Porcelain Tile Question

[Domochu]

Hi,

I'm about to pull the trigger on this thru-body porcelain tile here at 1.68$ sqft for my garage.

I look at the label and have a hard time understanding what all those numbers mean. I know I should look for PEI of 4-5 but I can't seem to relate this to what the label says.

Can anyone please help in identifying/converting this to PEI rating?

Thanks a lot!

those numbers don't tell you much. They give some basics about the tile durability and moisture characteristics but not much else:

The EN numbers are test methods prescribed by an industry standard (EN is not a US standard).

The first is how permeable it is to water as measured by test "EN 99"
The second is impact resistance measured by test "EN 100"
The third states that it's resistant to chemicals as per test "EN 106"
And the last says that it is frost resistant as per test "EN 202"

These don't say anything about friction when wet or a PEI rating but if it's a full body tile, the PEI rating is probably quite high.
