Porcelain 101
Porcelain has been used for thousands of years to create a beautiful and durable finish that lasts. Porcelain enamel withstands high heat and acidic conditions like nothing else. Highly scratch resistant porcelain retains its beauty in touch environments - from architectural applications ( subway walls, school marker boards and signage ) to home appliances and fixtures ( barbecues, ovens, fireplaces, etc..)
