Which brand of tiles is better than Hongyu's?

Personally, don't just look at the brand, the quality of the same brand at different prices is different! It is more practical to master the method of choosing tiles! Brief introduction of tile varieties and three-step code of brick selection

At present, there are many kinds of ceramic tiles on the market, such as permeable tiles, vitrified tiles and non-slip tiles, which can usually be divided into the following categories.

Glazed tile: refers to the ceramic tile with glazed surface. This kind of brick is divided into two categories: first, it is fired with clay. Because of its high water absorption, it must be glazed, so it should be called "ceramic tile" accurately. This kind of brick has low strength and is rarely used now; The other is fired with porcelain clay. In order to pursue decorative effect, glaze is also fired. This kind of ceramic tile has compact structure, high strength, low water absorption and strong anti-pollution ability, and its price is slightly higher than that of ceramic tile fired by porcelain clay. Glazed tiles fired by porcelain clay are widely used in home decoration at present, and 80% buyers use this tile as floor decoration material. The trick to distinguish these two kinds of bricks is simple: the back of the ceramic tile fired by clay is red, and the back of the ceramic tile fired by porcelain is white. Among the ceramic tiles fired with clay, the wall and floor tiles produced in Spain are very popular in Beijing at present because of their unique decorative effect, but the price of this kind of brick is relatively high, and it is generally used for middle and high-grade home decoration.

Full-body brick: this is a kind of unglazed porcelain brick with good anti-slip and wear resistance. Generally speaking, what we call "non-slip floor tiles" are all-in-one bricks. This kind of brick is moderately priced and very popular with consumers. Among them, the exquisite pattern of "flower infiltrated brick" is even more attractive.

Polished brick: The whole brick becomes polished brick after polishing. This kind of brick has high hardness, so it is very wear-resistant.

Vitrified brick: this is a kind of porcelain brick fired at high temperature, which is the hardest of all tiles. Sometimes polished tiles are scratched, but vitrified tiles are still safe and sound. But this kind of brick is expensive, so it is not necessary to use it for home decoration. Ceramic tiles can be divided into floor tiles, wall tiles and waist tiles according to their functions.

There are many kinds of floor tiles, and there is a lot of room for choice. According to the color, it can be divided into glazed tiles, non-slip tiles, glazed tiles and polished tiles. Although the names are quite different, there is little difference in processing technology and composition. The common size of floor tiles is 400 ~ 600 mm square format, and sometimes even large-format floor tiles of 1000× 1000mm are used to make the room look luxurious. However, if large-size floor tiles are used in small-sized rooms such as kitchens and bathrooms, it is inevitable that the loss is too large and it is not economical enough. Therefore, the kitchen and bathroom should use 300 ~ 400 mm square special craft tiles, such as non-slip tiles and wear-resistant porcelain floor tiles. The price of common floor tiles is between 2 ~ 10 yuan.

Wall tiles can be divided into vitrified tiles and printed wall tiles by color. Common specifications are mostly 200mm×200mm or 200mm×300mm. At present, the relatively new design idea is to install high-quality 400mm×400mm floor tiles on the wall to form a seamless sense of harmony and comfort, but the cost is higher than that of ordinary wall tiles.

Most of the waist bricks are printed bricks. In order to meet the specifications of wall tiles, the width is set to 60mm×200mm, which acts like a beautiful belt around the wall tiles, adding color to the monotonous wall and changing the atmosphere of the space.

Cultural stones are often used to decorate the walls or floors of rooms with individuality and natural style. It is a specially treated ceramic tile, and its surface imitates the unevenness of natural rocks and the reflection of crystals. The interior decoration has a sense of reality. Because of its special technology, its cost is relatively high, generally 200 ~ 500 yuan per square meter. Selection method of ceramic tile

When decorating a house, you should buy tiles. There is also some knowledge about how to buy value-for-money and satisfactory tiles. Generally speaking, the principle of choosing ceramic tiles is: look, listen, three drops of water and four feet.

First look at the appearance. The color of ceramic tiles should be uniform, the surface smoothness and flatness should be better, the periphery should be regular and the pattern should be complete. Take out four or five pieces from a box to see if there are any defects such as color difference, deformation and lack of edges and corners.

Second, listen to the sound. Tap with a hard object, the clearer the sound, the higher the porcelain degree and the better the quality. You can also hold a corner of the tile with your left thumb, forefinger and middle finger and hang it down easily. Tap the middle and lower part of the tile with the index finger of your right hand. If the sound is crisp and pleasant, it is the top grade; if the sound is dull and stagnant, it is the inferior grade.

Third, the dripping test. You can drop water on the back of the tile to see seepage velocity after the water is dispersed. Generally speaking, the slower the water absorption, the greater the density of tiles; On the contrary, the faster the water absorption, the rarer the density and the better the internal quality.

Fourth, the ruler. The higher the accuracy of the side length of ceramic tile, the better the effect after paving. Buying high-quality tiles is not only convenient for construction, but also saves working hours and accessories. Measure the size and periphery of each tile with a tape measure, and the one with high accuracy is the top grade.

In addition, observing its hardness, the ceramic tile is top grade, with good hardness, strong toughness and no breakage. Scrape each other with the edges and corners of tile fragments to see whether the broken fragments are fine or loose, brittle or soft, leaving scratches or loose powder. If the former is top grade, the latter is poor quality.
