Different Materials of Sustainable Tiles

As the demand for ethical building materials grows, eco-friendly tile has become sought-after by environmentally conscious homeowners and designers. Because we believe that luxury shouldn’t cost the earth, our offerings are as stylish as they are resilient.

Recycled Glass Tiles: This collection of sustainable tile is made from material otherwise destined for landfill and produced using efficient energy. Explore our options and you’ll find recycled glass tiles that emulate the look of hardwood, such as Blue Beige 12x12 Matte Brick Recycled Glass Mosaic Tile. Our wall and floor tiles are water resistant and easy to keep clean, suitable for wet areas such as bathrooms and swimming pools.

Porcelain Tiles: Eco friendly porcelain flooring tile combines aesthetics, performance, and planetary health. These tiles mimic the elegant veining pattern and rich coloring of marble without the challenging upkeep. Case in point: the gorgeous Air Superiority Blue 24x48 Polished Porcelain Large Format Tile. Additionally, porcelain tile possesses the strength to endure high footfall, making it a coveted sustainable flooring choice for busy areas like kitchens and living rooms.

Marble Tiles: We carry an extensive selection of sustainable marble stone, including Carrara and Calacatta tile. The veining detail and interesting color variation of natural stone impart a touch of charisma to classic, modern, and transitional spaces. From crisp white to dramatic black, marble provides endless design possibilities to bring your dreamy ideas to life. Our Black 4x12 Polished Subway Marble Tile, for instance, can serve as a striking foundation that pulls an expansive room in and evokes an enveloping and cozy atmosphere.

Applications of Sustainable Tiles

When designing a new space or planning a renovation, sustainable tile is as versatile as it is eco-friendly. Common places to introduce our tiles include:

Kitchens: In kitchens, marble, glass, and porcelain eco-friendly tile serve both functional and decorative purposes. They can be used for the backsplash or as statement flooring, where durability, heat resistance, and ease of maintenance are essential. We carry a wide range of tiles to suit any style of kitchen, from country to contemporary and everything in between.

Bathrooms: Add lasting flair and character to the vanity backsplash, bathtub surround, or shower walls and floors. Non-slip bathroom floor tile that looks like wood turns this utilitarian space into an inviting sanctuary that’s perfect for unwinding at the end of the day.

Living Areas: Walls, fireplace surrounds, and entryways get a makeover with our stunning range of sustainable tiles. Whether used as an accent or over an expansive area, you can be sure of walls or floors that transcend fleeting trends.

Outdoor Spaces: Choose eco-friendly exterior tile to bring visual interest to the patio, deck, garden path, or pool area. We have porcelain, glass, and stone options that can handle harsh weather conditions without deteriorating in quality, even after years of use.

Maintenance Tips for Sustainable Tiles

To get the best results, eco friendly flooring and wall tile installation calls for some preparation. Make sure the surface on which the tiles will be placed is in excellent condition: level, smooth, clean, and dry. Use the right tools and materials, such as high-quality grout and adhesive, as well as the right spacers to maintain the integrity of your tilework.

Keeping wall and floor tiles in a pristine state, too, goes a long way in preserving your eco-friendly investment. Below are simple steps to take:

  • Clean regularly with warm water and a pH-neutral cleaner to keep tiles looking their best.
  • Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive tools that can degrade the surface finish and cause permanent damage.
  • Seal porous tiles like marble as well as grout lines periodically to extend the lifespan of your installation.
  • Wipe spills promptly to prevent staining and discoloration.
  • Inspect tiles and grout lines regularly for cracks and remedy any defects promptly to avoid further damage.

Frequently Asked Questions:

1. Are sustainable tiles more expensive than regular tiles?

Not necessarily. While some sustainable tiling materials can be more costly than others, many options are competitively priced, and the long-term value and performance often offset the initial cost.

2. Can eco friendly floor tiles be used for outdoor applications?

Many of our sustainable tiles, such as porcelain and recycled glass, are hardwearing and can withstand the elements. These properties make them ideal for exterior use, including patio floors, garden walls, and pool areas. When shopping online for tile, always check the product specifications for outdoor suitability.

3. Do sustainable tiles last as long as conventional tiles?

In many cases, sustainable tile flooring is more durable and resilient, especially when made from natural stone, recycled glass, or porcelain. As you explore our selection, you’ll find indoor and outdoor flooring tiles that are resistant to scratches, stains, and moisture damage.

4. What is the best low-maintenance, eco-friendly flooring tile?

Glass and porcelain tiles are watertight and do not need sealing, requiring minimal upkeep to retain their beauty. Natural stone, such as marble, isn’t 100% non-porous and needs special care to enhance durability. The tiles should be sealed during installation and periodically after.

5. Are there design limitations with eco friendly floor tiles?

Not at all. In fact, our collection comes in a wealth of colors, textures, and formats to fit any design vision—from modern and traditional to rustic and industrial. We advise shopping for samples of your favorite tiles to see how they complement your space before committing to a big purchase.

6. Are there sustainable grout and adhesive options for tile installation?

To complete an eco-friendly installation, you can find low-VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) grout and adhesive that promote indoor air quality and environmental safety.
