Home / Product / Imported Tiles
India’s tile industry has made remarkable advances — but the world’s great tile-producing nations, particularly Spain, Italy, and Portugal, have centuries of tradition in tile craftsmanship and remain the global benchmark for design innovation, material quality, and technical precision.
Imported tiles are the preferred choice for Bangalore’s luxury residential projects, premium apartments in areas like Sadashivanagar, Indiranagar, and Jayanagar, five-star hotels, corporate offices, and high-end retail spaces where design detail and material quality are paramount.
At Maheshwari Impex, our imported tile collection is personally curated to bring the best of global tile design to Bangalore — with options spanning classical European elegance to cutting-edge contemporary styles.

Imported tiles are wall and floor tiles manufactured outside India — primarily from Spain, Italy, Portugal, Turkey, and China. Spanish and Italian tiles are considered the global quality benchmark. They are available in Bangalore through specialist tile importers and premium tile showrooms like Maheshwari Impex.
For luxury projects, the premium is well justified. Imported tiles — particularly Spanish and Italian porcelains — offer larger format sizes, more precise manufacturing tolerances, more sophisticated design palettes, and technical specifications (like R11/R12 outdoor ratings) not available in equivalent Indian tiles.
Maheshwari Impex is one of Bangalore’s leading stockists of premium imported tiles from Spain, Italy, Portugal, and other major tile-producing countries. Visit our showroom or contact us for our current imported tile catalogue.
Imported tile prices in Bangalore range from ₹150–₹250 per sq ft for mid-range European porcelains to ₹350–₹700+ per sq ft for premium Italian and Spanish large-format slabs and luxury collections. Contact Maheshwari Impex for current pricing on specific collections.
For tiles in stock at Maheshwari Impex, delivery across Bangalore is available within a few days. For special-order imported tiles not in stock, lead times are typically 2–6 weeks depending on the supplier and country of origin.
Both have their place. Imported tiles offer cutting-edge design, large formats, and superior technical precision — ideal for luxury projects. Indian tiles provide excellent value, wide availability, and designs suited to Indian aesthetics at every budget. For most Bangalore homes, a mix of Indian tiles (primary areas) and imported tiles (feature areas) offers the best value-to-impact ratio.
