Short answer: twelve of the sixty products here record 600 × 1200 mm, and 600 × 1200 mm tiles lists the same twelve. Ten are also made as a 600 mm square; Pietra Vela and Pietra Vela Fluted are made only in the long format; the guide to fluted tiles sets the two side by side. None is also made in 300 × 600 mm. Eight are Pietra marble looks, two are Coastal travertine looks and two are Atlas stone looks. All twelve record Porcelain, a slip class and a thickness of 10 mm. Against the 600 mm square, by the author's arithmetic from the recorded sizes, the long format halves the pieces per square metre and, laid in a straight grid, carries about a quarter less length of joint.

1. Why twelve, and the two that are only long
Twelve products carry 600 × 1200 mm in their size tag in the site's product feed, and the collection page counts the same twelve. Ten of them also record 600 × 600 mm. The other two, Pietra Vela Marble-Look Tile and Pietra Vela Fluted Marble-Look Tile, record 600 × 1200 mm alone. They share one look: the plain tile's page describes a white marble look "with long grey-green veins", and the fluted page opens "The same white marble look carried across a vertical fluted face".
The fluted tile is the only one of the twelve with a Profile row, which reads Fluted, and the only one whose Finish row reads Not specified.
2. Ten are also squares, and none is also 300 × 600
The ten are the ten that 600 × 600 mm tiles: 34 compared records as also made in 600 × 1200 mm. No product on the site records both 600 × 1200 mm and 300 × 600 mm, so the long format and the smaller rectangle never belong to the same tile; 300 × 600 mm tiles: 19 compared covers the other rectangle.
By series, the long format is concentrated in three ranges. Eight of the fourteen Pietra marble looks are made in it: Alba, Luna, Perla, Dove, Smoke and Shadow as well as the square, and the two Vela tiles only in it. Two of the five Coastal travertine looks are, Ivory and Alabaster. Two of the three Atlas stone looks are, Ivory and Frost; Atlas Pearl is made as the square only. None of the Urban, Quarry or Ridge concrete and slate looks, and none of the Haven terrazzo looks, is made in 600 × 1200 mm.
Where a page lists two formats, the Size line beside the cart has offered them as a choice since 5 October 2026, 600 × 600 mm or 600 × 1200 mm, and the order is placed for the size chosen. The 600 × 1200 mm box is not stated in the supplier's current documentation, so with that size chosen the page uses a typical 2 pieces, 1.44 m² per box and asks you to confirm before ordering.
3. Material, thickness and slip class
All twelve record Porcelain in the Material row: the eight Pietra, two Coastal and two Atlas tiles. Every page shows the same note under its rows: fields shown as Not specified "are not stated in the supplier's current documentation for this tile". A blank is a gap in the record, not a negative.
All twelve record a thickness of 10 mm. Tile thickness lists the values recorded across the range.
All twelve record a slip class, written two ways. The Coastal and Pietra pages carry it in a Slip rating row; the Atlas pages carry a Slip-rating reference row that adds "confirm for the intended application". The collection page calls these an "AS 4586 slip class". The product records do not name an edition; the current edition in the Standards Australia catalogue is AS 4586-2013, Slip resistance classification of new pedestrian surface materials, and when this guide was written the catalogue listed it as awaiting revision, with Amendment 1:2017 marked current. A recorded class is a reference value, not approval for a particular application; where a tile may be laid is settled by your installer or specifier.
4. Five ways the Finish row reads
The twelve pages write their finish five different ways. Three read Matt: the two Coastal tiles and Pietra Vela. Five read "Polished or matt": Pietra Alba, Luna, Dove, Smoke and Shadow. One, Pietra Perla, reads Honed. The two Atlas tiles read "Texture and honed". Pietra Vela Fluted reads Not specified.
The Finishing line beside the cart does not always repeat the Finish row. On the five Pietra tiles that name two faces it has offered them as a choice since 5 October 2026, Polished or Matt, and shows the one chosen. On the two Atlas tiles it shows Honed. On Pietra Vela Fluted it reads "Check current finish". On the Atlas pair and on Vela Fluted, where the two lines differ, confirm the face before ordering. The difference is not a small one: a review of gloss research by Šarić and Sole names colour, gloss, texture and translucency as the four main appearance attributes of a surface, and places gloss next after colour in how people read a surface. We cite the review for that ranking only; which face suits a room is not something it addresses.
The twelve ways this range writes a finish sets out how the Finish row is written across the sixty pages.
5. What the long format does to the count and the joints
A 600 × 1200 mm tile covers 0.72 m², so one square metre takes about 1.39 of them and carries about 2.5 m of joint in a straight grid. The 600 mm square takes about 2.78 and carries about 3.3 m; the 300 × 600 mm rectangle takes about 5.56 and carries about 5.0 m. So for the ten tiles made in both formats, the long tile means half as many pieces as the square and about a quarter less joint. These are the author's calculations from the recorded sizes, before cuts and before any joint width is allowed for. The box for each size, and how other shops pack this one, is set out in how many tiles come in a box.
