Ceramic floor paving stone and imitation stone are two different materials, and there are some differences in their production, properties, and applications.
Material: Ceramic pavement stone is a ceramic material made from natural clay and other raw materials, which is fired at high temperatures. Imitation stone is an artificial material made through molds and special processes, imitating the appearance of natural stone.
Appearance: Ceramic floor tiles have a relatively simple appearance; Imitation stone is made by imitating the appearance of natural stone, which can simulate various types of natural stone.
Durability: Ceramic floor tiles have good durability and can resist the effects of daily use and environmental factors, such as wear resistance, high temperature resistance, and chemical corrosion resistance. The durability of imitation stone varies depending on the type of material and manufacturing process.
Installation and maintenance: Ceramic floor tiles are relatively easy to install and can be constructed using traditional tile laying methods, but they have low water absorption and poor adhesion to cement mortar. The installation and maintenance of imitation stone are relatively simple, and the handling and maintenance are also straightforward.
Price: The price of ceramic floor paving stone is usually more affordable, and compared to natural stone, the price is more affordable. And the price of imitation stone is relatively low, which can provide a similar appearance to stone, but the price is more affordable.
