Porcelain Tiles

Dense, vitrified ceramic tiles fired at high temperatures to produce a hard, low-porosity surface suitable for floors and walls. Large-format porcelain tiles (600 × 600 mm to 1200 × 600 mm and larger) are popular in open-plan kitchen-diner extensions for their clean aesthetic. Porcelain tiles are highly durable, frost-resistant, and easy to clean. Laying large format tiles requires a flat, level base and may need a specialist tiler.
