About Clay Tile and Pavers
Clay tile, such as Saltillo, terracotta, and Mexican tiles have been used for centuries. The first clay tile project can be traced back to China in roughly 10,000BC. From there it spread to the Middle East and eventually, around the world. Charleston, West Virginia installed the first clay paver street in the US back in 1870.
Clay tile and pavers are very versatile and can be used in numerous ways inside and out. They can be used indoors as flooring or as decorative tile installations, or entryways. Outdoors, clay tile and pavers can be used as roofing, patios, pool surrounds, patios and more.
Made from clay, shale and sand, they are considered to be an eco-friendly material.
