Feature: Differences in Clay and Tile Production

Joe Simpson takes us on a fascinating journey exploring the differences in clay types (highlighted by the disruption to the clay supply chain due to the war in Ukraine), as well as explaining modern tile manufacturing techniques: what are the modern processes involved in turning a lump of clay into a tile. If you're not sure about the differences between red and white bodied tiles (apart from colour), or what the true definition of a porcelain tile is, then this is one for you.
