Wall tiles


Explanation:
Revestimentos são "Wall Tiles".

"Floor tiles" referem-se a pavimentos. Revestimentos, por estarem associados a paredes são referidos como "Wall tiles".

Os colegas me desculpem, mas "flooring" aplica-se somente ao pisto, "wall tiles" e "facing" aplica-se somente às paredes de fachadas, mas "revestimento" se aplica a qualquer coisa que for revestida com cerâmica: paredes, pisos, banheiras, piscinas, pilastras, churrasqueiras, etc. O termo genérico, que atende a todas as possibilidades é "lining".
