Chile makes very little tile and imports almost everything it lays, through home-improvement chains with national reach and specialist showrooms in Santiago's design districts. Santiago builds apartments across Las Condes, Nunoa and the eastern suburbs; Valparaiso and Vina del Mar renovate coastal homes; and the south builds timber houses with tiled kitchens and bathrooms.
Axoli Tiles supplies Chilean importers and chains from Morbi, forty to fifty days by sea to San Antonio or Valparaiso, with samples couriered first and your customs agent confirming duties and the import paperwork.
Designs that suit Chile
Marble and stone looks for apartment bathrooms and living rooms; picket, hexagon and chevron patterns for kitchens; encaustic and Moroccan patterns for entries and restaurants; terracotta looks for patios in the dry centre and north; and glossy whites for compact bathrooms.
