Ideal for High Traffic
Floorings suffer damage from high movement. Porcelain tiles are the most resilient variety and, therefore, highly suited to office environments. Their wear resistance also makes them suitable for your home. If you are a pet owner, you will definitely be concerned about your furry companions damaging floorings with their sharp claws. But you need not worry with porcelain tiles. Their wear resistance makes them suitable for pets with sharp talons and claws. You can throw parties at your home with the comfort of knowing that these tiles will be easy to clean and will show great resistance to high movement rates.
Water Damage
One major problem faced by home owners in colder climates is the issue of tiles cracking from freezing moisture. Water expands in freezing temperatures. This poses a danger to tiles which can crack under the strain. But since porcelain tiles are so firm, they can withstand this stress much better than other varieties. They have higher resistance owing to their low porosity, high density and uniformity. Due to low porosity, there is a much lower chance that water will seep through to ruin the tiles.
