Ceramic & porcelain and their many benefits
You often find ceramic & porcelain tile installed in a great many commercial facilities such as schools, hospitals and clinics, restaurants, and more. The lifespan and durability have a lot to do with these placements, but so does the fact that this flooring is hypoallergenic. There’s no place for allergens to hide, nor any place that harbors bacteria growth, so it can be a true asset in the area of health and sanitation. That makes it just as important for your own homes as well.
Tile flooring is fired in hot kilns, which creates a very dense and hard material. This really comes in handy in homes where there is an abundance of traffic and activity. It means you’re far less likely to see the effects of wear and tear anytime soon. It holds up well under repeated traffic so you won’t have to worry about replacing your floors more often than you want to.
The decorating possibilities with ceramic & porcelain tile are nearly endless. While porcelain offers a through-body color scheme, and doesn’t show cracks and chips as easily, ceramic is covered with brightly colored glazed that can leave a wide open door for decor schemes. Whether you enjoy solid colors, amazing patterns or intricate mosaics, you’ll find a wealth of options at your fingertips with these materials.
