    Choose tiles according to different places to pave.

    1. Toilets, kitchens, and balconies are recommended to use polished tiles, which are wear-resistant, durable, high-temperature resistant, and acid-alkali resistant (economical and applicable).

    2. It is recommended to use full-glazed tiles in the living room, with clear texture, strong three-dimensional sense, rich colors and high gloss (moderate).

    3. It is recommended to use microcrystalline stone floor tiles for study and bedroom, and the three-dimensional sense of color and texture is better than that of full glaze. (**Most expensive).

    The quality of floor tiles is very important, because the frequency of stepping on floor tiles is very high, and it is very difficult to replace, once damaged, it is necessary to destroy the original ground decoration to replace and repair, so good floor tiles are very necessary. Now there are many types of floor tiles, the characteristics of each material are different, and the environment is different, you can choose according to your actual needs.

    All-over bricks

    The so-called full-body brick refers to the fact that in the distribution process, all the powder distributed on the press preparation table is the same powder, and the ceramic tile after firing is the same pattern and color from the bottom to the surface. The whole brick is unglazed, so it is named because the front and back of the material are the same. Generally speaking, full-body bricks are more wear-resistant, but they are not as rich in color as glazed bricks.

    glazed tiles

    Glazed bricks are bricks whose surface has been glazed. The surface is fired with glaze and layered, and the main body is divided into two kinds: clay and porcelain clay, the back of the clay fired is red, and the back of the porcelain clay fired is gray-white. The surface of glazed bricks can be made of various patterns and patterns, which is richer than polishing to color and pattern, because the surface is glaze, so the wear resistance is not as good as polishing.

    Polished tiles

    Polished brick is a kind of bright brick made by polishing the surface of the whole brick body, which belongs to a kind of whole body brick. Compared with the whole body brick, the surface of the polished tile is much smoother. Polished tiles are hard and wear-resistant, making them suitable for use in most indoor spaces except washrooms and kitchens.

    On the basis of the use of seepage technology, polished tiles can make a variety of imitation stone and imitation wood effects.

    Vitrified tiles

    In order to solve the problem of easy dirtiness of polished tiles, another kind of vitrified brick appeared. Vitrified tiles are actually full tiles. Its surface is smooth but does not need to be polished, so there is no problem of polishing porosity.

    Vitrified tile is a kind of strengthened polished tile, which is fired at high temperature, and the texture is harder and more wear-resistant than polished tile. Undoubtedly, it's just as high. Vitrified tiles are mainly used for floor tiles.

    The principle of choosing the size of the floor tile is that it should be selected according to the size of the space, and the appropriate size should be selected within the limited area and budget.

    The purchase of floor tiles is generally calculated by the number of pieces, in order to avoid confusion of units, the amount should be calculated in advance, which can be calculated in the following two ways:

    Calculated according to the number of pieces: the amount of tiles required for decoration = decoration area of each tile area [1 + 3% (loss)].

    Calculated according to the area: the amount of tiles required for decoration = the number of square meters of tiles required for decoration + 5% scraps + 5% margin.

    Note: The area of the purchased floor tiles should be about 105% 110% of the actual paving area.
