Often more times than not, our sales representatives get asked what the difference is between a ceramic tile and a porcelain tile. Although both are made from a clay substance, the major difference between the two is in its durability. Porcelain tile is made with a finer, more pure type of clay that allows for a stronger floor and long lasting wear. Where ceramic tiles are softer and easier to cut than its counterpart, porcelain has great design capabilities as well. Matted, unglazed, or high glossed, porcelain is great of any room in the house including the highest trafficed areas of your home. Ceramic, as a porous substance, absorbs mostiure faster than porcelain. Still confused? Stop in and talk to our sales staff information on all things tile.
