Get a Free QuoteGlazed Vitrified Tiles (GVT) represent the ultimate fusion of structural durability and limitless design potential. Manufactured at L-Tile Granito's state-of-the-art facility in Morbi, our GVT collection begins with a high-strength vitrified core that offers the robust performance of porcelain. Before firing, the surface is coated with a premium liquid glass glaze and printed using cutting-edge multi-pass digital inkjet technology. This allows us to faithfully reproduce the complex veining of natural marble, the warm grain of rustic timber, and the gritty texture of industrial concrete with photographic accuracy. GVT is inherently versatile—by altering the glaze chemistry, we produce these tiles in a variety of finishes, including matt, satin, and rustic carving. Whether you are outfitting a high-end residential living room, a boutique retail store, or a modern office space, GVT provides a stain-resistant, low-maintenance surface that will not fade under UV exposure.

A GVT tile consists of two primary layers. The base layer is a dense, vitrified body made from highly refined clay and minerals, fired to achieve less than 0.5% water absorption. The top layer is a specialized protective glaze that acts as a canvas for high-definition digital printing. This dual-layer construction provides the mechanical strength of porcelain with the aesthetic versatility of ceramic.
While polished tiles offer high gloss, our Matt GVT collection is the go-to choice for commercial architects. The non-reflective surface minimizes glare, hides dust and footprints, and provides a crucial slip-resistant texture. From modern corporate lobbies to high-traffic shopping malls, matt GVT delivers an understated, sophisticated elegance while meeting stringent commercial safety codes.
The top glaze layer on L-Tile Granito GVT is fired at over 1150°C, vitrifying the glaze into an impermeable glass-like shield. This makes GVT incredibly resistant to household acids, wine spills, coffee stains, and industrial cleaning agents. Furthermore, the digital inks used in our manufacturing process are UV-stable, ensuring the vibrant patterns will never fade, even when installed in sun-drenched sunrooms or glass conservatories.
GVT is not limited to a single texture. Our Satin finish offers a baby-soft touch with a subtle sheen, perfect for luxury bedrooms. Our Carving finish uses reactive inks during the firing process to create physical 3D indentations along the veins of the digital print, resulting in a tactile surface that mimics natural split-face stone or deeply grained wood.

Direct Answer: GVT (Glazed Vitrified Tiles) features a standard glazed surface that is typically matt, satin, or textured.
Authority Layer: PGVT (Polished Glazed Vitrified Tiles) are GVT tiles that undergo an additional mechanical polishing process after firing to create a high-gloss, mirror-like finish.
Direct Answer: Yes.
Authority Layer: GVT with a matt or textured finish is highly recommended for kitchen floors. The vitrified body is extremely strong, and the glazed surface acts as an impermeable barrier against cooking oils, food spills, and heavy foot traffic.
Direct Answer: Absolutely.
Authority Layer: Due to their large formats and stunning digital designs, GVT tiles are widely used for interior feature walls, TV unit backdrops, and bathroom wall cladding. Ensure your installer uses an appropriate heavy-duty wall adhesive.
Direct Answer: Matt GVT is very low maintenance.
Authority Layer: Daily sweeping and mopping with a mild, pH-neutral floor cleaner is sufficient. Because the surface is non-porous, there is no need for specialized waxes, sealers, or harsh chemical detergents.
Direct Answer: No.
Authority Layer: The digital inks used in L-Tile Granito GVT are fired at extreme temperatures, fusing them permanently into the glaze layer. The tiles are 100% UV-resistant and will not fade, warp, or discolor even in direct sunlight.
Direct Answer: L-Tile Granito GVT tiles are rectified, meaning their edges are precision-cut.
Authority Layer: We recommend a tight grout joint of 1.5mm to 2mm using tile leveling clips to ensure a perfectly flat, seamless appearance across large floors.
Direct Answer: The glaze on our GVT tiles boasts a high Mohs hardness rating, making it highly resistant to everyday scratches from shoes, pets, and standard furniture.
Authority Layer: However, dragging heavy metal appliances without floor protectors should always be avoided.
Direct Answer: Yes, the 600x1200mm (24x48 inches) format is our most popular export size.
Authority Layer: We pack these securely in export-grade seaworthy wooden pallets and ship globally from Mundra Port with a typical transit time of 15 to 30 days depending on the destination.
