect.

Adopted through the trend for biophilic designs, N&C Backlit Stone embodies the beauty of gemstones and celebrating the natural phenomena of lights impact. This design completely embraces the ongoing trend of bringing nature into our homes, promoting calm and wellbeing, whilst embodying luxury and glamour.  Addressing the demand for large format tiles, Backlit Stones size range enables designs to have an open airy feel with minimal grout lines.

We would like to thank The Tile Association, judges and voters for this award.
