Ceramic tiles come with a number of benefits like – they are easy to maintain, affordable, durable, fire-resistant, easy to install and are available in versatile designs. All these benefits lead to wide applicability of these tiles.

Flooring is the stereotypical application of ceramic tiles. Most residential premises make use of ceramic tiles as they are available in plethora of designs and are cost-effective to be installed in large spaces.

Ceramic tiles also can be utilized on both internal and external walls. Ceramic tiles do not absorb heat and therefore are a feasible option for external walls. They can create a cooling effect which will be beneficial in the summer months too. On internal walls; ceramic tiles mostly serve aesthetic purposes as they can change the color of the room or add patterns to it.

3] Kitchen Counters

Additionally, they come in attractive colors and patterns at affordable prices, which makes them highly suitable for usage in patios.
