History of the classic cement tiles
History of cement tiles
Cement tiles began to appear around 1855-1875 in Southern France and Northeastern Spain. These tiles are often called cement tiles because they resemble the popular fired clay tiles of this period. The benefit of cement tiles was that they did not burn, and during this period fire and energy were very expensive. Cement tiles offer more efficient and affordable tiles using only Portland cement, sand and pigments, while still being able to reproduce the same intricate designs.

“Cement tiles were used for flooring in the early 20th century. They represent the creativity of the Avante-Garde movement and were chosen for decoration in tsarist palaces. In the early 1900s, the popularity of these cement tiles extended to the colonies of France, Spain, and Portugal. You can find decorative cement tiles arriving in the United States and Latin America around this time.
By the middle of the 20th century, cement tiles had lost their importance to the massive development of industrial ceramic and porcelain tiles. Fortunately, by the early 2000s, the demand for authentic products had increased dramatically and handmade cement tiles were back in widespread use. This trend can be seen in many industries in the United States, similar to how bacteria have become more common than your standard mass production... cement tiles use more craft in the manufacturing process and give the end user a truly authentic hand-made experience.
