DCOF Rating (See Tech Specs Tab) is a measurement of a tiles frictional resistance. It is the specifier’s responsibility to ensure the chosen tile is appropriate for each interior and exterior application.
The Bio Attitude series is a rectified glazed porcelain that captures the truest essence of oak, making us rediscover the rustic beauty of nature. An added benefit is that Bio Attitude features PROTECT® technology, which works continuously to eliminate up to 99.9% of bacteria. PROTECT® surfaces have been developed with Microban®, a proven antimicrobial product protection technology developed by the world leader in the sector. Integrated during the manufacturing stage, Microban® helps fight the growth of degrading bacteria on the surface of the tile for its expected lifetime. The result is a surface that stays cleaner and fresher in between cleans. It is also inherently more durable and unalterable by climate conditions. Because this material is a porcelain product, minimal maintenance is required. This series is suitable for residential and commercial applications.
Piece to piece variation in shade or color are inherent in all fired clay products; therefore, it is recommended to mix tiles from several boxes at a time during installation to achieve the best range of color. When mixing sizes within a series, shade, texture and calibration differences should be expected. This series is suitable for residential and commercial applications. A minimum 3/16 inch grout joint is recommended.
For proper bonding, LHT/LFT mortar for large format and heavy tiles should be used when installing tiles with a dimensional length greater than 15 inches and rectangular shape and plank tile, per industry standards. Proper thinset coverage is also necessary, and in some cases, back buttering of tile may be required.
