# Recycled Paper Tiles Tri by Slate-ish is a Collection of Laminates that are Eco and Stylish By Meghan Young | Published 2014-09-18 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/recycled-paper-tile References: [fancy](http://fancy.com/things/432971694290771497/Recycled-Paper-Laminate-Tiles-by-Slate-ish) & [slate-ish](http://slate-ish.com/products/) The recycled paper tile designed by Slate-ish, a company based in Nebraska, is a great alternative for those who are conscious of the environment. Made out of Richlite and Paperstone, the materials have been repurposed in a useful and chic way. Taking on a triangular shape, each recycled paper tile is different to the process of crafting them. What makes the recycled paper tile particularly special is that they could pass for slate. Available in five colors (black, charcoal gray, light gray, sand and a pale beige), the recycled paper tiles are perfect for any home, traditional or modern. They are lightweight, durable and easy to install, qualities that anyone can appreciate, even artists and popup shops. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.6/10 - Popularity: 45% | Activity: 86% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Recycled Paper Tiles:** Utilizing eco-friendly materials like Richlite and Paperstone to create chic and stylish tiles. - **Triangular Shape:** Incorporating unique triangular shapes for added aesthetic appeal and customization. - **Lightweight and Durable:** Creating tiles that are easy to install and withstand the test of time. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Interior Design:** Opportunity to offer sustainable and stylish flooring options for eco-conscious consumers. - **Architecture:** Providing architects with versatile and customizable materials for creating unique and visually appealing designs. - **Art and Pop-up Shops:** Offering lightweight and easily installable tiles for creating temporary and trendy installations. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Naturalistic Mosaic Design Tiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mosaic-wall-tiles.md) - [Versatile Remolded Linoleum Tiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flaxwood.md) - [Recycled Resin Panels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/know-new-plastic.md) - [Performance-Driven Minimalist Tiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minimalist-tile.md) - [Natural Stone-Informed Tiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ceramiche-keope.md) - [Removable Tile Decals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chasing-paper.md) - [Repurposed Waste Transit Tiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jeffrey-miller.md) - [Waffle-Like Patterned Ceramic Tiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cubik.md) - [Textile-Topped Table Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tumble-tables.md)
