What are the classifications of tiles?
The types of ceramic tiles can be divided into glazed tiles, whole tiles, polished tiles, vitrified tiles and mosaics according to their manufacturing technology and characteristics. Of course, tiles with different characteristics have their own best uses. If you know enough about tiles, you can make the best use of them when decorating your room.

Full-body brick:

The surface of the brick is not glazed, and the material and color of both sides are the same, hence the name. Full-body bricks are more wear-resistant, but the color is not as good as glazed tiles. Classification is divided into non-slip brick, polished brick and permeable brick. Scope of Application Halls, walkways and outdoor walkways are widely used, and are generally less used for walls.

Glazed tiles:

Glazed brick is a kind of glazed brick. Generally speaking, glazed tiles are richer in color and pattern than polished tiles, and play a role in pollution prevention. However, because the surface of glazed tiles is glazed, the wear resistance is not as good as polished tiles. Classification is divided into ceramic glazed tiles and porcelain glazed tiles according to raw materials. According to different glossiness, it can be divided into matte and bright. Scope of application Bright glazed tiles should be used in the kitchen, not matt glazed tiles, because oil stains enter the brick surface and are difficult to clean. Glazed tiles are also suitable for bathrooms, balconies, etc.

Polished tiles:

Polished brick is a brick made by grinding and polishing the whole brick. Compared with the rough plane of the whole brick, the polished brick is much smoother. This kind of brick has high hardness and is very wear-resistant. Based on the application of flower infiltration technology, polished tiles can make various stone-like and wood-like effects. Classification can be divided into infiltration polishing brick, micro-powder polishing brick, multi-tube cloth polishing brick and microcrystalline stone. Scope of application Except the bathroom and kitchen, most other indoor spaces can be used.

Vitrified brick:

Vitrified brick is made of quartz sand and mud according to a certain proportion, and then polished until it is bright, without polishing. The surface is smooth and transparent as a glass mirror, which is the hardest of all tiles. Vitrified tiles are superior to ordinary glazed tiles, polished tiles and ordinary marble in water absorption, edge straightness, flexural strength and acid and alkali resistance. However, the vitrified brick is not perfect, and its defect is that the pores are exposed after grinding, and dust and oil are easy to penetrate. The classification is mainly floor tiles. Belonging to a polished brick. Scope of application Vitrified bricks are suitable for living rooms, bedrooms and walkways.

Mosaic:

Mosaic is a special kind of brick, which generally consists of dozens of small bricks to form a larger brick. Acid-resistant, alkali-resistant, wear-resistant, waterproof, strong compressive strength, not easy to break. Classification it is mainly divided into ceramic mosaic, marble mosaic and glass mosaic. Scope of application Because of its small size and rich colors, it is widely used in small indoor areas, walls and outdoor walls and floors.
