What are the differences between marble tiles and natural marble?
Marble ceramic tile is actually a kind of ceramic tile product with natural marble lines and patterns. It does not belong to the variety of marble itself, but the better looking marble lines are adopted on the board surface, which essentially belongs to ceramic tile. The complete surface texture of natural marble is formed after millions of years of crustal movement. Natural marble belongs to stone, while marble ceramic tile belongs to ceramic tile. The two are not the same variety.
The marble tile mentioned before is actually a kind of ceramic tile, so its characteristics are the same as ceramic tile. Ceramic tile is a kind of acid and alkali resistant porcelain or stone, which is formed by grinding, mixing, pressing, glazing and sintering of refractory metal oxide and semi metal oxide. It is called ceramic tile for construction or decoration. Its raw materials are mostly made of clay, quartz sand, compressed after high temperature, etc., with high hardness.
In addition, compared with marble, ceramic tiles have the advantages of easy processing, transportation and installation. The price is relatively cheap and has been widely used in the market.
In fact, the whole body marble on the market is also ceramic tile. A kind of ceramic tile called whole body brick is only printed with marble lines on the surface of the ceramic tile, so it is called whole body marble. Full body brick is a kind of wear-resistant brick. Although there are varieties such as infiltrated full body brick, the design and color of full body brick is relatively inferior to glazed brick. As the interior design of is more and more inclined to plain color design, all-round brick has increasingly become a fashion. All-round brick is widely used in the floors of decoration projects such as halls, corridors and outdoor walkways. Generally, it is less used in the wall, and most anti-skid bricks belong to all-round brick.
As the rich choose the ceramic tile and marble decoration materials, the share of ceramic tile and marble decoration products has been declining year by year. In order to find their own high-end decoration materials, they are also in the market.
In general, marble tiles are different from natural marble, and the price also has a large range. Which product to choose mainly depends on the owners' love and whether they have enough decoration budget.
In a word, it is suggested to use stone for those with money and ceramic tile for those with ordinary conditions.
