Zhong Taojun has also thought about this question in his mind: Is it better to use ceramic tiles or floors for decoration in the living room? Some people say that the floor is warmer, and some people say that ceramic tiles give people a cold feeling, but the floor is difficult to care for and ceramic tiles are easy to care for. Which one is better? I hope that after reading this article you will no longer struggle with this issue.
1. What factors should be considered when choosing ceramic tiles for the living room
1. Strong slip resistance
If there are elderly and children at home, the floor material should not be too smooth, otherwise they will easily fall. In addition, ground materials with sharp corners, large particles or very rough surfaces will also pose a threat to their safety and should be avoided as much as possible.
2. Easy to take care of
The more people come and go, the more often the owner needs to clean the floor of the living room. Materials that are difficult to care for will increase the difficulty of cleaning. Therefore, the floor materials in the living room need to be given priority to whether they are easy to care for. As for luxurious and beautiful floor decorations such as shag carpets and animal furs, it is best not to use them or to use them in a small area.
3. Strong wear resistance
The frequency of people coming and going in the living room is significantly higher than that in other rooms, and the floor is also the most worn. This requires the floor material in the living room to be more wear-resistant than other rooms such as bedrooms and studies.
4. Good thermal conductivity
If a floor heating system is used in the living room, the selected floor must have good thermal conductivity and not be easily deformed due to changes in cold and heat, such as ceramic tiles, stone, plastic floors, and some specially treated wood. Effect.
2. What are the main types of wooden floors
Wooden flooring refers to floors made of wood. Wooden flooring produced in China is mainly divided into six categories: solid wood flooring, laminate flooring, solid wood composite flooring, natural landscape and feng shui flooring, bamboo flooring and cork flooring.
1. Laminate flooring
A floor made of one or more layers of special paper impregnated with thermosetting amino resin, paved on the surface of particleboard, high-density fiberboard and other artificial board base materials, with a balancing layer on the back and a wear-resistant layer on the front, and then hot-pressed and formed.
Features: Wear-resistant, rich in styles, impact-resistant, deformation-resistant, pollution-resistant, flame-retardant, moisture-proof, environmentally friendly, non-fading, easy to install, easy to care for, can be used for floor heating, etc.
2. Composite flooring
Laminate flooring is generally composed of four layers of materials: the bottom layer, the base material layer, the decorative layer and the wear-resistant layer. The number of revolutions of the wear-resistant layer determines the life of the composite floor.
Wear-resistant: about 10 to 30 times more than ordinary painted floors; beautiful: various wood grains, patterns, and colors can be simulated by computer; stable: the original wood organization is completely broken up and the anisotropy is destroyed It has the characteristics of moisture expansion and dry contraction, and is extremely stable in size, especially suitable for rooms with floor heating systems.
3. Solid wood floor
Solid wood flooring is a floor decoration material formed from natural wood after drying and processing. The natural log texture and color patterns it presents give people a natural, soft, and friendly texture. At the same time, because of its characteristics of being warm in winter, cool in summer, and good to the touch, it is an ideal material for floor decoration in bedrooms, living rooms, studies, etc.
4. Insulation bricks
Use porous materials to make the body, with a volume density of about 0.6 to 1.0, and then apply glaze treatment on the surface of the body, so that it has the thermal insulation and energy-saving effects of porous materials and the characteristics of glazed tiles. With the increasing emphasis on environmental protection and energy conservation, this type of brick should have a considerable market. This kind of product has been put on the insulation brick market abroad.
5. Thin bricks
Thinner than existing ceramic tiles, it is a type of product that is trending toward more energy-saving and environmentally friendly ceramic tiles.
6. Lightweight bricks
This tile could be used to create new materials.
7. Permeable bricks
A kind of ceramic tile that can be used on street pavement, which is water-permeable and prevents water accumulation on the road
8. Marble
Marble is mainly used to process into various shapes and plates for walls, floors, platforms, and columns of buildings. It is also often used as a material for monumental buildings such as monuments, towers, statues, etc. Marble can also be carved into arts and crafts, stationery, lamps, utensils and other practical works of art.
So do you have a certain understanding of what Zhongtaojun shared with you today about Whether ceramic tiles or wooden floors are better for living room decoration? There is a lot of content, and I am sharing it carelessly. I will share today’s content here, and Mr. Zhongtao will leave first!
