Glazed Tile

Glazed tile is a type of ceramic tile with a glaze layer applied to the surface and fired at high temperatures. Its core structure consists of the body and the glaze layer — the body may be earthenware or stoneware (less commonly porcelain), while the glaze provides the tile with rich colors, patterns, and surface textures such as glossy, matte, or satin finishes. The glaze layer effectively prevents moisture penetration, enhances stain resistance, and makes the tile easy to clean. By adjusting the glaze formulation, it can simulate a variety of decorative effects such as stone, wood grain, or metallic finishes, offering high aesthetic appeal. Based on usage, glazed tiles can be subdivided into wall tiles (typically earthenware with higher water absorption, suitable for dry wall surfaces) and floor tiles (typically stoneware with greater strength, suitable for flooring). They are widely used in kitchens, bathrooms, living rooms, and other spaces for wall and floor coverings, making them a mainstream tile category that combines beauty and practicality.
