Tile Suitability Icons
A Guide to Tile Suitability Icons
On all our stone products we use a series of icons to indicate to you where the tile is suitable to be used. Below is a description of each of these icons.
NOT suitable for heavy footfall
Areas that do not get heavy footfall as these tiles do not have the level of strength under continued heavy usage.
Heavy Footfall
For areas where there is heavy footfall and/or high levels of movement
Wet Access
Ideal for use in areas that have high levels of contact with water such as swimming pools and wet rooms.
Underfloor Heating
These tiles are suitable for use in conjunction with underfloor heating systems (electric and water based types).
Walls
Tiles with this icon are suitable for walls. Some tiles are suitable for walls only such as the Oyster Split Faced.
