Imagine Tile, Inc.

Starting with any image, the company can create an incredibly vivid and graphic, commercially rated, ceramic or porcelain tile. Independent testers, Smith Emery, have tested the tile for commercial pedestrian traffic. It is unaffected by sunlight, strong chemicals, fire, water or wear. Imagine Tile produces tile for both floors and walls. The floor tile is ADA compliant for slip resistance. Imagine Tile was granted a patent for its end product, a high-resolution graphic image on a commercially rated floor tile. The process begins with a graphic image, generally a photo that is transformed digitally to represent dimension on a flat surface. Imagine Tile then uses a process in which ceramic glazes act like printing inks. Pure minerals and ores are ground micro-fine and suspended in a liquid to produce ink-like substances similar to that a printer uses. The mineral and ore based image is put onto paper and coated with a refractory material that puts a glass finish on it. At Imagine Tile’s production facility in Texas, the glazes are placed on the surface of a glazed ceramic tile. When the tile is fired at temperatures of approximately 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit, the glazes fuse with the body of the ceramic or porcelain tile. The resulting product is a beautiful, decorative tile that is amazingly durable. Imagine Tile has been widely specified for various commercial and residential projects. These unique ceramic tiles have the ability to create or enhance a mood in any space. The tiles make a decidedly bold impact that works well to reinforce a design scheme.
