Porcelain Slab Guide: What to Know Before You BuyPorcelain slabs create bold, impressive designs because their large surfaces allow patterns and veining to unfold on a much bigger scale. The effect can feel almost like a large painting, but with a more subtle, architectural presence. Here are some professional tips to help you make the most of them.
Porcelain slabs are extremely versatile because their large dimensions and thin profile allow them to cover large surfaces with very few joints. They can be used for walls, accent walls, bathrooms and shower walls, fireplace surrounds, exterior applications, and other large vertical surfaces. Their size makes them especially useful when the goal is to create a more continuous surface without dividing the design into many individual tiles.
Yes, porcelain slabs can be installed on floors, but the substrate needs to be extremely flat—essentially laser-flat. Because slabs are 6mm thick and cover such a large area, imperfections in the substrate can create problems after installation. Proper surface preparation is therefore especially important when porcelain slabs are used as flooring.
Yes. Porcelain slabs used for countertops are typically 2 cm thick and perform far better than quartz when it comes to heat. By comparison, 6mm porcelain slabs are generally used for wall applications.
No. Porcelain slabs require virtually no maintenance. They do not need to be sealed or periodically refinished, making them especially practical for large wall surfaces, bathrooms, showers, and exterior applications.
