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.
