Intruction and Description
Starting from Year 2011 but with upgraded quality and designs in Year 2013, Porcelain 3D wood tile is becoming more and more a new fashion in residential or commercial decoration due to its realistic lines texture, natural wood looking and real wood touch feeling.
Porcelain 3D wood tile is a kind of rectified Porcelain body strip tile available in size 150*600mm, 160*900mm, 200*1000mm and 600*600mm. By a regular/flexible tiling combination you could easily get a natural wood decoration style but without the worries of fade or unwear of real wooden flooring or laminated flooring.
Porcelain 3D wood tile is made in Mat-glazed treatment, which enable the tile easily to be cleaned up and maintained, you could use water cleaning directly. Also it's a tile in characters of flame retardant and non-corrosive, it is regarded as a green building materials in our daily life.
Since the wood tile is modeled on natural wood including wood surface and color, it is in a same looking as a real wood whatever you see from a far place or look it closely. As for the sense of touching, due to the In-MAX digital inkjet printing technology and the advanced abrasive processing way, we can completely copy the real wood grain texture, color and the concavity. The only difference, if we have to find out one, it should be the temperature of the floor. Flooring by real wood, you feel warm in Winter and cool in summer but on wood tile, the temperature is always the same cool.
Features
Compared to solid wood flooring and laminated flooring, Porcelain wood tile has the following advantages:
- - Lower cost but longer life in using than solid wood flooring laminate flooring.
- - Easier maintenance than wood flooring.
- - Long life as hundred years except Deliberate destruction of human.
- - Never any fear of water attack.
