In kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and other areas where moisture is an issue, hardwood flooring isn't suitable. But, you can still add real wood looks to these settings by choosing wood look tile. Wood look tile combines wood's natural appearance with tile's wear resistance and moisture resistance.
Wood look tile, like any other floor or wall tile option, features a real ceramic or porcelain construction. In fact, it is made the same way as ceramic and porcelain tiles. Therefore, wood look tile is can handle everyday wear and tear, as well as moisture and heat. What gives wood look tile its natural wood appearance is its surface. Using innovative digital printing technology, a real wood image is added to the surface of the tiles. This image features the grains and knots that you'd expect from real hardwood. Also, wood look tile is cut into plank sizes, and it is often textured for added authenticity.
Like any other tile option, wood look tile can be installed pretty much anywhere in the home. It is especially popular in kitchens and bathrooms. You can even choose some high-end porcelain options that are suitable for outdoor patios.
Wood look tile is available as floor tile and wall tile.
