Buy Porcelain Tiles from Travertine Direct

Travertine Direct Are UK Based Market Leading Porcelain Suppliers

Known for its combination of stunning translucency and strength, Porcelain continues to grow in popularity. The name “Porcelain” derives from an Italian word “porcellana” which translated means “cowrie shell”. It’s easy to see how this name came to be as Porcelain’s translucent surface certainly has a shell-like resemblance. Porcelain is in fact a manmade material, although it’s created from natural materials including clay and sand. These materials are heated up to temperatures in excess of 1,400 degrees Celsius and the finished porcelain product has an incredible toughness, which is even tougher than granite.

In addition to durable qualities, Porcelain tiles can also be made to look like natural stone and even wood finishes. However unlike some natural stone, Porcelain tiles are completely non-porous and that makes them the ideal choice for bathroom environments or areas where high hygiene standards are required. Our Porcelain tile finishes include:

•         Wood Effect Porcelain Tiles
•         Stone Effect Porcelain Tiles
•         White and Cream Porcelain Tiles
•         Grey and Black Porcelain Tiles
