Why is ceramic good for our health?
- Ceramic tiles avoid exposure to harmful pollutants which are in other surfaces, such as VOC focal points (harmful gases which may cause ear, nose and throat irritation, as well as symptoms similar to the ones of the flu) which may appear in laminated floors, for instance. It has: 0 allergens, 0 VOCs, 0 formaldehyde, 0 PVC, 0 odours.
- Ceramic is an inert dustproof material so it contributes to your home well-being. Ideal for people with asthma or allergies.
