Tile has been a popular building material for centuries. Just walk through any European city, and you'll see it on the floors and walls of palaces and castles.
Today, tile flooring is one of the most popular choices among homeowners. This is because it's durable and stain resistant. It also won't harbor bacteria or odors and has superior temperature transference properties, meaning it can make you feel chilly or hot.

Class 4 includes porcelain tile, a heavier and dense ceramic type. Anything above is meant for commercial and institutional spaces.
