Ceramic tiles occupies a large part of the home decoration. The purchase of ceramic tiles has a great influence on the decoration style. Poor purchase may reduce the grade of the whole family decoration. If you want to make the decoration look tall, let's take a look at how to buy ceramic tiles.

1. Check the label:

The product packaging box should have the factory name, factory address, product name, after-sales service phone number, specifications, quantity, trademark, production date and the implemented standards. For porcelain tiles, check the CCC certification mark, interior design decoration tiles, It is advisable to choose products whose radionuclides meet Class A requirements.

2. Take a closer look at the appearance:

The glaze of a good-quality ceramic tile should be smooth and delicate, the glossy glaze should be shiny and bright, and the matt glaze should be soft and comfortable. Under sufficient natural light or fluorescent light, the bricks are placed 1 meter away for vertical observation, and there should be no obvious glazed defects. The patterned brick pattern should be delicate and lifelike, and there should be no obvious defects such as lack of color, broken lines, and misalignment. The shading and trademarks on the back of high-quality ceramic products are clear and complete, with little glaze or defects.

3. Splicing effect:

The size deviation of good tiles is small. Put a batch of products vertically on a flat surface to see if there are any irregularities. Looking at the level of flatness, close the edges of the two bricks together to see if there is a gap. Good products have little deformation, and the brick surface is smooth and beautiful after paving. Look at the color difference of the product, put a few bricks together, and check carefully under sufficient light. The products with different shades between the products have poor overall effect after paving.

4. Knock to hear:

Tap the tiles lightly and listen carefully to the sound. A better quality product sounds crisp and sweet. Poor quality products have a short firing cycle and low firing temperature due to improper raw material formulations, and will make a "empty" sound when tapped.

5. Weight and weight:

Take a look at the weight of tiles. Generally speaking, tiles of the same specification have lower water absorption and better internal quality.

6. Compare varieties:

Floor tiles are divided into glazed floor tiles and unglazed floor tiles according to their glazed surface conditions. Glazed floor tiles are mainly used for floor decoration of bathrooms and kitchens, and used in conjunction with interior wall tiles. Most floor tiles have been polished on the surface to become polished tiles. Most polished tiles have a water absorption rate of less than 0.1% and are also called vitrified tiles. The polished tiles have a mirror-like surface and are high-end ceramic products.

7. Tile corners:

When paving tiles, many consumers and workers have encountered the difficulty of aligning the edges and corners. This shows that the straightness of the tiles may not pass the test. When choosing tiles, randomly select a few pieces and use their eyes to follow the edges of the tiles. Look at the diagonal line separately. If you find the phenomenon of "curling edge", it means that the straightness of the tiles is not enough. If not, it means that the straightness of the tiles basically passes the test. This is also a small trick to buy tiles.
