Porcelain tile is a type of ceramic coating manufactured with advanced technology. It differs from other coatings due to its burning process (high temperature), the noble raw materials that make up its mass and also the water absorption that is very low, being <0.1% for technical Porcelain tiles and < 0.5% for enameled Porcelain tiles.

 

This type of ceramic coating, which originated in Europe (Italy), started to gain prominence in Brazil in the early ’90s. Porcelain tile was conceived for application of flooring; however, due to its high technical quality through its characteristics allow the most diversified use possible, such as the coating on the façade of buildings, etc. Its technology enables the reproduction of the beauty of natural stones, but with much superior technical characteristics.
