What does wear grade mean?
In simple terms, walking on floors causes abrasion. On glazed floors (including mosaics) this can result in scratching and dulling of the glaze and consequent change in colour, loss of gloss and ultimately wear. Some wear and tear is unavoidable although regular cleaning, mats at points of entry for example can reduce wear potential.

Some wear and tear is unavoidable although regular cleaning, mats at points of entry for example can reduce wear potential. Please note that full bodied porcelain tiles (such as our large format Project series) are not subjected to this test as there is no glazed wearing surface. For this reason, the letters N/A (not applicable) are shown.
