Type Porcelain Tile Collection

Type is a porcelain tile range from 1867 Floors made in China. Porcelain is fired hotter and denser than ceramic, which is why it takes water, frost and traffic that a wall tile cannot, and an absorption rate at or below 0.5 percent is the threshold that defines it. A matte face holds light rather than throwing it back, which hides dust and water spotting between cleans. The range is made in 1" x 3" and 2" x 2". A small format suits patterned layouts and curved walls, where a large tile cannot follow the surface. It suits walls and floors through the home. Frost resistance means the same tile can carry through to a covered porch or a three-season room.
