What is Quarry?

All Quarry tiles are made of clay. They have a roughly finished appearance. They are easily noticed as there are small rolled grooves on the back of each tile. These grooves are extrusive in nature, created by large machines. Quarry tiles have extreme durability and are excellent for heavy traffic areas, bathrooms and kitchens. Once sealed, the tiles are water resistance

• A canister vacuum cleaner is the best to thoroughly clean Quarry tiles. It is important not to use beater bar vacuum cleaners as they drag grit across the surface of the tile and this causes scratches to the sealer or wax.
• Quarry tiles need only mopping with a cleanser. It is highly recommended to use enzyme based, antibacterial cleansers for Quarry tiles, especially those used in the kitchen. This type of cleansers rid the grease and odour of the floor.
• Remember to thoroughly rinse your mop to remove any residue from the cleanser. It is recommended to use either soft or distilled water when mopping. As tap water has high contents of minerals that is deposited on the surface of the tiles.
• Then wipe the floor dry with a clean towel. This will highlight if your tile has been hazed or discoloured. Aging wax turns yellowish in colour. If the tile has a film on its surface, just mop it with white vinegar and water. It will remove the haze and remember to again dry the tile.
