Now there are various types of floor tiles in the building materials market. Polished tiles, glazed tiles, vitrified tiles and microcrystalline stones tiles. These names often make us dizzy and don’t know where to choose. After investigation, it is found that there are many contradictions in the introduction of the characteristics of the same type of tiles even by the shopping guide in the big brand flagship store. I believe that many people also have the same problem.

The porcelain tile is also called the general marble porcelain tiles. It can be said that it is the general name of a kind of flooring tile. All the floor tiles design with water absorption or less than 0.5% belong to tiles price. It is also the most common type of household porcelain floor tile products. The surface of the tiles are not the glazed rustic tiles and ceramic polished tiles, and the material and color of the opposite side are the same. The anti skid and wear resistance are all good (the surface is relatively rough, the ordinary scratch is invisible). Most of the “skid resistant tiles” we usually refer to are full body tiles.

The advantages of polished porcelain tiles: the price is generally the bottom, and the surface is hard, wear-resistant and skid resistant. When the surface is stained with oil, it can be scrubbed directly with general detergent and metal wire for easy maintenance. Disadvantages: all tiles floor are easy to absorb dirt and scratches. After a long period of use, the surface will be black, yellowed and tarnished, and it will easily become old. It is suitable for balcony, terrace, and some open area.

The ceramic tiles are the vitrified tiles that we often hear, it is a kind of marble tiles made of polishing surface of the tiles. It can be understood as the general floor tiles design of the high light plate. As the surface is polished, its skid resistance and wear resistance are slightly inferior to the full body tiles. However, there are also pores on the surface, which are easy to cause discoloration of flooring tiles price, and the color is relatively single, with few choices. Because of the same water absorption on the surface, polishing tiles are not suitable for use in kitchen and bathroom. It is suitable for the living room, the corridor and so on.

Glazed tiles are made of glaze on the surface of all body tiles. Glazes and colors can also be used to make rustic tiles. Compared with vitrified tiles, glazed tiles have the greatest advantage of good resistance to dirt. Because the glaze seals the pores on the surface of the embryo, it is very difficult for the stains to enter. The anti skid performance of the glazed tiles are also very good, and the surface can burn all kinds of pattern patterns, the optional color is a lot of samples. Because the surface is glaze, the wear resistance is slightly worse than the vitrified tiles, and the surface gloss is also inferior to the vitrified tiles. When the product of the embryo is too loose, it is easy to crack when it meets the heat expansion and contraction. The cement sewage below the cement tiles may return to the surface of the wood tiles. Therefore, the glazed tiles should try to buy the qualified product of the big brand as far as possible. When selecting tiles, we should pay attention to whether the surface is produced by pinholes, cracks, bends, water spots and so on. Suitable for living room floor, kitchen, bathroom wall.

Glaze is a special kind of formula glaze that can be polished on the glaze tiles. It is applied to the last glaze of the glazed tiles, which combines the advantages of the polished and glazed tiles. The glaze is as smooth and clean as the polished tiles. At the same time, the glaze color, such as glazed tiles, is rich in pattern and can be highly selective. The disadvantage is that it is too smooth, and the security of residence has declined. Because of the complex production process, the price is generally higher than the above tiles. Suitable for large spaces, such as living room, dining room, etc.

The medallion tiles are fired on the basis of glazed tiles. The glaze tiles are more colorful and can be layered. The stereoscopic feeling is very strong. Its properties are similar to those of glazed tiles, but the appearance is more gorgeous. The medallion tiles have higher cost in firing, glaze usage and operator configuration, so the price is more expensive. It is suitable for the whole living room (optional for the local tyrants), the decoration of the porch, the background wall of the TV, and the ornamentation of flowers in space.
