Porcelain paving is formed by baking a mixture of clay, sand, and other minerals at high temperatures. This creates a high density, hard and wear-resistant surface which has made it probably the best type of paving available today.

Porcelain paving slabs are designed to withstand harsh weather conditions, including rain and snow. This means that they will not fade over time like other similar products.

The material used in porcelain pavers also has a high resistance to UV light, so the colour won’t change or be impacted by sunlight exposure.

In these qualities, we have found it to be much better than even high-end natural stones such as granite.

Yes, porcelain patio tiles can be cut to any size however its hardness makes it more difficult to cut than softer stones like sandstone. If you are cutting porcelain paving you will need a powerful saw and diamond blades.

To get neat cuts we have found that table-mounted masonry saws are by far the best.

Porcelain paving has a very hard ceramic surface which is resistant to most weather conditions and abrasion which usually causes paving to fade or weaken.

Unlike sandstone paving, porcelain patio tiles are not porous and don’t absorb water so sealing them would not work well and would likely ruin the paving.

Like other popular types of paving, this can also be used for driveways and has many benefits such as its wide variety and easy installation. However, we recommend you get purpose-designed driveway porcelain which is usually 50 mm thick.

Driveway porcelain is around 50% thicker than standard porcelain paving. This means that it will resist the added weight of cars and vans and will be more robust against things being dropped on the driveway.

The slabs have a smooth surface so water will tend to stay on them for longer than more permeable paving such as sandstone. Thankfully most porcelain patio tiles have a very good anti-slip surface which outperforms most smooth natural stone.
