Ceramic Tile

A durable, fired-clay tile used primarily for kitchen backsplashes, countertops, and flooring. Ceramic tile is available in an enormous range of colors, sizes, patterns, and textures, from classic subway tiles to intricate mosaics. It is water-resistant, heat-proof, and easy to clean, making it one of the most popular backsplash materials. Porcelain is a denser, more water-resistant variety of ceramic tile.
