THROUGH-BODY PORCELAIN TILE
According to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), porcelain tile is a type of ceramic tile made by the pressed dust method. Ceramic tile is one of the oldest building products known. Once available to only the most affluent, through-body tile is considered one of the most fashionable choices for floors, walls and countertops.
Through-body tile is derived from mixtures of clay, sand and other natural minerals that are shaped into tile and fired at high temperatures. The pressed dust method results in a porcelain tile with a density so high that water absorption is less than 0.5%. Depending on project objectives, porcelain tile may be purchased glazed, unglazed or polished.
DOUBLE LOADED TILE
The Double Loading process is similar to the single powder full body wear-resistant process except that a second loading of very fine colored powders is applied to the surface creating the aesthetic beauty. Double loaded porcelain is manufactured with two layers of porcelain pressed together and then fired. The top layer is pressed to the base porcelain layer under high pressure. This top layer is comprised of porcelain clays randomly infused with various color pigments that create an infinite range of color combinations and patterns emulating that of natural stones. This bonded porcelain is then fired.