That is the arithmetic behind a phrase seven of the pages use. The descriptions of Pietra Alba, Luna, Perla, Dove, Smoke and Shadow and of Atlas Ivory each say the tile is "available in the long 600 × 1200 format for fewer joints". Fewer is right against the square in the same room; how many joints a particular floor or wall ends up with depends on its dimensions and the cuts.
A long side also brings the offset question. It also makes basketweave and herringbone possible, and Tile patterns for 600 × 600, 300 × 600 and 600 × 1200 tiles draws both to scale. What is the 1/3 rule for tiles? works both meanings of that rule through in millimetres. For 600 × 1200 mm the one-third offset is 400 mm (a half step would be 600 mm), and under the other meaning the end cut is kept to at least 400 mm along the tile and 200 mm across it. None of the twelve pages states a layout, a flatness figure or an edge treatment, and none of them has an Edge row. Pietra Vela and Pietra Vela Fluted state a weight of 30 kg for a box of two pieces, updated on 2 October 2026 from supplier documentation; the other ten state 30 kg only for their 600 × 600 mm box, and none records a weight per tile. Tile sizes in Australia sets the recorded face and sheet sizes side by side.
6. Colour and look
Six of the twelve carry the White tag, three Grey and three Beige. The white six are the two Vela tiles, Pietra Alba, Luna and Perla, and Atlas Frost. The grey three are Pietra Dove, Smoke and Shadow. The beige three are the two Coastal tiles and Atlas Ivory. Tags and descriptions do not always use the same word: Coastal Alabaster carries the Beige tag while its description opens "A silver-white travertine look", so read the description and a sample piece, not the tag alone.
Two descriptions tie the look to the length of the tile. Coastal Ivory has "a vein-cut grain that runs the length of the tile", and Pietra Vela has long veins. On a 1200 mm piece, the direction of that grain is something to agree with whoever lays it. The Style / shape row carries the words Large format on ten of the twelve pages; the two Coastal tiles do not carry them, although both are in the collection. How large is a large format tile? explains why the collection, not that row, is the complete list.
7. Checking the long format before you order
All twelve carry a Sample piece option beside the standard purchase unit. The site's sample tray describes sample pieces as being "for colour and finish comparison" and says "They are not full tiles", so one piece cannot show how a 1.2 m run and its joints read across a surface. We suggest setting it against a 600 × 1200 mm rectangle marked on the surface it is for. Every page states that "Screen images, sample pieces and production batches can vary". Tile samples explains how ordering works, and how to compare samples at home covers what to look at.
Questions people ask
Are 600 × 1200 tiles large format?
On this site, yes: all twelve are in the large format collection, which is organised around 600 × 600 and 600 × 1200 mm formats. Other definitions start from different sizes; How large is a large format tile? compares three of them.
Which 600 × 1200 tiles are polished?
Five record a polished face in the Finish row, all Pietra marble looks, as "Polished or matt": Alba, Luna, Dove, Smoke and Shadow. On all five, polished is one of two finishes to choose from on the product page; the other is matt. What is a honed finish? describes how a polished and a matt face of one look differ to the eye. None of the other seven records a polished face.
How many 600 × 1200 tiles are in a square metre?
About 1.39 by area, since each covers 0.72 m². That is a way of picturing the surface, not an order quantity: cuts, the room's shape and the joint width change the number you order; how many tiles do I need works three rooms through.
Is any 600 × 1200 tile also made in 300 × 600?
No. Ten are also made as a 600 mm square, and the two Vela tiles only in 600 × 1200 mm.
Where these facts come from
The Finishing line was updated on 4 October 2026, when the product page began listing Polished as a finish. The Size and Finishing lines were updated again on 5 October 2026, when they became choices. Every count above was produced on 23 September 2026 by a script that read the product feed at /products.json, cross-checked it against 600 × 1200 mm tiles and the large format collection, then read the twelve product pages in turn: the Size, Thickness, Finish, Profile and slip rows, the Product type, Style / shape and Material rows in the specifications panel, the Size and Finishing lines beside the cart, the colour tag, the purchase options and the opening description sentence. The Material, thickness and slip-class counts were updated on 1 October 2026 from supplier documentation. Words in quotation marks are the product page's, collection page's or sample tray's own wording, copied as written; the counts outside them are tallies of those rows; the per-square-metre figures are the author's arithmetic from the recorded sizes; anything else outside quotation marks is the author's observation, not a recorded fact. Nothing here is a performance claim or a statement of where a tile belongs. Supplier documentation changes, so read the page on the day you order, and confirm the specification your project needs with the responsible installer.
