Country Wood by Casalgrande

Collection Summary

Country Wood by Casalgrande Padana is a wood-effect porcelain stoneware collection with a slightly distressed appearance and balanced, natural colors: Ice, Bianco, Greige, Tortora, and Marrone. Planks come in 8×47″, 10×60″, and 24×47″ at 9 mm, plus a 16×47″ plank at 20 mm. Matte and Grip finishes allow the same wood look to run from interior floors to exterior areas. The pairing of a weathered wood character with an outdoor-capable 20 mm option is the collection’s differentiator.

Design & Aesthetic

Country Wood reads as aged, lightly worn timber rather than freshly milled boards. The palette moves from pale, cool Ice and Bianco through Greige to warmer Tortora and darker Marrone, giving options for classic, cottage, craftsman, and modern schemes. The long 10×60″ plank emphasizes length and direction in a room; the 24×47″ format gives a broader, wide-board look. Tile X Design lists V2 variation, so boards show moderate tonal difference across a floor.

Design Applications

Tile X Design lists Country Wood for floors and outdoor areas, and Casalgrande Padana describes the look as suited to indoor and outdoor spaces. A typical scenario is a living area that opens to a terrace: Matte planks inside, Grip planks outside in the same color. The 20 mm 16×47″ plank also appears in Casalgrande Padana’s Extragres 2.0 outdoor range. Manufacturer trims include a 12×47″ step tread, 3×47″ bullnose, 47×13″ assembled steps, and 5″×16″×20mm grilles.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Country Wood by Casalgrande Padana run from a living room onto a patio?

Yes. Use the Matte finish indoors and the Grip finish outdoors in the same color; the 20 mm 16×47″ Grip plank is offered for exterior paving.

Which Country Wood finish should I use in a bathroom?

Matte is rated R10 A+B. For areas that stay wet more often, Grip (R11 A+B) offers a higher rating; confirm against the project’s slip requirements.

Is Country Wood suitable for walls?

Tile X Design lists floor and outdoor applications only. Confirm wall use with the manufacturer before specifying.

How does Country Wood differ from Tavolato?

Country Wood has a distressed look and offers a Grip finish and 20 mm plank for outdoor use. Tavolato is an antique wood look listed for floors in a naturale finish with chevron and cassettone decors.
