Record types allows you to display different standard page layouts for records on the same object.
For example, Account object could be defined with 2 record types : Customer and Prospect.
On Customer detail pages you could display Assets, while a prospect has no asset yet, the page will be lighter (less fields, less related lists)
You can define per profile who can create records of which record types

Record types in Salesforce are incredible tools that manage the organized data about an object.
Record types control page layouts and picklist values of an object which will be visible to different users while creating a record of that object.
