Eco-friendly Tile Installation - Orlando, FL

ecofriendly tilesEco friendly tiles create stunning interiors, over any imagination. The tiles can offer many possibilities to create hallways and canopies. The eco-friendly tiles create structural quality and a real environmental philosophy.

Made of ceramic, glass, or stone, tile has unrivaled durability. It works in high-traffic areas such as entries, kitchens, and hallways. Manufacturers now offer more floor tiles with the look and color range of stone, ceramic tile, terracotta, or terrazzo, but with recycled content.

Recycled-content tile makes use of otherwise wasted by-products diverting glass, used tiles, granite dust, stone tailings, or unfired material from landfills and offsetting its high “embodied energy” cost (price of energy required to get a product from its source).

In the last two to three years there has been an explosion of new products on the scene, many being made from recycled materials derived from wood, glass, metals and more.

Most recyclers collect materials in a range of colors because that is what we as consumers are turning in to our local recycling centers. As a result, recycled product manufacturers are able to produce finished products with more variety and color that simply can not be found in regular production materials.

Tile Metrics highly recommend taking a look at our Eco-Friendly Tile options at our showroom.

Installing natural stone tile is slightly more difficult than installing the manufactured ceramic tiles from a home center, but the results are far more unique and the materials will last a lifetime. The proper installation of stone flooring will allow for your floor to last as long as possible. In most cases, properly installing stone flooring will allow it to last a lifetime.

Ceramic tile and stone can make a dramatic statement in a variety of rooms of a house. Stone can be found in living spaces and entry ways most often when put into a structures floor plan. Stone can be slate, granite, quartz and more. Stone is a natural product while ceramic tile is created from burning clay. There exists a third material, called stone tile, which is stone remnants pressed together in a chemical base. Natural stone flooring lends a touch of class to formal entryways or a rustic look to an outdoor bathhouse. No matter where you choose to install it, there is a type of stone flooring to fit your style.

Stone can be tricky to purchase, because by their nature, all stones are unique in appearance and therefore, what arrives at your house can be somewhat of a surprise. Maintenance is the key to keeping your stone floor as beautiful as the day it was installed. Stain protection is recommended and can be applied when the floor is placed.
