Classification of Mosaic Tiles

Feb. 13, 2020

There are many classifications of mosaic wall tiles according to different materials and manufacturing processes. The fused glass mosaic manufacturer lists the main types of mosaic for reference?

● ceramic mosaic tiles

▲ Sintered from quartz, silicate, fluoride and other raw materials at high temperatures, it shows a variety of treatments such as solid color, moire, Venus, and crystal, and because of its small size, it can be used in space freely.

Ceramic mosaic is waterproof, moisture-proof, wear-resistant and easy to clean. It can be said to be the most durable mosaic.

Its disadvantage is that it requires labor and materials. The production of ceramic mosaics with the same specifications consumes twice as much energy as glass mosaics, and the price is much higher than glass mosaics.

● Crystal mosaic tiles

Crystal mosaic is divided into: hot-melt crystal glass mosaic, cold spray crystal glass mosaic. It is colorful and decorative, and its value is more than one grade higher than ordinary tiles. The beautiful thing is fragile, and it is not suitable to go to the ground.

Leaf Glass Mosaic

Leaf Glass Mosaic

Leaf glass mosaic is the perfect combination of ceramic and glass technology. High-temperature fused crystal mosaics can be made according to customers' needs. The colors are gorgeous and creative, and have many characteristics such as acid and alkali resistance, never fade, flame retardant, easy to clean and so on. The products are mainly 300 × 300mm each, and the hexagonal cloth mesh is attached at the bottom, which is as easy to construct as ordinary mosaics.

● metal mosaic tiles

Metal mosaic, also known as gold mosaic, metal foil mosaic, and handmade gold mosaic, is a special high-end, luxurious handmade mosaic. 99.99% of the metal (gold, silver, copper, platinum, etc.) is processed into dozens of 100,000 thin slices through more than a dozen special processes, and then manually decorated on the surface of the original embryo such as glass and resin, and then passed through Processing, and finally made into gold foil mosaic.

The decoration effect is the strongest and the matching difficulty is the highest. The low-key luxury is installed, and the KTV box style of the eighteenth-tier cities is not good.

Stainless steel metal mosaic is more durable than ceramic mosaic, with high hardness, corrosion resistance, rust and oil resistance, and easy cleaning.

● Shell mosaic tiles

The distribution areas of domestic shell mosaics are mainly concentrated in Duchang, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, and Hunan. Poyang Lake in Jiangxi, Dongting Lake in Hubei, and Taihu Lake in Jiangsu are rich in shells.

● Electroplated mosaic tile

Crystal plating and ceramic plating according to material

The crystal plating is generally 6MM, and the metal luster above the color is dazzling.

Ceramic electroplating has electroplated gold, electroplated silver, electroplated rose gold, electroplated magic color, etc. It is generally 4-10mm thick, and the color has a metallic texture, which is currently more popular.

● Marble mosaic tiles

Marble mosaics are very rich in color and variety, and they have a wonderful natural texture. However, marble mosaics have poor acid and alkali resistance and are not as waterproof as ceramic mosaics.
