Porcelain tile is considered one of the most popular and durable tiles on the market due to its high density, stain and water resistance, and unmatched array of design possibilities. As with ceramic, porcelain tiles are made by mixing raw materials and baking them in a kiln, but additionally are placed under tons of pressure and fired kiln at a higher temperature.  The slight variations in the creation process leads to a less porous and higher density tile that is impervious to water and stains, and overall increases the tile’s lifespan.  Porcelain is strong enough to withstand heavy foot traffic, can be installed outdoors, is easy to clean, and has endless style options for the ideal high-end tile choice.
