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 core layer. Such a core layer may be comprised of a rigid material, such as densified foam, or stone plastic composite, or some other material, such as a mineral fiber composition or some other dimensionally stable material. Such a top section may comprise a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) layer and/or a wear layer, which may be comprised of at least one paper layer saturated with at least one resinous compound. 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.
