Advantages of tile flooring:
- Durability. Ceramic, when glazed, has a tough outer coating and is waterproof.
Porcelain, a larger format, is completely vitrified. Vitrification is a process that removes all gaps and makes something ultra-strong and completely waterproof; these tiles are also used outdoors as they stand up to frost and other weather conditions.
- Easy maintenance. It's resistant to stains, odors, and dirt, so all you need to do is sweep. Periodically, mop with a manufacturer-approved cleaner.
- Eco-friendly. This material is natural, made from clay, so it doesn't attract pollen, dust or other allergens. That improves indoor air quality.
