One of the flooring or floor tiles that are widely used are ceramics. This type of floor tile is made of clay coated with glazing. There are two types of ceramics, namely glazed ceramics and porcelain tiles or homogoneus tile. In the manufacture of ceramic berglazur is to mix clay material with kaolin, then burned up to 10000 C. This combustion is done so that the resulting ceramics are not destroyed if soaked in water. After that done coating with the printing process on the tile.

While on porcelain tiles starting from grinding raw materials in the form of a mixture of feldspar, quartz sand, and clay. The mixture will be a pulp which is then dried, making it a very fine grain, then pressed into a tile shape. After that it is burned above 12500 C, the optimal temperature to get the tiles hard but not brittle. Then cut to size, or done polishing first. The process of polishing is quite expensive, therefore porcelain tiles are more expensive than glazed ceramics.

Quality of Ceramics

Generally the quality of ceramics is divided into KW1, KW2, and KW3. KW1 is a first-rate ceramic quality, which has no defects and significant size deviations. KW2 may have minor defects such as scratches, surface defects, color deviations, and sizes, as well as other defects that are still undercover. While KW3, there are defects that are quite clearly visible on the surface and the range of deviation size and color is large enough.
