Glazed and unglazed tiles

Glazed tiles are distinguished by a glassy layer applied to their surface. Due to it, the finishing material is wear-resistant, as well as resistant to moisture and dirt.

On the other hand, tiles without a glazed coating are distinguished by their naturalness and eco-friendliness, when the products undergo only one firing during the manufacturing process.
