The benefits of ceramic tiles and azulejos.
2 minutes reading time.
When laying new tiles, there are naturally many considerations: color, price, pattern, etc. The choice of material from which the tile is made is also an important decision that should not be taken lightly. In this blog, you will read about the three advantages of ceramic tiles compared to cement tiles:
Durability
Maintenance
Design possibilities

1. Sustainability, both in production and at home:
More and more people care about the environment. People are increasingly inclined to choose sustainable products. Not only because this contributes to a better future, but also because adjustments in the home can pay off in the wallet!
The thermal properties of ceramic tiles contribute to energy efficiency in the home. They retain heat, allowing rooms to heat up faster and stay at temperature longer. This can lead to a lower energy bill.
Finally, Azulejos are made from only natural raw materials (clay and sand) and are produced in an energy-efficient manner, resulting in lower CO2 emissions compared to cement tiles! Tiles that are incorrectly fired are also easily recyclable.
All in all, a conscious choice. Both for the planet and for the wallet!
2. Maintenance; less work, fewer scratches.
Because ceramic tiles are pressed under high pressure, they become very hard. This gives them good resistance to wear and stains. No more scratches on your floors, walls, or other tiled surfaces!
Another advantage is that ceramic tiles retain their color very well. Whereas cement tiles may fade in the sun, ceramic tiles will retain their color 100%. Whether it's a monochrome tiled wall or one with patterns, ceramic tiles will always maintain their attractive and new appearance!
3. Endless design possibilities
With a wide range of design options, ceramic tiles are perfect for consumers who want to make their interior unique and personal. From modern patterns to classic textures, ceramics offer diverse options that suit different interior styles.
For all the azulejos we produce, we make molds. We have a large variety of designs that we can use directly. From natural patterns to geometric designs. However, if desired, we can also create new molds. This allows you to bring your own designs and ideas to life. From shapes to color combinations.
