What is the difference between glazed and unglazed porcelain tiles?
Unglazed porcelain tiles are often referred to as “through body,” which refers to the fact that the color on the top runs completely through the body of the tile. Glazed porcelain tiles have a porcelain body but have a final glaze application on the surface. Even through the body of the tile is denser and less porous, once installed properly, the glazed surface becomes more important in determining the durability of the tile.
