When selecting tiles
it's essential to understand the following technical specifications to ensure
they meet your project's requirements:
1. Shade Variation
(V-Rating): This indicates
the degree of color and pattern variation among individual tiles within a
collection.
- V1 (Uniform Appearance):
Minimal to no variation; tiles are consistent in color and pattern
- V2 (Slight Variation): Subtle
differences in color and texture, providing a more natural look
- V3 (Moderate Variation):
Noticeable variation, offering a dynamic and varied appearance
- V4 (Substantial Variation):
Significant differences, creating a highly varied and unique aesthetic
2. Slip Resistance
(R-Rating): This measures a
tile's ability to prevent slips, especially in wet conditions, and is crucial
for safety in areas like bathrooms and kitchens.
- R9: Low slip resistance;
suitable for dry, low-traffic areas
- R10: Moderate slip resistance;
appropriate for general indoor use
- R11: High slip resistance;
ideal for areas prone to moisture
- R12 – R13: Very high slip
resistance; used in commercial or industrial settings
3. PEI Rating
(Porcelain Enamel Institute Rating): This assesses the durability and abrasion resistance of a
tile's glazed surface, guiding its suitability for various applications.
- PEI 1: Suitable only for wall
applications; not recommended for floors
- PEI 2: Appropriate for light
traffic residential areas, such as bathrooms
- PEI 3: Suitable for all
residential floors and walls
- PEI 4: Ideal for residential
and light commercial use
- PEI 5: Designed for heavy
commercial areas with high foot traffic
Understanding these
specifications will help you choose the appropriate tile for your specific
needs, ensuring both aesthetic appeal and functional performance.
