Spanish tiles are known to give any room a classic and expensive look. However, many people also find the price of these tiles a bit off-putting, because they are priced substantially higher than other types of tiles, especially synthetic ones. So what makes ceramic tiles from Spain the best option?

On the one hand, Spanish ceramic tiles are not permeable and therefore resistant to many elements. They can resist fire, smoke, toxic gases and burns. These tiles have a glaze incorporated into their surface that repels fire. In addition, it is also resistant to dirt or stains. Any type of dirt does not adhere to or is absorbed by these tiles. Therefore, it will make any cleaning and maintenance very easy to do, since this dirt stays on the surface to be easily cleaned. In order for these tiles to stay clean, only small sweeps, washes or vacuums should be carried out, and water will suffice. There is no need for harsh, abrasive disinfectants. The fact that they resist dirt makes them very beneficial for places that require high sanitary standards.

For whatever reason, if someone mistakenly uses strong detergents for these ceramic tiles, there would be no cause for concern because they are not easily damaged and are in fact resistant to them. In addition, its design and color will not change even with exposure to elements such as salt water and sunlight. No wonder those centuries-old Spanish castles still look splendid after all those years.

Now that I think about it, the main argument against these tiles, which is their price, shouldn’t be too bad. After all, because they are durable and last long, they would not require any replacement, unlike getting more affordable tiles that eventually need to be replaced from time to time.

So choosing which Spanish tiles would fit into an area can be challenging considering there are a number of varieties of these tiles these days, colour, pattern, design and size. There are many options to choose from, and it would be great to have a choice before heading to the home improvement or hardware store.

A big factor to consider before design and color should be function first. Actually, this shouldn’t be much of a problem, as any type of Spanish ceramic tile can withstand both indoor and outdoor conditions. But there are some varieties that are better adapted to certain conditions. For example, vitreous ceramic tiles would be ideal for temperate areas, as they withstand freezing conditions. On the other hand, for those from the tropics, porcelain tile varieties would be ideal since they are the ones that best resist water absorption.

Once those factors have narrowed down the options for Spanish tile, the rest of the “important” details such as color and pattern coordination can be considered. There are varieties of Spanish tiles that would be ideal for large floors because they are cut in large patterns, while there are some that would look better as part of a mosaic, making them better in large settings such as hotel lobbies, government buildings, and large areas. open public.
