The common adopted measure for exterior tiles is the “Oil Wet Ramp Test” which reports as “R” followed by a number. Ranges from R9 - R13. As a rule of thumb R10 and higher is acceptable for exterior wet areas. A higher number means more anti-slip.

V1 = Uniform appearance from tile to tile
V2 = Slight variation from tile to tile
V3 = Features moderate variation from tile to tile
V4 = Features substantial variation from tile to tile

Some unglazed and natural products require sealers to keep the surface easy to clean and keep the product maintained. Tilemax imports many polished porcelain tiles that feature a “nano technology” sealed surface to save the sealing requirement after installation, hence these products do not require sealing. However after prolonged use or extreme wear these products may require resealing to maintain the surface.
