The difference between stone and tile
Aug 04, 2021
From four aspects to analyze the difference between stone and ceramic tile
1. Product Nature:
Stone material: from the product nature, stone materialbelongs to a kind of natural material, after cutting, grinding and other processes, its material itself has not changed.
Ceramic tile: ceramic tile is a refractory metal oxide, after grinding, pressing, sintering and other processes, the formation of porcelain or stone material.
2. Price comparison
Ceramic tile: in terms of price, the price of ceramic tile is cheap and expensive. After the purchase of ceramic tile, you can find the workers to shop and stick it.
Stone material: and stone material needs the ability after processing shop to stick, so stone material price can be a few more expensive than ceramic tile, nevertheless some ceramic tile and stone material price are equal also.For example, the price of this natural stone from Africa is 700 yuan/square meter after processing, while the price of ceramic tile with similar color and texture is 620 yuan/square meter. There is not a big difference in their prices.
3, Practical comparison
Stone: Stone is a very durable material, often used in some important architectural decoration, the service life is very long.
Ceramic tile: the impact resistance of ceramic tile is relatively poor, easy to be broken in the process of transportation and paving, and the cost of consumption is relatively large.
4, Color difference comparison
Stone material: because stone material is a kind of natural, so its chromatic difference can be more obvious, and surface pattern also does not resemble ceramic tile so rich.However, the overall effect of stone paving is very beautiful and very classy, which is incomparable to ceramic tile.
Ceramic tile: because ceramic tile later period passes artificial processing to make, improve somewhat in chromatic difference respect, because raw material and the factor of processing technology nevertheless, existence certain chromatic difference also is inevitable.
