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 Cosmic series is an Italian-made rectified color body porcelain. Created using digital print technology, its pattern mimics the look of natural stone, enhancing its organic appearance. Given the beautiful selection of color options available in the series, Cosmic offers the timeless appeal of natural-stone with the practical properties of porcelain tile. Unlike natural stone, minimal maintenance is required.
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.
Because this material is a porcelain product, minimal maintenance is required. For proper bonding, medium bed mortar 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.
