A good tiles supplier will guide you based on your project’s goals, not just the price tag. If they can’t explain the differences clearly, find someone who can.
Walk into a tile shop, and you’ll soon wonder: “Why do some tiles cost so much more than others?” Two tiles might look nearly identical, yet one is priced much higher. Is “premium” just a buzzword from the tiles supplier, or is there a real difference? Let’s break it down.
Built for Strength
At first glance, premium tiles and standard tiles might seem similar—same size, same color, same basic look. But their construction is where they diverge. Premium tiles are denser, pressed with more force, and fired at higher temperatures. This makes them more resistant to moisture, cracks, and wear, making them ideal for busy areas like kitchens, bathrooms, or entryways.
Standard tiles can work in low-traffic spots, but they often show wear—chips, cracks, or fading—faster in demanding spaces.
Performance That Endures
Premium tiles are designed to handle life’s challenges. Their finishes provide better grip on wet surfaces, resist stains from spills like wine or oil, and stand up to scratches from furniture or foot traffic. Standard tiles might look fine at first, but they can dull, stain, or scuff up quicker than expected, especially in high-use areas.
These differences become clear over time, as cheaper tiles start to lose their charm.
Consistency for a Seamless Look
Premium tiles are crafted with precision, ensuring each tile is nearly identical in size, shape, and shade. This leads to clean grout lines and a polished installation. Standard tiles, however, can vary slightly from batch to batch, which can disrupt your layout or throw off a pattern, especially in large or intricate designs.
These small inconsistencies can turn a smooth project into a frustrating one.
Quality from the Source
Premium tiles often come from regions with a rich tile-making tradition, like Italy, Spain, or parts of Turkey, where high-quality materials and strict standards are standard. Standard tiles are frequently mass-produced to keep costs low, sometimes at the expense of quality.
A reliable tiles supplier will be transparent about these differences and help you choose based on your project’s needs. If they push the priciest option without explanation, it’s time to shop elsewhere.
Less Upkeep, More Longevity
Premium tiles are built to last with minimal maintenance. They resist stains, wear, and fading, keeping their look for years. Standard tiles often require more care—frequent sealing, extra cleaning, or earlier replacement—which can add up over time.
While standard tiles are cheaper upfront, their higher upkeep costs can make them less of a bargain in the long run.
The Right Tile for the Space
Your choice depends on where the tiles are going. Premium tiles are perfect for high-traffic or wet areas like bathrooms, kitchens, or patios, where durability is key. For low-use areas like a guest room or a decorative backsplash, standard tiles might suffice—if you’re okay with their limitations.
A Premium Feel
Premium tiles feel different—solid, smooth, and well-made. Standard tiles can feel thin or rough, with edges that might seem cheap. These subtle differences affect how a space feels, much like high-quality furniture elevates a home.
The Bottom Line
Premium tiles aren’t always necessary, but they shine in durability, consistency, and ease of care. For spaces that see heavy use or need to last for years, they’re a smart investment.
A good tiles supplier Singapore will guide you based on your project’s goals, not just the price tag. If they can’t explain the differences clearly, find someone who can.
Tiles are about more than looks—they’re about how they perform over time. That’s where premium tiles consistently come out on top.

I think LIE is one of the sins written somewhere in the Bible. They lie and people die. And by the way committing a genocide because it's written in a BOOK should get you arrested immediately.

