There is one moment that makes builders, architects or just plain homeowners shake in their boots more than any other: the choice of flooring.
There are so many options available to us, and they all need to be kept in mind when choosing. However, that is not why we should be frightened and perhaps run into a hasty and wrong choice.
The option that best manages to combine aesthetics with technique is definitely porcelain tile. In this article in particular we deal with the best marble effect tiles. A timeless timelessness that now comes within everyone’s reach.
Characteristics of porcelain tile
Before we delve into the beauty of marble and how tiles are able to perfectly replicate its aesthetic characteristics, let’s dedicate to the characteristics of the material. We are, of course, talking about the much-loved porcelain tile, which has now established itself as the leader in indoor flooring and beyond.
Porcelain tile has reached this level of popularity and success certainly not by accident. Behind the increasingly popular choice are first and foremost technical reasons, which make it the best material.
The main reason is one, which may seem obvious, but remains one of the main ones: price. Porcelain tile, even of the best Italian quality, has the advantage of a very competitive price compared to more valuable materials such as parquet or marble.
Putting price aside come the technical characteristics, which we could also summarize in one word: resistance. But resistance to what? For example:
Water
Moisture
Abrasions
Splintering
Impacts
UV rays
Frost
All these elements can do nothing against the properties of porcelain stoneware, which thus becomes the ideal material. We find it in the floors of every home, but also in wall coverings, exteriors, industrial or commercial settings.
Is this not enough for you? You can also add to it the ease of cleaning. If with other materials you need special products or even machinery, with stoneware there will be no such problems.
