Ceramic clay tiles
Ceramic floor and wall tiles are produced by firing non-metallic minerals at high temperatures. The term ceramic in its broadest sense covers ceramic, porcelain, terracotta and quarry tiles. Each type of fired clay tile has its own properties suited to different applications. Read More
Ceramic tiles are made from natural clay, sand and water. They are usually glazed with a enamel or glass coating to produce a textured or gloss finish. Glazed ceramic tiles are moisture and stain resistant.
Porcelain tiles are primarily produced using koalin, a china clay. Fired at high temperatures, they are fully vitrified making them very dense, strong and waterproof. Porcelain tiles are generally suitable for indoor or outdoor use.
Terracotta tiles are typically made red and brown clays pressed into shape and fired at 600-1000°C. They are porous unless glazed, but glazing dulls the natural colours of the fired clay. Many are handmade.
Quarry tiles are made from clays pressed or extruded under high pressure in a similar process to clay brick production. Fired at up to 1100°C, they are fully vitrified, making them impervious to water and chemicals.
Water absorption (expressed as the mass of water absorbed by a ceramic material under specified conditions) is used as a common quality control test for ceramic tiles.
