Tiles for the stove

Tiles covering the stove are an important decorative factor. Therefore, particularly high demands are placed on them.. Like everywhere, yes and here you can not discuss the taste, but the quality of the material must be impeccable. One cracked or scratch-covered tile disfigures the entire stove. The offer here is very rich: from factory tiles to handmade tiles, from standard to unique products. Here we must explain all the advantages and disadvantages. As a rule, the manufacturer of large quantities of products, produced mostly by machine, provides much higher accuracy of shape and colors than the manufacturer working in a short-series system. Of course, hand-made ceramics give a very good effect in rural furnaces, but then you should order one more piece from each mold, because the same glaze, but fired in another furnace, looks completely different in practice and does not fit into the original set of tiles. Manufacturers of large quantities of pieces work much more evenly thanks to the automation of work. You can order from them even after a year additionally quite well matching tiles, because they undergo a very accurate production process, in which deviations of shape and color are reduced to a minimum. Industrially manufactured tiles are also easier to lay, because their external dimensions have minimal deviations. On the other hand, the deviations of handmade ceramics are often very significant and when laying it we would have to, due to the different widths of the gaps between the tiles, compensate for shape inaccuracies. Manufacturers today offer tiles of various shapes and colors. Price differences between manufacturers, primarily glaze coatings, do not correspond to a large extent to quality differences. So we have to compare similar tiles, from different manufacturers to pay attention to their quality.

If we decide on tiles with a glued shaft or compact tiles, we can put them up like a wall and save ourselves a lot of work in this way. Then the need to make zduƄska buckles is eliminated, and alignment to a straight plane is much easier.
