Porcelain vs Ceramic — Cleaning Glossary | Simply Maid

HomeCleaning 101GlossaryPorcelain vs Ceramic

Porcelain vs Ceramic

Porcelain is a denser, harder, less porous type of ceramic fired at higher temperatures. Both take standard tile cleaners, but porcelain tolerates stronger abrasives and is less prone to staining — ceramic with a damaged glaze can absorb liquids and stain permanently.

Last reviewed April 2026 by Simply Maid's cleaning team.
