How to choose the right home tile

Tile classification to clarify, only to find out the type of tile, can not be fooled in the choice of tiles. Tiles are divided into two categories, namely glazed tiles and non-glazed tiles. Glazed tiles are generally used in kitchens and bathrooms, while non-glazed tiles are mainly used in living rooms and other areas.

The professional angle is divided according to the water absorption rate of the tiles. There are five categories: The first type is porcelain tiles (water absorption rate ≤ 0.5%), and the market mainly includes polished tiles, industrial tiles, and glazed matt floor tiles; The second type is enamel tiles (0.5%10%). There are two kinds of interior wall tiles and glazed high-gloss non-slip floor tiles on the market.

In general, the lower the water absorption rate, the better the quality, the better the decorative effect, and the more comfortable to use.

Select suitable material

Kitchen, bathroom, balcony and other areas, most floor tiles use matt non-slip tiles, to prevent the soup soup water to make the floor slippery, so the choice of non-slip tiles is the first. The current prevailing specifications are 100×100, 800×8000, and 600×600. In the living room, aisles, and outdoor walkways, where the specifications are generally 600×600 or more, the material selection area is relatively wide, and it is mainly determined based on the affordability of consumers.

Professionals advise consumers that the best choice is to choose a tile with a better material, because the tile decoration and wood floor decoration is different, the tile is very cumbersome to redecorate, it is best to be a decoration in place, do not lose due to small.

Focus on brand technology

The domestic tile brand's design style and color, etc., have been in line with international standards, manufacturing process and technology has been very mature. Among the building materials whose national standard is higher than the European standard, ceramic tile is one of the few building materials. Some domestically produced products are not inferior to well-known foreign brands, but their prices are much lower.

For example, the National Standard Test Method for Ceramic Tiles is a temperature of 150°C and a pressure of 0.5 MPa. However, the internal control standard of Nobel ceramic tile, which is a well-known brand in our country, is allowed to leave the factory only after seven cycles of circulation at a temperature of 180°C and a pressure of 1.0 MPa.

Therefore, these domestic first-line brands are very cost-effective, and choosing a domestic brand consumer will not suffer.

Four-step pick secret trick

There are tips for buying tiles. In general, the principle of buying tiles is: one look, two listens, three tests, and four measurements.

A look: the color of the tile should be uniform, the surface finish and flatness should be better, the surrounding rules and the pattern should be complete. Extract a few pieces from the same packing box, and compare whether there are defects such as color difference, deformation, lack of edges, and less angles.

Listening: When tapping with a hard object, the crisper the sound, the higher the degree of porcelainization and the better the quality. Can also be the left hand thumb, index finger and middle finger clip a corner of the tile, easy to hang down, with the right index finger hit the lower part of the tile, such as the voice clear, sweet ears for the top grade, such as sound dull, cloudy for the next product.

Three tests: the water droplets on the back of the tile, see the speed of water infiltration after spreading, generally speaking, the slower the water absorption, indicating that the greater the density of the tile, the better the quality; vice versa, the faster the water, indicating that the density is sparse, its quality Not as good as the former.

Four quantity: The higher the accuracy of the tile side length, the better the effect after paving. Buying high-quality tiles is not only easy to construct, but also saves man-hours and accessories. With a tape measure, there is no difference in the size of each tile, and the highest precision is the top grade.

Consumer Tips: Misunderstanding of Tiles

Misunderstanding: The thicker the tiles, the better

The quality of a tile is not its thickness but its own texture. At present, the development direction of international architectural ceramic products is light, thin, strong, durable, and personalized.

Misunderstanding 2: The polished tiles are not slippery

The polished tile has a high degree of finish and good flatness on the brick surface, and can fully contact with the sole, thereby increasing the friction between the brick surface and the sole, achieving a non-slip effect.

Misunderstandings: The matt brick is not easy to clean

In fact, most of the glazed layers on the surface of the matt bricks have been specially treated to be wear-resistant, non-slip, non-absorbent, and easy to clean.
