About Ceramic and
Porcelain Tiles
Most types of tiles that
are made from clay or a mixture of clay and other materials, then
kiln-fired, are considered to be a part of the larger
classification called “Ceramic Tiles”. These tiles can be split
into two groups, porcelain tiles and non-porcelain tiles. These
non-porcelain tiles are frequently referred to as ceramic tiles by
themselves, separate from porcelain tiles.
More about Ceramic
Tile
“Ceramic” or
non-porcelain tiles are generally made from red or
white clay fired in a kiln. They are almost always finished with a
durable glaze which carries the colour and pattern. These tiles are
used in both wall tile and floor tile applications, are softer and
easier to cut than porcelain, and usually carry a PEI 0 to 3
rating.
Non-porcelain ceramic tiles are usually suitable for very
light to moderate traffic and generally have a relatively high
water absorption rating making them less frost resistant and they
are more prone to wear and chipping than porcelain tiles.
More about Porcelain Tile
Porcelain tile
is a tile that is generally made by the dust pressed
method from porcelain clays which result in a tile that is dense,
impervious, fine grained and smooth, with a sharply formed face.
Porcelain tiles usually have a much lower water absorption rate
(less than 0.5%) than non-porcelain tiles making them frost
resistant or frost-proof. Glazed porcelain tiles are much harder
and more wear and damage resistant than non-porcelain ceramic
tiles, making them suitable for any application from light traffic
to the heaviest residential and light commercial traffic.
Full
body porcelain tiles carry the colour and pattern through the
entire thickness of the tile making them virtually impervious to
wear and are suitable for any application from residential to the
highest traffic commercial or industrial applications. Porcelain
tiles are available in matte, unglazed or a high polished finish.
Features & Benefits Of Ceramic and Porcelain Tiles
Durability:
Ceramic Tile is unparalleled in the floor covering industry in its
durability. If the right product is chosen and maintained
properly, it could easily last the lifetime of the home.
Stain Resistant:
Ceramic tile is, in general, the most stain resistant building
product in the world. Glazed tile, and even some unglazed tile,
resists practically all solutions that could cause staining in
other types of floor covering products.
Hygienic:
The face of ceramic tile will not retain liquids nor will it
absorb smoke, fumes or odours. These properties provide for
excellent hygiene.
Easy
to Clean:
Plain water or a damp
mop is generally all that is required to keep the tile clean.
Scratch and Scuff Resistant:
While no surface is scratch-proof, ceramic tile resists scratches,
scuffs and indentations better than any other floor covering.
Resistant to Fading:
Ceramic tile will not fade due to sunlight or electrical light.
Resistant to Burns:
Cigarettes or fireplace sparks are no problem for ceramic tile.
Environmentally Friendly:
Ceramic tile body is 100% natural.
