About DuraTile®

A Patented Floating Porcelain Tile System, designed to be as easy to install as other less durable flooring options, but also the first flooring system that is fully repurpose-able for extended end-of-life options allowing flooring to be moved to new facilities, or more easily recyclable compared to many other flooring materials. DuraTile is designed to free-float on a thin insulative layer causing substrate moment, thermal transfer, and sound transfer to be less of an impact than traditionally set tile flooring.
