Meet Granite Tiles

cognition

Natural granite is composed of mica, feldspar and quartz. Granite belongs to the rock category and is used after mining. Because the name is based on the pattern, it is more flowery, so it is called "granite". Most of the most common airport halls, high-speed rail stations, bus stations, and shopping malls are made of natural granite. The reason why granite is used is that its hardness is more than twice that of ordinary stone, and it is wear-resistant and easy to break. Rationality is above ordinary stone and tiles. As a natural stone directly taken from nature, granite is non-renewable, so "granite tiles" are derived

Advantages of Granite Tiles

High hardness, not easy to break

Granite tiles combine the advantages of natural granite and ceramic tiles. Under the condition of high hardness, they can have the characteristics of light weight and environmental protection. In practical applications, granite tiles can not only save processing and transportation costs, but also maintain the characteristics of not being easily damaged.

The key technology of granite tiles lies in multi-step granulation, multiple mixing, precise particle ratio, and large-tonnage press molding. Its technical route is completely different from that of full-body marble tiles, and it is also more advanced than previous granite tiles.

Easy to maintain and durable

One of the most important advantages of using these floor tiles is its durability. Granite tiles are very hard, and even if heavy objects are dropped, the floor will remain intact. When coffee, juice or other beverages are spilled on it, it will rarely leave any stains. It can also be used in high traffic areas as it is less prone to wear or damage.

Multiple specifications, multiple thicknesses, multiple styles

Different from the traditional square tiles and imitation granite tiles, the whole body granite tiles can be made into various imitation natural granite effects such as fire surface, lychee surface, and stone surface. Multi-color, one stone with many faces, and a wide variety of designs and colors, providing designers with a broad space for imagination and design.

Granite tiles have developed to the present, and the specifications and styles have developed to diversification. The specifications cover 150×300mm, 300×300mm, 300×600mm, 600×600mm, 600×900mm, etc., and the thickness can be 3 cm. In the field of granite tiles, China Synchronization with Italy is already possible.

Acid resistance, alkali resistance, corrosion resistance

Granite tiles surpass natural granite in terms of texture, color, texture, and application effects, and have a strong and obvious particle touch. The decorative effect is closer to the surface effect formed by natural stone weathering. At the same time, the tiles are hard, wear-resistant, anti-fouling, With the performance advantages of acid and alkali resistance, ultra-low water absorption, and sustainable production, it has great development potential in terms of social benefits and market prospects.

Wide range of applications
Granite tiles are not only widely used in outdoor projects, but also began to be used indoors. "There are two types of granite tiles now, one is matte granite, and the other is softly polished. Therefore, granite tiles can be widely used. It is suitable for all kinds of indoor and outdoor floors and walls (outdoor dry hanging), because of the added anti-skid function, it is more suitable for slippery spaces such as kitchens, toilets, balconies, public bathrooms, swimming pools, and outdoor slopes.

Granite tile thickness: 6MM (thin), 10MM, 15MM, 2CM, 3CM, etc.
Granite tile specifications: mainly 600X600MM, now there are 600X1200MM, 800X800MM, 400X400MM, 300X600MM, 150X300MM, 600X900MM, etc. on the market.

The difference between granite tiles and marble tiles

There is a big difference in the element texture of the two. Granite tiles are made of imitation granite. Compared with marble, the texture structure
There are big differences. Unlike the texture of marble tiles, which are lines and stripes, the texture of granite tiles is spot-like. The overall feeling is relatively simple, and the style is simple and elegant.
route.
In terms of texture, most of the granite tiles are full-body tiles, while the marble tiles are glazed tiles. Compared with glazed tiles, whole body tiles have a harder texture.
Acid-resistant, wear-resistant, and good skid resistance, it can be used not only for interior decoration, but also for outdoor, public areas and commercial spaces.
In the application area, the powerful performance of granite tiles makes it not subject to outdoor restrictions, and can be durable in indoor and outdoor decoration; while marble tiles are more
For interior decoration, the effect is elegant and atmospheric.
