Midnight Black Quartz Tiles Sealing

[jasta1966]

Hi, I am a newbie and wondered if anybody can help. I have just bought the above tiles from TilesPorcelain and finished tilins/grouting etc but wondered if they need sealing. I have had differing views - some say these must be sealed with a penetrative sealer but others say these tiles only have a 0.02% absorption rate and so do not need tiling. Would also appreciate if you could advise, if they don't need sealing do I need to seal the grout areas?

Many Thanks

Sorry, forgot to say the company I bought them from are the ones who said I don't need to seal the tiles but I always worry as the tiles are in a walk in shower and so will be subject to a lot of water.

No you do not need to seal resin quartz..
