The Trend of Porcelain Paving Slabs

Posted on 8th November 2022

When it comes to the landscaping industry, things change frequently and new trends emerge often. Most recently, the trend of porcelain paving slabs has grown enormously in popularity; making it one of the most desired materials for landscaping jobs.

Porcelain paving slabs boast many amazing benefits when it comes to installation for both residential and commercial purposes.

Let’s take a look at just a few!

Moisture resistant - Porcelain paving is much less prone to absorbing moisture than any other type of paving. This makes porcelain ideal for properties where heavy levels of rainfall are expected.

Some other paving types, such as natural stone, crack as a result of absorbing water but it is not a problem with porcelain paving slabs.

Modern - Porcelain paving gives a highly modern and contemporary finish to any property. The smooth and clean appearance makes them perfect for a wide range of garden and indoor property designs.

Durable - Due to the high density of the slabs, they are extremely hard wearing. They are resistant to cracks, dents, scratches and other abrasions; making them perfect for use in high footfall areas such as paths and patios.

Low maintenance - Porcelain paving slabs are among the easiest types of landscaping material to maintain. When proper grout is used, the only cleaning they require is some occasional sweeping and a wash with warm soapy water every once in a while.

Why have porcelain paving slabs become so popular?

Many of the benefits mentioned above are the reasons why porcelain paving has become so popular. Porcelain is starting to become recognised as a more viable alternative for landscapers compared to ceramic and natural stone options on the paving market.

The reason for this is because it is manufactured to look practically indistinguishable from other natural materials while boasting all the structural advantages of porcelain.
