The market leader in Pakistan. Known for high-end designs and durability. Their today tile rate is usually the benchmark for the local industry.
Popular for bathroom and kitchen wall tiles. They offer a huge variety of patterns and textures at a slightly more affordable price point than Master.
A great choice for those looking for modern, minimalist porcelain designs for large drawing rooms and lounges.
One of the oldest brands in Pakistan, famous for high-quality ceramic floor tiles that withstand heavy foot traffic.
Understanding the difference is crucial for your budget:
Ceramic Tiles: Softer and easier to cut. Primarily used for bathroom walls and indoor areas with light traffic. They are cheaper.
Porcelain Tiles: Much harder and denser. They are water-resistant and used for main floors, car porches, and outdoor areas. They command a higher tile rate.
Prices can fluctuate based on the dealer's location and stock availability.
Gujranwala: Generally the cheapest for local tiles (as most factories are located here).
Lahore/Karachi: Highly competitive rates with a vast variety of imported options.
Islamabad: Prices are often 5-8% higher due to showroom overheads and transportation.
How many tiles are in one box?
This depends on the size. For 12x24 tiles, there are usually 8-9 pieces. For large 24x24 tiles, there are typically 4 pieces per box. Always check the total square footage mentioned on the box.
What is "Master Quality" or "A-Grade" in tiles?
Tiles are sorted at the factory. A-Grade (Premium) has no visible defects. B-Grade might have slight color variations or minor corner chips, and is sold at a 20-30% discount.
Which tile is best for a car porch?
For a car porch, always use Full Body Porcelain or Tuff Tiles. Standard ceramic tiles will crack under the weight of a vehicle.
Does the tile rate include installation?
No. The today tile rate in Pakistan only refers to the cost of the material. Installation (labor + bond/cement) typically costs an additional Rs. 50 – 80 per square foot.
