The term ceramic which should not be confused with the stone of the same name, refers to synthetic tiles made from clay at very high temperatures. Ceramic tiles have a very high density and a very high resistance to wear. They are regularly used for floor covering.
Besides their high resistance they offer a large aesthetic panel with a choice of colors and important mass effects.
The ceramic tiles can be installed in matte or polished finish. However, it is important to know that most of these tiles (even mats) can be grinded and polished to reveal exceptional gloss.
Two methods are generally proposed to renovate ceramic tiles, the honed finish and high gloss finish. In most cases there will be a stripping and/or grinding and a hardening of the tiles to make the renovation as sustainable as possible. More information ...
Because of their low porosity, all treatments with emulsions should be avoided on this type of floor.
