Tiles come in so many different materials and all of them have different eco-friendly characteristics. Ceramic and porcelain tiles are easily manufactured from clay, which is a sustainable resource.
However, even quarried stone can make an excellent environmentally-friendly choice since new technologies have allowed those quarries to be reclaimed much faster, preventing and reducing damage to the environment.
Stone tile can also be recycled and lasts a very long time. Limestone (like the on this floor), when it is conscientiously harvested, can even be considered a sustainable resource, too.
Tiles, particularly stone tiles, tend to feel cooler than carpet and laminate. In hot climates, tiles are a particularly attractive choice because of their ability to maintain cooler temperatures in the home.
When you are looking for something beyond the ordinary, you should think about including tile floors in your home. The benefits of tile flooring speak for themselves.
When you want a high quality beautiful and unique floor that can withstand exposure to water, is environmentally-friendly, and natural, the choice is obvious: tiles.
