GVT vs PGVT Tiles

What’s the difference between gvt and pgvt tiles? The differences between these two types of floor tiles can seem quite stark, especially if you’re not well-versed in tile purchasing or installation. That’s why we’ve compiled this guide on the difference between gvt and pgvt tiles, along with some pros and cons of each to help you decide which type of tile is right for your home.

About Glazed Vitrified Tiles

The difference between GVT and PGVT tiles is in their use. While both are made from a combination of sand, clay, and stone, they serve different purposes: Glazed Vitrified Tile (GVT) is glazed on its exterior and protects against water penetration while retaining an unglazed base that provides traction to prevent slipping.


Protected by a glaze finish and with an unglazed foot, these tiles can also be used as flooring. This makes them suitable for public spaces such as healthcare buildings or toilets or even inside shower rooms. They’re ideal for high-traffic areas such as shopping malls where lots of people need to walk around safely. Their raised texture also keeps dirt and grime at bay so your floors stay clean for longer without constant cleaning.

About Polished Glazed Vitrified Tiles

Polished Glazed Vitrified tiles are a major quality product in the ceramic tile industry. They have a glossy, polished surface and a shiny glaze coating, which is suitable for both interior and exterior applications. Though they have a smooth finish, these tiles aren’t slippery. Their texture provides traction on wet surfaces.


This, along with their durability, makes them ideal for kitchens or bathrooms where water can be present. Unlike other porcelain products that are only intended to be used indoors because of moisture sensitivity, PGV tiles can be used outdoors as well. This is because of their overall durability against heat and moisture damage due to high fired temperatures up to 1280 degrees Celsius (2300 F). Because of their strength against breakage during transportation, your finished project will also benefit from lower shipping costs too.