»“When they build a camp where they [plan to] ‘clean’ more than half of Gaza, then the inevitable understanding of the strategy of this [is that] it is not to save [Palestinians]. It is to deport them, to push them and to throw them away. There is no other understanding that I have, at least.”«
Derweil wird klar, dass Ben Gvir und Smotrich fordern dass das Lager-Projekt umgesetzt wird. Netanyahu verspricht, dass das passiert und dass "der Krieg" definitiv nicht enden wird, auch falls es einen "Waffenstillstand" geben wird. Es geht wie immer für ihn darum sich selbst an der Macht zu halten. Wenn dafür Konzentrationslager notwendig sind, dann ist Netanyahu dafür natürlich bereit. timesofisrael.com/liveblog_ent…
Übrigens - auch Netanyahu findet dass die 15 Milliarden, die Lapid beklagt, zu viel sind. Und dass es zu lange dauert. Er will die "humanitäre Stadt' genannten Konzentrationslager billiger und schneller
»According to sources, the revised forecast reportedly angered Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who demanded from military commanders “a more realistic” plan. He directed senior officers to outline how the facility could be constructed more quickly and at lower cost.« ynetnews.com/article/rksolxmie…
PM demands a faster, cheaper plan after the IDF estimates the project could take a year and cost $4 billion; critics warn plan may lead to forced displacement and undermine Israel’s military priorities
Auch Finanzminister Smotrich findet die Kosten für die Lager zu hoch. Man habe doch schon soviel ausgegeben. Und nun solle man nicht auch noch die Berechnungen für die Kosten nach oben manipulieren.
Er sagt auch, dass die Dauer und die Kosten "des Kriegs" eindeutig überwiegend deswegen so hoch sind, weil "die Hilfe Hamas erreiche". In Smotrichs Gedankenwelt bedeutet das soviel wie "wir wären schon längst durch mit dem Krieg wenn wir jede Lieferung von Essen etc. komplett unterbunden hätten"
This idea has been in my mind since the very beginning of this adventure, almost two years ago. Over time, several people have suggested it. But until recently, I felt the timing just wasn’t right - for many reasons. Today, I believe it finally is.
So I’m happy to announce a new service: The BSD Cafe Journal - journal.bsd.cafe
At first, I thought I’d use BSSG for it (I even added multi-author support with this in mind), but in the end, it didn’t feel like the right tool for the job.
The idea is to create a multi-author space, with content published on a fairly regular basis. A reference point for news, updates, tutorials, technical articles - a place to inform and connect. Just like people in Italy used to stop by cafes to read the newspaper and chat about the day’s news, the BSD Cafe Journal aims to be a space for reading, sharing, and staying informed - all in the spirit of the BSD Cafe.
What it’s not: It’s not here to replace personal blogs, or excellent newsletters like @vermaden ’s. And it’s not an aggregator.
What it is: A place where authors can write original content, share links to posts on their own blogs or elsewhere, publish guides, offer insights, or dive into technical explanations.
The guiding principles are the same as always: positivity, constructive discussion, promoting BSDs and open source in general. No hype (sharing a cool new service is fine, posting non-stop about the latest trend is not), no drama, no politics. The goal is to bring people together, not divide them. To inform, not inflame. Respect, tolerance, and inclusivity are key. Everyone should feel welcome reading the BSD Cafe Journal - never judged, offended, or excluded.
The platform I’ve chosen is WordPress, for several reasons: it’s portable (runs well on all BSDs), has great built-in role management (contributors, authors, etc.), and - last but not least - supports ActivityPub. This means every author will have their own identity in the Fediverse (like: @stefano@journal.bsd.cafe ) and can be followed directly, and it’ll also be possible to follow the whole Journal.
Original and educational content is encouraged, but it’s also perfectly fine to link to existing articles elsewhere. Personally, I’ll link my technical posts from ITNotes whenever I publish them there.
The goal is simple: a news-oriented site, rich in content, ad-free, respectful of privacy - all under the BSD Cafe umbrella.
Content coordination will happen in a dedicated Matrix room for authors. There’ll also be a public room for discussing ideas, giving feedback, and sharing suggestions.
Of course, I can’t do this alone. A journal with no content is just an empty shell. So here’s my call for action: Who’s ready to lend a hand? If you enjoy writing, explaining, sharing your knowledge - the Journal is waiting for you.

These camps are generally moving rapidly towards the English style concentration camps that were the inspiration for Hitler's camps. This Florida camp is exactly modeled in that style. Nazi death camps could be the next step, but they'll probably start hiding the death toll, if they haven't already done so, before they switch over.
English camps, and American death camps for indigenous people, were already pretty brutal. The slave camps they've already started talking about are similar to one of the most brutal Nazi camps: Monowitz.
