Glue Dry-GranuleTiles for Commercial & Project Applications
Stable Texture · Anti-Slip Potential · Low-Gloss Stone Look
Glue dry-granule porcelain tile is an advanced ceramic slab surface developed for commercial and public spaces where long-term performance is more critical than initial visual impact. Compared with conventional polished or soft-polished finishes, this surface prioritizes stability, safety, and consistent aging over time.
They are commonly specified for:
Hotel lobby feature walls
Retail brand statement areas
Large-format decorative panels in interiors
Wall & Floor Porcelain Tiles for Commercial Use
Our standard porcelain tile ranges are suitable for commercial wall and floor applications, offering stable color control, controlled dimensional tolerances, and consistency for large-area installations.
Large-Format & OEM Development Capability
Supported by in-house R&D, we provide large-format tiles and OEM or private-label development to meet distributor branding needs and project-specific design requirements.
What Is Glue Dry-Granule Tiles Technology?
Glue dry-granule is a digitally controlled composite surface process, consisting of:
Digitally positioned adhesive ink applied only where surface texture is required
Directional bonding of dry granules (mineral sand, frit, or sintered particles) to the pattern
High-temperature firing that permanently integrates the granules into the slab body
Final brushing or soft polishing to adjust gloss level and surface feel
Architectural Visual Effect
The result is a surface with real micro-relief texture that aligns with the stone pattern, rather than a flat printed appearance.
We go beyond crafting premium tiles with meticulous expertise, along with a diverse range of sizes — including 600×1200mm, 700×1500mm, 900x1800mm ( provide custom service ) — to precisely match the needs of every space.”

Glue Dry-granule Technical Key Benefits for Commercial Projects
1. Natural Stone Texture with Real Depth
Physical micro-relief allows the surface texture to remain visually clear under side lighting, making it suitable for lobbies, corridors, and large open areas.
2. Wear Resistance for Medium to High Traffic Areas
Dry-granule materials can achieve high hardness levels (Mohs 6–7 as a material reference). Final wear performance should always be evaluated based on the finished product, particularly in large continuous commercial installations.
3. Anti-Slip Potential without Aggressive Roughnes
Typical granule size: 60–120 mesh (approximately 0.05–0.2 mm)
Fine micro-texture increases friction while remaining comfortable underfoot
Slip performance can be verified through market-specific testing, such as AS 4586 for Australia or DIN/EN test methods for EU markets.
4. Low-Gloss Visual Comfort
The surface features a low-reflection, non-mirror finish, helping to reduce glare and maintain a calm, consistent appearance over time in large spaces.
Typical Applications
Glue dry-granule tiles, distinguished by their excellent anti-slip performance, high wear resistance, strong stain resistance, and three-dimensional surface texture, are widely used across a broad range of applications. They are suitable not only for residential spaces but also for various commercial and public areas. In home interiors, they are particularly ideal for moisture- and stain-prone areas such as bathrooms, kitchens, and balconies, while also creating a refined aesthetic—such as matte or micro-cement–inspired finishes—for living rooms and bedrooms. In commercial settings, these tiles are commonly specified for restaurants, hotels and boutique accommodations, shopping malls, office buildings, hospitals, and schools—spaces with high foot traffic or stringent safety requirements. In addition, their excellent weather resistance makes them suitable for outdoor areas such as courtyards and terraces, making glue dry-granule tiles a versatile ceramic material that combines both functional performance and decorative appeal.
Not recommended for: permanently wet areas, heavy-oil kitchen floors, or designs that require mirror-gloss reflection.
Maintenance & Cleaning
In terms of maintenance, glue dry-granule tiles are generally easy to clean and care for. Their dense surface structure prevents stains from penetrating easily, so everyday dust and light soiling can be removed with plain water or a mild neutral detergent. For tougher stains such as grease or limescale, they can be easily cleaned with specialized cleaning agents.
However, because the surface features fine granular textures, dust may accumulate in the grooves and uneven areas if not cleaned regularly. Periodic deep cleaning is therefore recommended to maintain both the appearance and the anti-slip performance.
Routine cleaning with neutral detergent and clean water
Avoid prolonged exposure to strong acids or alkalis
No sealing required under normal indoor conditions
Periodic deep cleaning recommended for commercial environments
Overall, glue dry-granule tiles are easier to maintain than natural stone and less prone to showing dirt than polished tiles, making them a low-maintenance ceramic tile option.

FAQ
1. What do you actually mean by “porcelain tiles”?
People use the term porcelain tile very loosely.
For us, it means one simple thing first:
water absorption of 0.5% or lower.
Why does this matter?
Because in many projects we’ve seen, tiles looked good, passed basic checks, but later failed because they absorbed too much moisture over time.
Low absorption doesn’t solve every problem — but without it, problems are much more likely.
2. Are porcelain tiles suitable for outdoor use?
Yes — if the surface and system are right.
In our experience, outdoor problems usually happen when:
polished or smooth tiles are used outside
drainage isn’t clearly planned
slope is ignored
When those things are overlooked, the result is often complaints, safety concerns, or even replacement.
That’s why we usually recommend textured or matt surfaces for outdoor areas.
3. What about porcelain tiles in frost and cold climates?
People often ask if porcelain tiles are “frost-proof”.
From what we’ve seen, frost damage almost never starts with the tile itself.
It starts with water trapped under or inside the system.
Low absorption helps, but proper drainage and installation matter just as much.
4. Are porcelain tiles better than ceramic tiles for commercial projects?
In most commercial situations — yes.
We’ve seen ceramic tiles used in public areas to save cost, only to be replaced a few years later due to:
- moisture issues
- edge damage
- inconsistent appearance after wear
Porcelain tiles are simply more forgiving over time.
5. Can porcelain tiles be used for driveways?
They can — but this is where mistakes are expensive.
Most failures we’ve seen were not about the tile, but about:
- base preparation
- load assumptions
- edge restraint
Approving the tile without confirming the whole system is risky.
6. Are porcelain tiles easy to maintain?
They can be — if expectations are realistic.
Textured outdoor tiles need periodic deep cleaning.
Polished tiles need careful maintenance to keep their appearance.
Many complaints we hear are actually maintenance issues, not product defects.
7.Is Glue Dry-Granule Right for Your Project?
Glue dry-granule sintered stone is best suited for projects that require:
A natural stone appearance
Reduced surface glare
Long-term visual and performance stability
Controlled anti-slip characteristics

Crystalline Glaze Technology - Controlled Decorative Performance
Kiln-Formed Crystallization Process
Crystalline glaze tiles are produced through a controlled high-temperature kiln crystallization process, during whichcrystalline structures naturally form within the glaze layer during firing.
Unlike printed or surface-applied effects, the crystalline texture develops as part of the fring cycle itself. Each tile thereforedisplays natural visual variation,while core physical properties remain under controlled production parameters suitable forproject use.
Architectural Visual Effect
Under changing lighting conditions, the glaze surface reveals layered light and shadow effects. This characteristic makescrystalline glaze tiles particularly suitable for large-format feature applications in commercial interiors.
We go beyond crafting premium tiles with meticulous expertise, offering both positioned crystallization and full crystal-lization processes, along with a diverse range of sizes-including 600x1200x10mm, 700x1500x10mm, and1200x2700x9mm -to precisely match the needs of every space."
