Porcelain tiles in car showrooms

 
 
Space has come to be a premium commodity in recent times. Especially when it comes to acquiring commercial space to serve as a car showroom in up-market localities, proprietors tend to settle for the bare minimum space that is necessary and take to intelligent means to create an illusion of an abundance of space, by employing a few interior design tactics that have come to be almost a standard norm for car showrooms today.
Part of the strategy is creating well-lit interiors with light walls and transparent glass walls to create an illusion of a vast expanse of space to showcase the sparkling new swanky autos. Light colored flooring is also essential to this ploy but this almost always comes with a huge disadvantage – it’s far from easy to maintain!


Stains of all sorts including tire streaks and oil spills can be difficult to camouflage. The biggest challenge faced by those entrusted with the maintenance of impeccable flooring is tire marks that refuse to leave and grease stains that pose to be a grim reminder of even the smallest of mishaps.
The simplest of irritants such as dust can catch the eye quickly on light floors and this can be a huge taint to the reputation of the otherwise nice-looking showroom. The hunt for a flooring material that has minimum wear and tear and is resistant to staining had resulted in several of these car showrooms opting for ceramic and other toughened tiles; but the best was yet to come…

Porcelain Tiles have perhaps become synonymous with a ‘prayer answered’ for car showrooms – these variants of ceramic tiles are what car dealers are turning to because they always look tidy and a little dust over is all that is usually necessary to make them look as good as new! The stain resistance of Porcelain Tiles is what makes them truly special – these are made by firing a mixture of extremely fine clay and quartziferous sands at extremely high temperatures, which in turn makes them much stronger than ordinary ceramic tiles.

Being made of very hard material, porcelain tiles are highly scratch resistant and even if a scratch manages to tarnish its surface, it is barely noticeable thanks to the consistent composition of these hardy porcelain tiles. Water or oil based substances find it very difficult to seep into Porcelain Tiles, which have a less than 0.5% absorption making them extremely stain resistant. Porcelain Tiles are also highly favored for their extra-smooth finish which saves expensive polishing costs at the time of floor-laying, despite which they are highly slip-resistant. With so many positives, why so many car showrooms opt for Porcelain Tiles as against any other flooring option is no mystery!
