Porcelain vs Ceramic: Do you know which is best to use?
When you look at tile most people don’t know the different benefits between porcelain and ceramic just that they are similar but the price can be significant.
The clay used in manufacturing are different, as well as, the temperatures used to bake them. One of the biggest difference is how much water they absorb, this can be very important when selecting which one to install and where. Porcelain absorbs less than 0.5% and ceramic 1 – 3% water.
