Putting a pic on a ceramic tile - Good companies?

[swag72]

I am looking at putting some of my pics onto ceramic tiles, and wonder whether anyone has done this and could recommend a company that does it and does it well.

They would be outside, so I want them as scratch resistant as possible and in a matte finish.

Anybody any ideas or direct experience of this medium?

Nope but what a great question and I am also watching for replies....

Not heard of it, but I really like the idea.
Well worth looking into

Not had it done but I know it can be done - http://www.digitalceramictiles.co.uk/pages/digital_ceramic_tiles_05.html Sorry if you already have a company but thought it might help.

Not 100% how this will work as ceramic tiles aren't frost proof

you could transfer print it your self, then protect it with a varnish... I've done this for transfers on cars & motobike tanks...not that hard to do..mark.

Not entirely true.

But frost proof tiles are damn expensive and ugly.

How do you think most shops have tiles on the fronts?

Mostly the tiles used are either porcelain tiles or unglazed ceramic tiles (or they take the risk on glazed ceramic)

Not too fussed about frost as it's going up in Spain. Will definately contact you Steve once I know the maximum size at the end of Jan
