What is Polished Porcelain Tiles?

Porcelain tiles are often confused with ceramic tiles, but there are some notable differences between the two. Porcelain tiles are made using clay, limestone, feldspar and other minerals that melt together at very high temperatures to create clay porcelain mixtures. These mixtures are then shaped into tiles or bowls and fired in kilns at even higher temperatures of approximately 2,300 degrees Fahrenheit (1,250 Celsius). This firing process not only makes them more durable than ceramic tiles but also gives them their glossy sheen.

What Are Polished Porcelain Tiles?

Also known as glazed porcelain tiles, polished porcelain tiles are incredibly versatile because they can be used both inside and outside. This makes them a popular choice for both residential and commercial properties. They are available in a huge variety of colours, finishes and patterns. There are three different types of polished porcelain tiles on offer, namely polished china, high gloss concrete effect tile and cast concrete effect tile.

How Do You Care For Polished Porcelain Tiles?

Since polished porcelain tiles are non-porous, it can be easier to keep them clean than ceramic tile. For regular cleaning, you may only need to use soap and water. To avoid scratching them, use soft sponges or cloths when washing. Be careful not to leave harsh chemicals like bleach or window cleaner on your tiles for long periods of time since they can damage your tiles if left for too long.
