Whilst ceramic tiles are suitable for wet room walls, we would only recommend using porcelain on a wet room floor. Porcelain tiles are denser than ceramic and therefore less porous, harder and more durable long term. Another important factor when choosing your wet room floor tiles is slip resistance.
Do you need special tiles for wetroom?
The most suitable types of tiles for a wet room floor are Porcelain, Natural Stone or Mosaic tiles. Because of there construction we do not recommend the use of ceramic tiles on a wet room floor, they are however perfect for the wet room walls.
Are all tiles suitable for bathrooms?
All tiles, whether they are ceramic, porcelain or natural stone will become slippery to a certain extent when they are covered in water. This is why people generally have mats in bathroom so they can step out onto them from the shower or bath.
