What You Should Know
What is the difference between porcelain and ceramic tiles?
Because of their durability and hardness, porcelain tiles have traditionally been used in commercial applications -- think Flinders Street Station in Melbourne and commercial kitchens for example. Nowadays, for similar reasons, more and more people choose porcelain tiles for their homes.
Porcelain, or fully vitrified tiles, do not have a glaze over them like traditional tiles. Rather, the colour runs right through the tile from top to bottom, allowing them to be polished, honed, or produced in a natural finish, quite like natural stones like granite and marble.
Because they don't have a protective glaze, most porcelain tiles require special maintenance like sealing, This is what we specialize in!
