What is Porcelain Tile?

What is Porcelain Tile?

Porcelain Tile is a very sustainable product. It is absolutely harmless for the environment as it is basically made of clay and water and then fired at very high temperatures.

Accurately chosen and installed, porcelain tiles will last as long as you want them to last and maybe even longer than the structure itself! Porcelain tile is an extremely strong, durable, scratch and frost resistant material which has similar characteristics as those of a natural stone.

Sustainable flooring solution

Porcelain tiles are completely recyclable into such building materials as cement, brick or artistic tile mosaics. Porcelain tiles are very resistant to water, stains, smells and bacteria.

Porcelain tiles contain no sealants, waxes or other chemicals that could release Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) into the environment. The durability of porcelain tile alleviates the need for polishing or sealing. Porcelain tile can be used on any surfaces: floors, walls, countertops, ceilings, pools, tubs, showers, outside walls and even on unstable surfaces, such as boats, for example.

Porcelain tiles are easy to maintain

Tile is easy to clean by using the mildest cleaning products and the only tools needed for cleaning are brooms and mops, which contribute to better indoor air quality. Unlike granite and marble, pathways do not occur when using porcelain tile flooring, which reduces the use of chemicals and equipment to buff and polish.
