Kit Kat Tiles

Kit kat tiles are slim, finger-shaped mosaics made in Japan, usually supplied on mesh-backed sheets so the spacing stays even as you lay them. They suit kitchen splashbacks, bathroom and shower walls, powder rooms and feature strips, and the narrow format also works well on curved surfaces. This range holds 46 tiles across ceramic and porcelain, so there is plenty to compare before you settle on one.

Sizes in the range

The mosaics run from very fine sticks around 12 x 92 mm up to broader fingers near 22 x 145 mm and 23 x 98 mm, with a few mid-width options in between. There are also larger rectangle formats up to 250 x 400 mm if you want the kit kat look at a bigger scale. Narrower pieces read as a fine, busy texture up close, while the wider fingers give a calmer, more linear pattern.

Finishes and colours

You can choose gloss or matt. Gloss catches the light and lifts a darker colour, and matt keeps things soft and low-sheen. Colours span the neutrals, white, bone white, black, grey, grey blue and blue grey, through to greens in mint, jade and standard green, plus blue, red and pink. The greens and blues tend to carry subtle variation across a sheet, which is part of the handmade Japanese character.

Ceramic or porcelain

Both materials appear in this range. Ceramic is the common choice for wall work like splashbacks and shower walls. Porcelain is denser, so check the individual product page for the recommended use of the tile you like before ordering.

How coverage works

Kit kat tiles are sold by the box, and each product page shows the coverage per box in square metres. Measure your wall, add a little extra for cuts and future repairs, then divide by the box coverage to work out how many boxes you need. If you are unsure, we are happy to help you check the maths.

Samples and showroom

Colour and sheen are hard to judge on a screen, so order up to five samples for $15, and that $15 is credited to your first order. You can also see the full range in person at our Sydney showroom in Waterloo, where it helps to view the sheets against your own bench, tapware or paint colour.
