Commonly Asked Questions

Having the right know-how can help you make the right decision while choosing ceramic tiles. The following are some commonly asked questions about ceramic tiles.

• What are ceramic tiles made from?
Ceramic tiles are made from clay which is heated on high temperatures in a kiln. This process hardens the clay.

• How Are Porcelain Tiles Different From Ceramic Ones?
Porcelain tiles are a subtype of ceramic tiles, which are made from light-coloured clay. Most ceramic tiles, on the other hand, are made from red or white clay. Porcelain tiles are more durable and moisture-resistant than the ceramic tiles.

• Where can I install ceramic tile?
Ceramic tiles can be installed anywhere as they can be used both indoors and outdoors. They are commonly used in kitchens and bathrooms.

• Can I Use Ceramic Tiles Outdoors?

While ceramic tiles are not the typical outdoor settings choice, you can use ceramic tiles outdoors, provided they have certain features. To start with, the ceramic tiles must be frostproof and unglazed, especially if you plan to use them as floor tiles. Additionally, the absorption rate of the tiles should not exceed 0.5%.

• Should I Use a Sealer on My Ceramic Tile?

A ceramic tile is usually glazed, which makes them stain-proof. Thus, putting on a sealer is not of much use. In fact, it would be almost redundant to put a sealer on a ceramic tile in most cases.
