– hardness,

– resistance to mechanical damage,

– chemical resistance,

– anti-slip,

– frost resistance,

– abrasion, etc.

What and how are tiles made of?

The process of producing ceramic tiles consists of precise and consecutive steps. Before the product reaches its final form, it must be processed using modern and innovative technologies. They are:

Mixing

Creating a special mixture of minerals used in the production of the tile. The most popular components of the mixture are clay, sand, feldspar and water. This process creates a liquid mass, which is then transferred to huge tanks loosening the prepared material.

Homogenization

The process of homogenization, i.e. firming, is the next stage in the production of ceramic tiles. Stirring with special mechanical shovels allows to keep the liquid form of the mass. In this process, it is also possible to dye the mixture with colored substances and dyes.

Drying and maturing

The next stage is drying the liquid mass. Due to the use of high temperature, it is possible to evaporate excess water from the mixture. The result of drying is a solid material in the form of granules. The material produced in this way is subjected to aging.

Ironing

The dried granulate is transferred to special machines – presses, which give the product a flat shape. During this phase, it is possible to additionally dye and add color to the resulting article.

Shaping

It is at this stage that the ceramic tiles acquire their final shape. The size and outline of the product depends on the mounted stamps and their precise settings.

The next stages of production are: glazing, firing and quality control.

The most prominent positive features are:

– durability of the material – no need for frequent renovations and repairs,

– savings – the material can be combined with various technologies. Ceramic tiles can be used in an underfloor heating installation, as a heat carrier, as well as an insulator of the generated energy.

– production of tiles from natural raw materials – a health factor for humans, as well as harmless to the environment,

– low price of products,

– the multitude, availability and a huge selection posed to create a dream project. The tiles can be an imitation of other common materials.

– many other.
