Marena Black Gloss Ceramic 75x300mm Metro Wall Tile
Black metro is the confident choice, and gloss is what stops it from swallowing a room. Marena Black has a deep, reflective glaze that bounces light off the surface rather than absorbing it, so a black splashback reads as glossy and deliberate instead of heavy. Used behind a hob or in a small cloakroom it looks considerably more expensive than it costs.

Where it works
Hob splashbacks, cloakrooms, bar areas and shower feature walls. Black is at its best in small doses or in rooms you want to feel enclosed and dramatic rather than airy — a windowless cloakroom is a better home for it than a north-facing bathroom.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will black make a small room feel smaller?
Used floor to ceiling in a bright room, yes. Used on one wall or as a splashback, the opposite — the contrast makes the surrounding space read as larger. Gloss helps considerably.
Is the black consistent across tiles?
Yes. This is a Spanish-made tile and dark glazes are where factory quality shows most — a poor black metro varies visibly between boxes, which is impossible to hide once it is on the wall.
What grout colour?
Black or dark grey for a near-seamless wall; white grout for a graphic, high-contrast grid. There is no middle ground with black metro, so pick a side.
Does it show marks?
Gloss black shows water spots and dust more than lighter colours. It wipes clean easily, but factor that in if it is going somewhere that gets heavy splashing and infrequent cleaning.

- Check where it can go. Floors need a tile rated for floors. In showers and wet rooms, a matt or anti-slip finish is safer underfoot than polished.
- Measure and add 10%. Length x width for each area, added together, plus 10% for cuts and breakage (15% for herringbone or diagonal layouts). The calculator above does this for you.
- Pick your joint. Rectified tiles take a slim 2mm joint; non-rectified tiles need about 3mm. Large tiles need a flat surface; levelling clips help.
- Order it all together. Tiles are made in batches that can vary slightly in shade, so buy the full amount in one order.
- See it first. Order a sample to check the colour and finish in your own light.
