    Q:Many purchasers are using these for showers, however they are listed as ceramic rather than porcelain, and porcelain is usually recommended over ceramic for wet areas. Is it safe to use these for a shower? Won't they absorb too much water?

          Q:Is the color of the current batches in 2023 a soft white or a pure bright white? I have been looking for a soft warmer white tile but when updated samples come they are pure bright white.
          by|Sep 26, 2023
          1 Answer
          Answer This Question

          A:  The current batch color is pure bright white. Please be aware that tiles from the same series (ceramic/porcelain, LVT, and natural stone) produced at different times may vary slightly in color and size. To maintain consistency, it's best to order all tiles for a project in one order, ensuring they come from the same dye lot and caliber. Ordering in multiple batches may result in receiving different colors and sizes. Thank you for your interest in MSI Sapheda Riptide Satin 4 in. x 16 in. Matte Ceramic Stone Look Wall Tile.
