Short answer: the five travertine-look tiles here are the most uniform family on the site — all five record Porcelain, Matt, 10 mm and the same slip class, and all five sit on the matt shelf. What separates them is the grain and the size. Two, Coastal Ivory and Coastal Alabaster, record a vein-cut grain, and Ivory's page adds that it runs the length of the tile; both are offered up to 600 × 1200 mm. The other three do not mention a vein-cut grain: their pages describe soft movement, gentle variation and a composed matt finish, and they are offered from 300 × 600 mm. All five record the slip class in the supplier's list inside the Specifications panel.

1. One material and one finish across all five
Every one of the five records Porcelain in the Material row and Matt on the Finish line, and every one of them appears in matt finish tiles. Only the six concrete-look tiles match it on all three counts, and all six also record 10 mm, though not all the same slip class; the stone-look range spreads six tiles across matt, honed and rough, and the fourteen tiles in the marble-look range record Porcelain but no single finish.
The product type row reads Travertine-look tile. These are porcelain tiles with a face that resembles travertine, not natural travertine, and the row is the place that settles it. Travertine or travertine look? explains what the natural stone is.
2. Vein-cut grain recorded on two, not on three
The pages describe their own faces, and the word that divides them is vein-cut. Coastal Ivory Travertine-Look Tile is “A warm ivory travertine look with a vein-cut grain that runs the length of the tile.” Coastal Alabaster Travertine-Look Tile is “A silver-white travertine look with a fine vein-cut grain, for rooms that want texture without warmth.” Only Coastal Ivory's says which way the grain runs, so that tile has an orientation; Coastal Alabaster's page does not say whether its grain has a direction.
The other three pages do not mention a vein-cut grain. Coastal Dune Travertine-Look Tile records “soft movement and a relaxed matt surface”, Coastal Mist Travertine-Look Tile “gentle variation and a matt finish”, and Coastal Stone Travertine-Look Tile “a composed matt finish”. A grain that runs one way is a decision to make before laying; where a page does not say whether its face has a direction, a sample is the way to find out. Two tiles that look the same on a screen is about exactly this kind of difference — the one that is written down rather than photographed.
3. The vein-cut pair and the other three come in different sizes
This is the part that makes the choice practical rather than aesthetic. The two vein-cut tiles are offered at 600 × 600 mm and 600 × 1200 mm. The other three are offered at 300 × 600 mm and 600 × 600 mm. Only 600 × 600 mm is common to all five.
In joint terms: 300 × 600 mm gives 5.56 pieces and 5 m of joint per square metre; 600 × 600 mm gives 2.78 pieces and 3.3 m; 600 × 1200 mm gives 1.39 pieces and 2.5 m. Only the two vein-cut tiles come in the longest format here, and at 600 × 1200 mm it halves the joint length against the smallest size in the family. Tile sizes in Australia runs the same arithmetic across the rest of the catalogue.
4. Three beige rows, two grey
Coastal Alabaster Travertine-Look Tile, Coastal Ivory Travertine-Look Tile and Coastal Dune Travertine-Look Tile record Beige; Coastal Mist Travertine-Look Tile and Coastal Stone Travertine-Look Tile record Grey. The colour row is a single word and the faces inside one word are not identical — Alabaster describes itself as silver-white and Ivory as warm, and both record Beige. Read the sentence as well as the row, and compare a sample in the room before committing to a tone. Beige tiles: 8 compared sets these three beside the five other beiges on the site.
5. All five record a slip classification — in the supplier's list, not the table
All five pages record a slip classification, as a Slip rating line in the supplier's list inside the Specifications panel, beside the finish and the thickness. What they do not have is the Slip-rating reference row that the
specification table uses elsewhere on this site — three of the six tiles in the
stone-look range show it there instead; both places print the same reminder to confirm it for the intended application. That is a difference in where
the fact is printed, not in whether it was recorded. This guide does not repeat the figure itself,
because a classification describes a surface under a test condition and this site does not hold the
test reports behind it.

answer a question about a particular place.
6. What these five pages do not record
All five record a thickness of 10 mm in their product details. Box coverage, updated on 2 October 2026 from supplier documentation, is stated for one size only. All five are made in two sizes, and each states 4 pieces, 1.44 m² and 30 kg for its 600 × 600 mm box; the 300 × 600 mm box of Coastal Dune, Coastal Mist and Coastal Stone and the 600 × 1200 mm box of Coastal Ivory and Coastal Alabaster are not specified. Since 5 October 2026 you choose the size on all five, and for the other size the quantity planner uses the typical pack for that size, 1.44 m² per box, labelled as not stated in the supplier's documentation. For the other size, a quantity still has to come from whoever is supplying. The measuring guide stays in square metres for that reason, and the quote checklist treats box coverage as a line to get in writing.
Questions people ask
Is this natural travertine?
No. All five record Porcelain in the Material row and Travertine-look tile in the product type row. Natural travertine is a different material with different rows, and this site does not stock it — the natural material on this site is the five pieces in natural stone mosaics. All five are listed together in travertine-look tiles.
Will the vein run the same way on every tile?
Coastal Ivory records a vein-cut grain that runs the length of the tile, which means the tile has an orientation; Coastal Alabaster records a fine vein-cut grain without saying whether it runs one way. The pages do not record how much the pattern repeats between pieces, so that is a question for a sample and for whoever is laying them. Comparing samples at home covers what to look for in a single piece.
Should I pick the grout colour from the chart?
A dried sample joint tells you more than a chart does, and it matters most at the smallest size — 5 m of joint in every square metre at 300 × 600 mm against 2.5 m at 600 × 1200 mm. The grout colour guide sets out the comparison.
What's similar to travertine?
What this site carries is the look, not the stone: five porcelain tiles that record Travertine-look tile in the product type row. Travertine proper is a natural stone with different rows, and it is not stocked here. The closest neighbouring patterns in the range are stone-look and marble-look, which are different patterns rather than substitutes, and each carries its own material and finish rows.
What stone looks like travertine?
That question is about natural stone, and these five are not it — all five record Porcelain. The only natural stone on this site is the five mosaic pieces in natural stone mosaics, set out in the five tiles here that are actually stone. Comparing one natural stone with another is outside what any record on this site settles.
Where these numbers come from
Checked on 9 September 2026, with the thickness rows re-checked on 15 September 2026, the comparison with the other look families and the place of the slip line on the page corrected on 30 September 2026, and the family comparison updated on 1 October 2026 from supplier documentation. Every size, colour row, material row and face description above is read from the product page it links to; where a page records nothing, this guide says so rather than supplying a value. The two counts are arithmetic, not measurements: pieces per square metre is 1 ÷ (width × height), and joint length per square metre is the tile perimeter ÷ (2 × area), because each joint is shared between two tiles and so each tile contributes half of its own perimeter. A figure is rounded once, at the end. The box coverage sentences in section 6 were updated on 2 October 2026 from supplier documentation, and the planner sentence on 5 October 2026, when those pages began to let you choose the size.
