One, What is matte brick?
Matte tiles are the opposite of polished tiles. Matte tiles do not undergo polishing, which avoids glare and can be used on background walls without being too glaring. Additionally, non-polished tiles generally have better slip resistance.
Two. What is glazed brick?
Glazed bricks and polished bricks are similar in appearance, as they are produced by adding patterns and glazing to polished bricks. The glaze applied does not penetrate deeply into the brick, resulting in a very thin glaze layer on the surface of the brick. This glaze layer has rich patterns, vibrant colors, and a smooth, glossy appearance.
Three, which is better: matte bricks or glazed bricks?
1、Comparison of decorative effects
Matte bricks have a relatively simple pattern and texture because the color and pattern are fixed during the manufacturing process. Glossy bricks, on the other hand, have a rich and colorful pattern, and virtually any pattern can be printed. Therefore, glossy bricks have a more beautiful and elegant decorative effect.
2、Comparison of anti-pollution performance
Matte bricks, due to the potential for small bubbles on their surface, are easily prone to accumulating dirt and stains. Many manufacturers apply a protective coating to the brick surface to mitigate this, but the lifespan of this coating is relatively short, leading to the brick becoming dirty over time. Gloss tiles, on the other hand, have a surface that is printed and glazed, offering better stain resistance.
3、Comparison of abrasion resistance
The glazed tiles have a thin, glossy layer that is not very durable. In contrast, the matte tiles, which undergo polishing and grinding directly on the substrate, are relatively more durable.
