A flat, usually thin-walled, glazed or unglazed product made from ceramic mass, used for external or internal cladding of walls and wall panels, as well as for flooring.
Glaze is a shiny or enamel glassy layer in the form of a thin film (0.1 - 0.3 mm). The chemical composition of the glaze and the ceramic shard is different. Their thermal expansion also varies in size. For strong adhesion of the glaze layer to the shard, one must strive to ensure that the thermal expansion of the glaze and the shard is equal.
Raw materials for the production of ceramic slabs are divided into two main groups: clayey (plastic) materials and non-clayey materials (wasting additives, fluxes or fluxes).
Ceramic granite is divided into the following types: Technical, Decorated, Glazed.
Giorgio Armani is a great couturier, the richest and most successful designer of our time, without whom it is pointless to talk about both the fashion of the past and the fashion of the present.
Unglazed tiles consist of one layer - a ceramic shard. The color is obtained from the raw material or is colored by metal oxides throughout the tile body (tile).
The high performance of ceramic tiles is due to careful research into production technology, but the main reason is the firing temperature of the tiles, which varies from 950 to 1250 degrees Celsius.

Porcelain tiles are a type of ceramic tile produced by pressing and have a water absorption of less than 0.5% (EN 14411) - the lowest for all floor and wall tiles.
The word “ceramics” comes from the Greek word “keramos”, which means pottery clay. In Ancient Greece, Keramos was the name given to a large clay storage facility in Athens.
The first ceramic products - bricks and roofing tiles - were widely used by the Romans. However, over time, their production practically disappeared and only from the middle of the 12th century it was revived in European countries.
