Plastic tiles, the way forward ?

Perhaps good for the diy'er or for someone on a very low budget !
YouTube - versatile plastic wall tiles from Neken

These have been around for a while, though I've not seen their transfers before.

I've ripped out a few bathrooms that had these in them. They made a right mess of the walls. The last one had these tile panels in the shower cubicle. The polystirene backing stayed on the wall. Fortunately I was to take the plasterboard off as well!

Saw these in wykes I think, and I cant imagine they would feel right when installed. Sure, at a distance, or on a poor quality youtube video they look fine, but up close surely they would feel plastickie and not solid like tiling?

You're not wrong there!

I stripped out a whole bathroom full of these a few years ago. Considering they had only been up a few years they were in a right state. They had started coming away from the walls and, despite what the commercial suggests, they were attracting mould.

Looks more of a diy product, seen something similar in a bathroom did'nt fit to well

Makes me laugh "Cut with scissors" :lol:

So my tile cutters Rubi TS60 Plus, Belle Minitile 230 and the plasplugs are all now obselete, shunted into the past by a pair of scissors!
