| Floor Tiles |
Indoor preferred for polished floors; suitable tested varieties can be used in sheltered outdoor areas with textured finishes. |
Best for cost-effective large floors with uniform tile calibration, stable bedding and periodic surface maintenance. |
Large residential floors, institutional corridors, hotels, commercial halls |
Polished tiles can be slick; textured or honed finish improves commercial-floor grip. |
Dry-sweep often, neutral-mop and periodically polish or reseal heavily used flooring. |
Cost-effective large floors in hotels and institutional interiors |
Very wet entrances and poorly supported floors |
| Stair Treads |
Suitable indoors and sheltered outdoors; warm, dry conditions work best with slip-resistant finishing and sealing. |
Best for frequently used stairs with stable support, routine cleaning and honed or textured grip. |
Villa stairs, commercial staircases, apartment steps and practical high-use interior treads. |
Low slip concern when properly textured and kept dry. |
Sweep frequently under regular traffic, clean with a stone-safe neutral product, dry moisture quickly, and keep the textured surface free from buildup. |
Practical high-use stair treads for villas, apartments and commercial interiors. |
Smooth wet stairs, unstable substrates or high-use steps where routine cleaning and grip maintenance are impractical. |

Best indoors; exterior vanity use should be limited to sheltered, dry locations protected from direct sun and rain. |
Best for everyday vanity areas with controlled splashing, sealed surfaces and prompt toiletry cleanup. |
Family bathrooms, apartment vanities, hotel guestrooms and practical residential washrooms. |
Slip resistance is generally irrelevant for everyday bathroom vanity applications. |
Wipe daily splashes quickly, use mild cleaner and reseal when water begins absorbing |
Practical vanity surfaces for family bathrooms, apartments and everyday hotel washrooms |
Unsheltered exterior wash areas, neglected wet vanities, or settings where frequent chemical cleaning is unavoidable. |

Best indoors; outdoor table tops should remain shaded and protected from rainfall, prolonged sunlight and temperature fluctuations. |
Best for lightly to moderately used table tops with coasters, stable support and protection from staining or scratching. |
Coffee tables, dining side tables, office tables and warm neutral decorative furniture tops. |
Table tops do not require pedestrian slip classification. |
Use coasters and felt pads, blot spills promptly and clean with pH-neutral stone cleaner. |
Practical decorative table tops requiring warm neutral colouring and understated natural character. |
Avoid heavy work surfaces, direct cutting and tables exposed to frequent acidic spills or hard impacts. |
| Decorative Borders |
Indoor decorative borders preferred; sheltered exterior use may suit warm, dry climates with sealing and controlled moisture. |
Best for decorative borders with stable bedding, sealed joints and protection from edge damage. |
Floor borders, doorway bands, foyer accents, decorative architectural transitions. |
Match surrounding flooring traction; avoid polished borders where moisture is possible. |
Sweep around borders regularly, clean neutrally and inspect edges, joints and inlays for damage. |
Decorative floor detailing where subtle contrast helps frame spaces without becoming visually dominant. |
Avoid loading-area borders, industrial floor transitions and decorative inlays subjected to repeated heavy impacts. |
