TILE WITH IMITATION GROUT LINE
A tile for use as a covering on a floor, wall, or other surface comprising a top section disposed on a rigid core layer, wherein the top section comprises in some embodiments a veneer layer, or another layer or coating of material, such as polyurethane, upon which at least one design element may be imparted, such as through printing processes. The inventive tile in some embodiments described herein further comprises an exposed portion, or a plurality thereof, configured to provide a highly realistic imitation of a grout line. The inventive tile may also comprise at least one interconnecting mechanism, wherein such interconnecting mechanism may be formed on the same side of the tile as the exposed portion. In at least one embodiment, the layer or coating of material is disposed in covering relation to the exposed portion, and alternatively, a protective layer may instead be applied onto the exposed portion.
