Kit Kat tiles: sold per strip, not per m²

Why some Trident products show a price per unit instead of per m² — and how to order the right quantity of Kit Kat and linear tiles.

Kit Kat tiles (slim, finger-like strips, often fluted) look different from a standard 600×600 floor tile — and they are sold differently too.

Per unit, not per m²

On Trident, Kit Kat and similar linear pieces are sold by quantity (per strip or piece), not by the box-and-m² model used for most porcelain. That is why you will see a / unit price and a quantity calculator instead of “Enter m²”.

  • Area-sold tiles → price / m² + box calculator
  • Kit Kat / linear tiles → price / unit + quantity picker
  • Both can still show size and material in the specifications

How many do I need?

Work from the wall length (or the length of the run you are covering) and the tile’s nominal size. Your tiler can confirm layout and joint width. If you are unsure, order a sample first, then ask us to sense-check quantities before you place a full order.

If a product shows / unit, do not try to reverse-engineer an m² rate from the box maths — use the quantity shown on the product page.
