A tile or ceramic tile on the floor is one of the popular floor coverings for rooms where there is a heavy load on the floor covering, as well as for rooms in which there is high humidity or temperature.
Types of floor tiles
Three types of tiles are distinguished according to the mode of production. The first one is pressed, when a special mixture of clay for the production of tiles (in professional language it is also called "dough") is passed through a special press where it is given the necessary size, thickness and shape, and then the drying process and, if necessary, coloring tiles, coating it with enamel. Another method is extrusion, when the finished tile dough is placed in a special machine that rolls it and produces a long flat ribbon, which is then cut into squares of the required size and dried. The third method of tile production is manual molding, however such material is very expensive, therefore it is used for repairs extremely rarely.
