The many benefits of ceramic tile
The life cycle of ceramic tile
Ceramic tile is one of the longest lasting products on the flooring market. Unlike laminate, vinyl, and carpet, it does not have to be replaced. Installed ceramic tile lasts a lifetime.
Ceramic tile promotes quality indoor air
With good reason, quality indoor air is a concern. Volatile organic compounds referred to as VOCs, contribute to a variety of health problems. They can cause something known as sick building syndrome. The extremely high temperatures in the kilns that fire ceramic tile prevent volatile organics from being released into the air. Grouts and adhesives that are low, or have no VOCs are available.
Ceramic tile manufacturers are conscious of the environment
The factories reuse materials and water. Only a negligible amount of scrap is sent to landfills. Wastewater is sent to treatment facilities.
