Where Can I Install Cement Tiles?
You can install cement tiles on floors, walls, back splashes, lobby or kitchen counters, bathrooms and ceilings. They are ideal for both commercial and residential applications. Go to our Cement Tile Design Ideas to see photos of cement tile installations and design ideas. Cement tiles are not frost proof and are not suitable for outdoor locations that are subject to freezing.

Handcraft Cement Tiles are also called Cuban Tiles (in Florida); Mosaicos Hidraulicos, Ladrilhos Hidraulicos, Baldosas Hidraulicas in Spanish speaking nations; Carreaux de Ciment or carrelages du ciment (in France and Belgium). Less common names include Portuguese tegels, Barcelona Tile (because they were used by Gaudi in his home city by the same name), Redondo Tile and Mission Tile.

Cement tiles are often mistakenly called Encaustic Tiles or Encaustic Cement Tiles. Encaustic tiles are created with an inlaid pattern of two or more different colors of clay and are more correctly called inlaid tiles.

Cement Tile Customization
Cement tiles can also be customized. For creative, design people, Avente offers Cement Tile Customization Services for tiles in our Cuban Hertiage design and Heritage Colors line.
