• The main advantage is the low coefficient of moisture absorption, which significantly increases the service life of the cladding. In comparison with ceramics, porcelain looks luxurious and expensive, visually resembles natural stone in many ways.

Naturally, the material is far from budget-friendly, however, due to its physical properties, with proper installation, granite cladding can serve for decades. 
• Marble. Another type of natural cladding belonging to the premium class. Marble has similar physical characteristics as granite, but it has a noble, luxurious appearance.

Such a stone does not lose its luster throughout the entire service life, therefore, choosing marble for bathroom cladding, you can not worry about the durability of the coating.

The main advantage of brick cladding is a modern appearance that you will like if you want something "like that".
