Listed below are some of the popular finishes and their applications.

 

Glazed finish:

A glaze is a glass layer that is often added to ceramic and porcelain tiles. Glazed tiles offer a number of benefits and are available in matte, glossy and textured finish. Apart from the aesthetic advantage, they are easy to clean. The glaze layer makes them non-absorbent in nature.

 

Glossy finish:

Such tiles have a shiny surface coating and they make the ideal option for walls and floors. Glossy tiles have a reflective surface and can brighten up a space. They can be used for the kitchen or bathroom walls and backsplashes. They are easy to clean and can impart a modern look to your space.

 

Matte finish:

Matte finish tiles have a granular and hard surface with a non-reflective matte finish. They help to create a rustic or traditional look. They can be used as bathroom floor tiles and even in the living area. Moreover, since these tiles are slip-resistant, they can be used in outdoor areas too.

 

Textured finish:

They are ideal for offering a good grip and are slip-resistant. This makes the tile suitable for wet areas like the bathroom and kitchen.

 

Unglazed finish:

Tiles are created from clay that is fired in a kiln. The layer of glaze is applied before the tile is fired. However, unglazed tiles have a natural and earthy appearance as they are devoid of the glaze layer. Their colour is determined by the mineral deposits in the clay. Since unglazed tiles do not have a protective coating, they have the tendency to absorb liquid and can be stained. Unglazed matte porcelain tiles make the perfect option for commercial spaces with high footfall.

 

Honed:

This includes tiles that are glazed or unglazed, with the surface polished in a satin finish. An important benefit offered by these tiles is that they are scratch resistant.

 

Lappato:

This is a form of tile that has been polished but not deep enough to attain the lustre of a full reflective polish. The surface finish has an uneven nature. They can be used for the kitchen and bathroom walls.

 

Polished finish:

The surface finish of a glazed or unglazed tile that has had its surface polished to achieve a high, uniform lustre. Available in a range of options, they offer a luxurious feel.
