The "Deco Ceramic Tile" carries the same quality standard as our signature "Elso Mug". The difference between the Deco Tile and our Elso standard Tile, is the Deco Tile is thinner making it an ideal choice for use as custom inserts in our Tile accessories or as a wall mural where a thinner and lighter tile is desired. Ceramic tile murals can be installed on a wall, on your ceiling or create one for your kitchen. You can expect the Elso quality standards with every tile printed. If you are looking for a tile floor mural, then you will want to see our line of glass floor tiles. Ceramic tiles are not designed for floor use where there is to be any traffic.

The tile decorating process discussed on this web site is called inkjet sublimation (an overview of this process is in the section below).

The one absolute requirement of this process is that the tiles must have a polymer coating on them. When a tile is decorated using the sublimation process the image is transferred into the polymer coating and actually becomes a part of it.

When you run your finger across the surface of a sublimated tile you will feel nothing. This is because the image is now part of the coating.

We stress this because we do not want you to have the mistaken impression that you can run down to your local home improvement center and buy tiles or other ceramic products. You can't! None of their ceramic products will be correctly coated to accept the inkjet sublimation process.

Sublimatable ceramics are manufactured by industry specialists who produce and coat the product, especially for inkjet sublimation.

Could you coat your own ceramic products? Yes, but 99% of the time, for individuals and small companies, it is not worth it! The time and money spent in trying to set up a coating operation will cost you more than the investment you need to just decorate the tiles and start making money.
