Wallcano Tiles was established in 2019 with a small warehouse in Luton, UK.
From the beginning, our focus was on building strong relationships with tile dealers and providing reliable access to quality tile products.
The Foundation Objective
This dealer-first approach became the foundation for Wallcano's journey.
From a small local warehouse to a nationwide distribution network.
As Wallcano began working with more dealers, we gained a deeper understanding of the requirements of the UK tile market.
Every dealer operates differently.
Some dealers require smaller quantities for immediate bespoke jobs, while others require larger volumes and ongoing pallet replenishments.
Some focus on specific product categories, while others need broader, comprehensive collections to display across their showrooms.
Understanding these differences helped shape Wallcano's approach to distribution.
Our dealer relationships became an important source of market insight, helping us understand changing requirements and customer preferences.
The UK tile market is constantly evolving.
New designs, sizes, surfaces and applications continue to influence customer preferences. Wallcano continuously develops its portfolio to respond to these changing requirements.
Our focus expanded around indoor and outdoor porcelain tiles, with selected designs available across different sizes and surfaces.
“The objective was not simply to increase the number of products. It was to build a relevant and commercially useful product portfolio for dealers.”
As the business developed, Wallcano expanded its international sourcing network.
Today, Wallcano sources products from 7+ countries, including:
High-grade vitrified tiles, large formats, and advanced automated manufacturing.
Historic Castellón ceramic design excellence and premium architectural surfaces.
Pioneering trend-led marble realism and high-end luxury surface styling.
Advanced sintered stone engineering, precision calibration and diverse formats.
Rich natural stone inspiration, travertine looks and dense porcelain tiles.
Continuous discovery of manufacturing capabilities and niche design innovations.
This global sourcing network gives Wallcano access to different manufacturing capabilities, designs and product opportunities. At the same time, our focus remains on understanding what the UK market needs.
The Wallcano journey is also connected to manufacturing through the wider Wallcano Group.
In India, manufacturing is supported through Top Notch Tiles, granting direct kiln control, strict batch consistency, and high-volume porcelain production.
In Spain, manufacturing is supported through Artelusso Tiles, providing direct European design refinement, cutting-edge glazes, and premium finishing.
These manufacturing connections complement Wallcano's international sourcing and UK distribution capabilities.
As the dealer network grew, reliable stock availability became increasingly important.
Wallcano continued developing its UK warehousing and distribution capabilities. Today, Wallcano operates with more than 50,000 sq. ft. of warehouse capacity and has 200+ containers of stock available at any given time.
This represents an important stage in our journey. The focus moved beyond simply sourcing products to maintaining a significant UK stock position for the trade.
50,000+ sq. ft. central facility in Luton LU3 ready for immediate dealer dispatch.
Our dealer network includes businesses of different sizes, with very different stock requirements.
Wallcano developed a flexible supply model to support these differences:
For smaller requirements and immediate product needs. Ideal for residential top-ups, bespoke repairs, and emergency customer additions.
For larger stock requirements. Perfectly calibrated for dealer showroom reserves, multi-room projects, and steady merchant replenishment.
For larger-volume orders and projects. Direct factory kiln runs shipped directly to commercial contractors and large merchant distributors.
This flexibility allows Wallcano to support both smaller independent dealers and larger-volume businesses.
The Wallcano dealer network has continued to grow alongside the business.
Today, Wallcano serves more than 240 tile dealers across the UK and Ireland.
Our dealers are not simply customers. They are an important part of our development.
Their feedback helps us understand:
This continuous connection with the trade helps influence the way we develop our business.
Our relationship with dealers extends beyond supplying products.
Wallcano regularly conducts sample surveys to understand dealer requirements and showroom needs. Based on these requirements, we provide samples to help dealers present products to their customers.

For Wallcano, supporting the dealer means supporting the complete product journey.
