Explore Tile type
Choose from our core tile material types based on where the surface will be installed, how it needs to perform, and your desired design aesthetic.
Porcelain Tile
Porcelain tile is an incredibly dense, water-resistant material commonly specified for high-traffic areas such as floors, bathrooms, kitchens, and commercial interiors. It is the ultimate choice for projects that demand a refined surface that withstands heavy everyday use.
Ceramic Tiles
Ceramic Tiles are widely used for indoor walls, custom backsplashes, and decorative surfaces. Lighter and easier to cut than porcelain, they are a practical, budget-friendly option for spaces where design flexibility and vibrant surface finishes are the priorities.
Vitrified Tiles
Engineered for extreme durability, our Vitrified Tiles offer a dense, low-porosity surface specifically designed for heavy commercial and residential flooring. They are the go-to specification for areas where uncompromising strength and scratch resistance are critical.

Frequently Asked Questions About Tile Materials
Which tile material is best for floors in high-use areas?
For high-use floors, porcelain tile and vitrified tiles are commonly preferred because they are dense tile materials suitable for regular foot traffic. The final choice should depend on the tile finish, thickness, surface rating, and installation area.
How do I choose between different Tile Types?
Choose porcelain tile for versatile floor and wall use; ceramic tile for indoor walls, backsplashes, and decorative areas; and Vitrified Tile for dense flooring surfaces. The right tile material depends on traffic, water exposure, design style, and project type.
Are Ceramic Tiles suitable for floors or only for walls?
Ceramic Tiles can be used on some floors, but they are more commonly selected for indoor walls, backsplashes, bathrooms, kitchens, and decorative surfaces. For heavy-use floors or commercial spaces, check the product specification before choosing ceramic as the final floor tile material.
What tile material should I choose for bathrooms and kitchens?
For bathrooms and kitchens, select tile materials based on moisture levels, cleaning needs, surface grip, and whether the tile is for a floor or a wall. Porcelain tile and Vitrified Tiles are commonly used for floors, while Ceramic Tiles are often used for walls and backsplashes.
What is the difference between porcelain and vitrified tiles?
Porcelain tile is known for its dense tile body and versatile use on floors and walls. Vitrified Tiles are made through vitrification and are commonly selected for dense, low-porosity flooring surfaces. Both can be strong options, but the best choice depends on the product specification and intended application.
