Moreover, the ceramic floor tiles are resistant to stains and odours, unlike carpets for example.
Moisture and fire resistance:
The dense body of a ceramic floor tile will not allow moisture to accumulate. Also, the ceramic doesn’t burn or emit fumes.
Because of their resistance to heat, ceramic tiles can be used for countertops, where hot pots can be placed without producing any damage to the surface.
Unlimited designs:
With its wide variety of colours and patterns, ceramic generates unlimited design options. The ceramic colour is not consistent, but this gives your floor charm and personality.
