subject: This Is Why Quartz Tiles Are Popular [print this page] Recent trend is in favour of quartz tiles and is being widely acclaimed at international level. Today, every tile store is full of quartz and is claimed to be fastest moving tile at present. They are now counted among the top selling item in the market if the not the highest sold item. Certainly, there must be something about these tile for which they bag so much of attention.
Strength comes out to be the first in the list of its qualities. Because these are compact in nature they are solid and hard. Granite is though considered as strongest tile but quartz tile tops all. Their strength comes from the weight. As they are solid and compact their weight is comparatively more than other materials. Hence, they are heavy and needs proper handling while installation. Their weight sometimes makes people slightly constrained towards quartz but its other benefits attract people to make small compromise. In exchange of its other qualities its weight hardly becomes a hurdle.
Its strength also brings the quality of resistance towards breakage and scratching. This feature becomes more advantageous when the content of quartz is 93%. Such tiles can withstand any pressure while cutting and installation process. Where as, other tiles do not always cooperate while cutting and installation. It is really a huge pain when they crack or simply break while working with them.
Quartz tiles have another plus point which is very rare in other tiles. They have a great atheistic appeal which is most of the time are sought after feature over practical use. Their atheistic feature is another reason behind their popularity. From selling point of view this becomes strong point. The variety in colours and patterns are other plus points for having this tile. The quartz slabs are thus being preferred for distinct uses, which turns out to be ideal for any place to be tiled.
The most supporting feature of quartz tile is their ability to resist stains and scratches. Often tiles lose their charm due to constant scratches and stains. But this can be avoided if the tile surface can restrict stains to penetrate the surface so as to shun them becoming stubborn if left for longer. Similarly, the surface of quartz is hard and hence small scratches do not affect the surface. Maintaining the beauty of tiles becomes more difficult when there are pets and children at home. But with quartz, there is no necessity to maintain them carefully. So, quartz tiles are practically executable tiles in all terms.
