| Flooring Tiles |
Best indoors for flooring; covered exterior areas may be suitable with a honed or textured finish rather than high polish. |
Best for moderate indoor foot traffic with sealed joints, routine dust removal and protection from abrasive grit. |
Villa living rooms, hotel guestrooms, hallways, warm-toned interior flooring |
Moderate slip risk when polished; honed finish suits circulation better. |
Sweep sand frequently, damp-mop with pH-neutral cleaner and reseal high-use flooring when absorption increases. |
Warm villa flooring, guestrooms and residential hallways |
Wet polished floors, abrasive sandy zones and very heavy pedestrian traffic. |
| Bathroom Vanities |
Indoor preferred; exterior bathroom vanities should remain fully shaded and protected from rain and heat. |
Regular vanity use with controlled moisture and mild cleaning products |
Villa bathrooms, hotel guestrooms and warm beige vanity areas |
No walking-slip requirement for bathroom vanity applications |
Keep toiletries and moisture from lingering, clean with mild neutral products, and periodically reseal vulnerable vanity areas. |
Well suited to villa bathrooms, hotel guestrooms and warm beige vanity installations with regular but carefully managed use. |
Avoid exposed exterior vanities, continuously wet counters and high-abuse washrooms where toiletries or harsh cleaners may remain on the surface. |
| Stair Treads |
Best indoors; covered outdoor stair treads can suit warm, dry climates with textured finishing and regular sealing. |
Best for moderate-use stair treads with solid support, slip-conscious finishing and routine maintenance of edges and sealed surfaces. |
Residential stair treads, hotel staircases, villa circulation and warm beige architectural steps. |
Better grip with honed or textured finishing; polished stair treads may become slick when wet. |
Sweep stair dirt frequently, use pH-neutral cleaner and renew sealing on worn tread areas |
Warm-toned residential and hospitality stair treads with moderate traffic, solid support and slip-conscious finishing. |
Polished stairs near wet entrances, intense public circulation, poorly supported treads or areas where edge wear and sealing receive little maintenance. |
| Fireplace Surrounds |
Best indoors; covered exterior fireplace surrounds can work in dry, mild weather protected from rain and strong sunlight. |
Dry fireplace use with stable installation, moderate warmth and controlled soot buildup |
Villa fireplaces, hotel lounges and warm beige hearth surrounds |
Slip performance is irrelevant to fireplace surround surfaces |
Brush away ash gently, wipe soot promptly and maintain stone-safe sealing |
Warm beige fireplace surrounds suited to villas, hotels and comfortable classic interiors. |
Fire chambers and direct flame-exposed hearth interiors |
| Wall Cladding |
Best indoors; covered exterior wall cladding can work in mild, dry conditions with sealing and secure fixing |
Wall cladding with stable backing, secure fixing and minimal repeated physical impact |
Hotel corridors, villas and warm brown interior wall cladding |
Vertical wall cladding requires no pedestrian slip classification |
Dust cladding regularly, remove marks with pH-neutral cleaner and check seams and corners for damage |
Warm hotel corridor wall cladding |
Lower corridor walls exposed to carts and mechanical impacts |
