Healthy advantages of tile over other surfaces:

Easy to clean: Wiping with some soap and water is all that’s needed to clean up most messes — no harsh chemicals are necessary.
Bacteria-resistant: inhospitable to the growth of bacteria and other microbes such as mold.
Antimicrobial: options are available with antimicrobial properties that can suppress and even destroy harmful microorganisms, such as mold, fungi, bacteria, and viruses.
Hypoallergenic: contains no allergens, and allergens in the environment such as dust, dirt, and pollen can’t penetrate ceramic tile’s nonporous surface.
No volatile organic compounds (VOCs): VOCs are harmful gases that cause various health concerns and are emitted by virtually all flooring types except ceramic tile.
No formaldehyde: Some wood products may contain formaldehyde. Certain levels of formaldehyde can irritate asthma and other respiratory disorders, but ceramic tile does not contain formaldehyde.
No polyvinyl chloride (PVC): free of PVC, a resin found in vinyl flooring. PVC contains phthalates and organotins, both regularly a subject of concern among health experts.
No plastic: The health and environmental concerns associated with plastic aren’t an issue for ceramic tile.
Nontoxic: doesn’t emit any toxic fumes when exposed to fire.
Naturally occurring materials: a healthy choice for both you and the environment.
