Differences between Porous Materials and Refractory Materials

Many interior decoration projects with good results feature porous or refractory materials. Although it is true that some interior designers nowadays talk about technical ceramic concepts when starting the process of tiling the inner areas of a home, ceramic manufacturers know the best finishes last the longest.

Porous materials

Porous ceramic materials offer high quality and a lovely aesthetic finish. Their main characteristic is that these materials are baked at very high temperatures. However, they do not go through the vitrification process and, therefore, the texture is rougher and less compact.

Refractory materials

Refractory ceramic materials are widely used in interior decoration today. They are made from clay that is fired at very high temperatures. Once the material is made, it can again be subjected to high temperatures without modifying the structure. It is precisely this ability to withstand high temperatures without alterations that makes this material ideal for kitchens.

Interior design

Interior design trends are constantly evolving. That’s why new suggestions for home aesthetics are launched every year. This benefits people who are used to changing their decoration and also those who want to adapt their designs to a more neutral taste that never changes.

In either case, it’s a good idea to rely on interior designers who can guarantee the materials won’t go bad and will work well for a long time. Porous and refractory materials in ceramics are setting trends that seem to follow a clearly essential flow when decorating an entire home. Choose this versatile, durable and quality material.
