In the bathroom, choosing the right tile is not only about aesthetics, but also about functional needs such as waterproof, water-resistant and easy to clean. Here are some common and very suitable types of tiles for bathrooms:
Ceramic tiles
Ceramic tiles are a common choice for bathroom floors and dry, with strong water resistance and wear resistance. Due to their high density, tiles have very low water absorption and are suitable for humid environments. And there are many types of tiles, which can imitate materials such as wood and marble, providing a variety of design options.
Terracotta tiles
Ceramic tiles have moderate colors and rich patterns, suitable for bathrooms or floors. However, because they are ceramic tiles, terracotta tiles have a slightly higher water absorption rate, so it is recommended to choose styles with waterproof glaze on the surface.
Mosaic tiles
Mosaic tiles are not only flexible in decorative effects, but also suitable for irregular surfaces or small spaces. Glass mosaic tiles are particularly popular, waterproof and in a variety of colors, suitable for creating a bright bathroom effect.
Natural stone tiles
Natural stones such as marble, granite and slate bring a natural and luxurious feel to the bathroom. However, stones usually need to be sealed regularly to prevent water absorption and staining.
Hexagonal tiles
Hexagonal tiles are the best choice for design, often used in bathroom floors or wall shoulders to create a unique geometric beauty. Not only are they beautiful, but they are usually made of porcelain and have good waterproof properties.
Cement tiles
In recent years, cement tiles have become very popular in modern and industrial style bathroom designs. They have a deep sense of pattern and a rough low temperature feel, but need to be sealed regularly to prevent water damage and mold.
Ceramic tiles (anti-slip tiles)
For bathrooms, anti-slip function is important. Tiles have various surface treatments, such as rough surfaces or designs with tiny textures to increase friction and keep the floor safe.
When choosing bathroom tiles, in addition to considering the style, you should also make sure that the tiles have good waterproof, anti-slip properties and are easy to use to ensure their long-term durability.
