Polished Tile

Polished tile is a type of full body tile whose surface is mechanically polished to achieve a high-gloss finish, making it much smoother and shinier than regular full body tiles. During production, the tile body is formed using a hydraulic press applying thousands of tons of pressure and then fired at temperatures exceeding 1200°C, endowing it with numerous good properties. It features high hardness, with a Mohs hardness typically between 6 and 8, and good abrasion resistance, generally rated above PEI Grade 4, enabling it to withstand long-term, high-frequency foot traffic and friction, making it ideal for high-traffic areas such as shopping malls and hotel lobbies. Its water absorption rate is badly low, usually below 0.5%, offering good waterproof and moisture resistance, which makes it suitable for moisture-prone spaces like kitchens and balconies. Aesthetically, polished tiles also perform exceptionally well — through techniques such as ink infiltration, they can mimic a wide variety of patterns, including stone and wood textures, in color ranges from pure white and beige to deep gray and black, making them suitable for modern minimalist, light luxury, and European-style interiors.
