Compared with other types of tiles, matte tiles have more prominent advantages in terms of look and feel and maintenance, so many bathrooms choose matte tiles. The grey simple style created by the grey matte subway tile 75x300 in the bathroom of my friend’s house gives people the ultimate luxury, and the white and black echoes each other, giving a strong sense of fashion.
Why did she choose matte tiles?
1. In fact, matte is relative to polishing, that is to say, it is a non-glossy surface. This can avoid light pollution and is more convenient to maintain. Because the polished is too bright, it is easy to dazzle the eyes; but the matt is easy to get dirty, but it is easy to clean. This is related to the difference between the glaze used in the polished bright tile and the matt tile. For tall tiles, the matt glaze is easier to absorb dirt than the bright tiles, but it will not penetrate into the glaze, which can be removed with common detergents. The matt brick is better for human eyes under strong light, and the visual effect is also very good. Therefore, matte tiles are better than polished tiles and are more tasteful. In addition, choose the color according to your own preferences. Take my friend as an example agagin, my friend chooses gray.

Over-bright tiles will not only affect the warmth and comfort of the home environment, but will also affect the eyesight health of the family in the long run. And we often go in and out of the bathroom, at least twice a day, so matte tiles are a good choice.
