The Beauty of Marble floor tiles

Owning a beautiful house is an ultimate dream of most of the individuals. It is this dream that has led to an unprecedented craze for marble tiles in India.   How? Well, before answering this, let’s build it up a bit- what is the first thing a visitor at your house most likely to observe? Yes, you are bang on target with your pick-  the floor of your room as immediately after stepping in, he/she will look down to see as to what lies beneath his feet. Now you would have understood as to why having a marble floor is slowly turning into a kind of status symbol and a matter of pride for a house-owner.

Marble granite tile

Marble along with granite tile has been the most common and popular types of stone tile. Indian architecture has had a long tradition of using marble and granite tile. Archeological evidences, in fact, suggest that marble floor tiles have been in vogue since early Vedic age.  While marble is considered ideal for both floors and fireplaces, granite tile is often used for countertops and fireplaces.

In the recent years, the craze for marble tiles in India has soared to the new heights thanks largely to the economy boom that has given birth to a large section of cash rich middle class who is ever ready to spend any amount of money on decoration and embellishment of their house.

Benefits of marble floor tiles

  • Low maintenance: Cleaning marble floor is easy and hardly expensive if it is done on a regular basis.
  • Versatility: marble tiles are versatile. It means that apart from using them on floors, you can also use it for shower walls and vanity counter tops. Marble tiles, in fact, can be used in any kind of room. If used in office, it will give your office a unique look and a distinct touch.
  • Health benefits: Marble floor tiles are conducive to health too. Medical reports have proved that marble floors can take the role of savior for your family by keeping the bacteria at bay. This natural stone marble is also capable of giving you a full time protection from pathogens and allergens. Thus, Marble has a natural ability to keep away microscopic particles which cause germs and which in turn cause a host of diseases.
  • Durability:   another benefit that is associated with the use of marble floor tiles is its durability. Marble floor can bear huge traffic and repetitive use without having any sign of wear and tear. It will easily last 2 to 5 years longer than any other flooring options. Further, it is also capable of withstanding stain so even in the event of a spill-over; the chances of the floor getting damaged are reduced to almost nil. However, proper cleaning should be done to ensure the spills do not remain for long on the floor.
  • Air conditioning effect: Having a marble floor is almost akin to having an air conditioner. Marble has a natural ability to absorb heat and thus your floors will remain cool even on hot summer days.
