How to Effectively Choose and Purchase Mosaic Tiles

Antiskid, wear resistance, water proof property, extremely strong moldable and color rich are mosaic tiles born excellent properties. Mosaic tiles especially kitchen tiles are widely applied in household decoration because of beauty and practicality. Common mosaic tiles include ceramic mosaic tile, marble mosaic tile, glass mosaic tile and metal mosaic tile. They have different property and application.

Mosaic tiles have become some consumer main choice in interior room decoration. But faced with mosaic tiles different property and function, we need to effectively identify and distinguish their advantage or shortcoming so that we can get high quality product. By following, let's come to introduce several attentive purchase points.

Neat specification

The foremost quality of a product is the appearance. The evaluation factor of mosaic appearance is the specification. Thus, we need to pay attention to whether there is same specification between particles or same size for each piece, whether particle edge is neat. Check whether it is flat to place single piece mosaic to horizontal ground. Also, see whether there is thick emulsion behind single mosaic.

Rigorous process

Excellent process is the guarantee of quality. Here we need to learn how to distinguish mosaic process. Firstly, mosaic tiles glaze should be even, flat and bright. We can feel the antiskid degree when touching glaze. Secondly, moderate thickness is necessary. Thickness determines the density. High density leads to low water absorption rate. Lastly, inner texture must be good. Mosaic tiles after glaze within inside layer is of good quality.

Low water absorption rate

Mosaic lasting and enduring quality is much critical factor to ensure household environment comfort and clear while water absorption rate is an important factor affecting mosaic lasting and enduring quality. Proper water absorption rate can ensure wall, ground dry and clear. So we should also test it. Drop the water on mosaic back. It is the performance of good quality when water-drop outflows and on the contrary when it penetrates.

Picture and chromatism

Mosaic process and beauty is determined by picture and chromatism to a large extent. Good mosaic has distinct texture, luster, picture and subtle process. There is no phenomenon of obvious color leakage, dislocation, fail connection or uneven darkness. It is of small chromatism, similar color tone and splendid luster in the condition of same brand and model.

Grade and hardness

Any product has different grade which is the critical identification to measure product quality. Mosaic has totally five grades and they are classified from aspects of hardness, tenacity and strength. In order to ensure long-time non-cracking, non-deformation, non-absorption of pollution, mosaic should firstly ensure properties of high hardness, good tenacity and difficult cracking.
