Homeowners are increasingly focused on aging-in-place design and safety features, particularly in bathrooms. Modern ceramic tiles have evolved with technological advancements such as digital glazing, significantly improving slip resistance when wet. These tiles have microscopic textures that create better grip, reducing fall risks. According to experts, older traditional tiles can be hazardous due to their slick surfaces. As bathrooms are common areas for falls, upgrading to newer ceramic tiles is a practical investment for safety and style in home design.
"The surface of these tiles has what I like to call 'valleys and peaks.' When wet, the valleys fill with water. As you step on these valleys, your shoe or foot embeds itself in these valleys..."
"Older tiles intended for wet spaces typically lack a glaze or polish. Tile manufacturers have leveraged the natural porosity of stone to create slip-resistance."
