Long-lasting
Ceramic is a durable, hard-wearing material that always looks as good as new
Ceramic is a supremely durable material that does not age, and the fact that it is easy to clean also helps prevent wear. This is why a ceramic floor is practically eternal and always looks as good as new. Due to its exceptional hardness, ceramic is one of the surface covering materials with the highest resistance to abrasion and foot traffic, a key factor in determining durability. This means it does not need to be polished and does not show signs of aging caused by wear. And as demonstrated by comparative life cycle analysis, ceramic is environment friendly because it needs to be replaced less frequently than other materials. If you are planning a home renovation project, ceramic guarantees superior aesthetic results and a high level of thermal insulation, resulting in higher performance and lower maintenance costs.
