What are Porcelain Pavers Made of?

Porcelain pavers are a luxurious type of paving material that is made from porcelain clay. They offer a number of benefits over other types of paving materials, such as concrete pavers. They come in a variety of colors, sizes, and textures. Which will give you more opportunities to create a unique and bespoke look.

Why using porcelain pavers on your patio project?

Porcelain pavers offer several benefits over concrete pavers, including:
1. Durability: Even though they are quite thin, approximately ¾” thick. Porcelain pavers are extremely durable and can withstand heavy foot traffic, weather conditions, and wear and tear over time. They are also resistant to stains, scratches, and fading.
2. Low Maintenance: Porcelain pavers require very little maintenance compared to concrete pavers. They do not need to be sealed or treated and can simply be cleaned with soap and water.
3. Design Options: Porcelain pavers come in a wide range of colors, patterns, and textures, allowing for greater design flexibility and customization. They can mimic the look of natural stone, wood, or concrete.
4. Environmentally Friendly: Porcelain pavers are made from natural materials and are fully recyclable. They are also water-permeable, which helps reduce runoff and promotes better drainage.
5. Easy Installation: Porcelain pavers are easy to install and can be laid directly on top of an existing concrete or gravel base. They are also lightweight, making them easier to handle and transport than concrete pavers.
6. Cost: Porcelain pavers are now made in the US. The price of porcelain pavers is similar to concrete pavers.
Overall, porcelain pavers offer a high-quality, low-maintenance, and versatile option for outdoor paving that can enhance the aesthetic appeal and functionality of a space.
