Why Spanish Pattern Tiles Are Preferred Over Traditional Encaustic Tiles

Traditional encaustic tiles are made from pressed cement, with pigment set into the surface layer during curing. While they've long been prized for their handmade pattern look, cement encaustic tiles are porous, unsealed cement is prone to staining, and the surface pattern can wear down over time with foot traffic — making them a higher-maintenance, higher-risk choice for busy areas.

Our Spanish green pattern tiles replicate the same encaustic look using fired porcelain instead of cement. The pattern is fused into the tile during high-temperature firing, which gives several practical advantages:

  • No sealing required — porcelain is non-porous straight out of the kiln, unlike cement tiles which need ongoing sealing to resist staining.
  • Far more durable — fired porcelain resists scratching, fading, and wear far better than cement, so the pattern stays crisp for the life of the floor.
  • Stain and moisture resistant — ideal for bathrooms, kitchens, and entryways where cement encaustic tiles would need extra protection.
  • Consistent colour and pattern alignment — porcelain manufacturing produces tighter tolerances than hand-poured cement, reducing misalignment across a floor.
  • Lower long-term cost — no resealing, easier cleaning, and no risk of etching from acidic spills (common with cement tiles in kitchens).

In short, our Spanish porcelain green pattern tiles give you the classic encaustic look with none of the maintenance burden.

Are Spanish porcelain pattern tiles better than traditional encaustic tiles?

Spanish porcelain pattern tiles replicate the traditional encaustic look but are fired at high temperatures, making them non-porous, stain resistant and more durable than cement encaustic tiles. Unlike cement encaustic tiles, they require no sealing and hold consistent colour and pattern alignment over time, making them a lower-maintenance choice for bathroom and kitchen floors.
