Collection:	Ceramic Solutions
Construction:	Porcelain Tile
Glaze Hardness:	7.000 GLAZE HARDNESS The relative hardness of glazed tile is an important issue that should be addressed when selecting a tile. The test is performed by scratching the surface of the tile with different minerals and subjectively assigning a Method of Hardness "MOH's" number to the glaze. The softest mineral used is talc (a #1 rating if no scratch), the hardest is a diamond (a #10 rating if no scratch). Other minerals of varying hardness that provide MOH's values of five or greater are suitable for most residential floor applications while a value of seven or greater is normally recommended for commercial applications. Both abrasion resistance and glaze hardness should be addressed when considering using glazed tiles as floor products.
Shade & Texture Variation:	High SHADE & TEXTURE VARIATION Variations in size, color, texture, and pattern are to expected in ceramic flooring. In fact, they should be enjoyed. These variations are part of what makes ceramic tile such a unique and beautiful choice for your home. Each Shaw Ceramic flooring product is labeled for shade and color variation with one of the following ratings: Low – Consistent shade and texture Moderate – Moderate shade and texture variation High – High shade and texture variation Random – Very high shade and texture variation For a neat, contemporary-looking tile floor, choose a tile with a low shade and texture rating. A tile with a high or random shade and texture rating will achieve a more casual, rustic effect.

(Porcelain Enamel Institute) Wear Rating To minimize the possibility of choosing the wrong product, Shaw joins most manufacturers in the use of the P.E.I Wear Rating System to rate the durability of each tile. The ratings range from Group I to Group V, with Group V being the most durable. Below is a general description of each category. Group I - Tiles suitable only for residential bathrooms where softer footwear is worn. Group II - Tiles suited to general residential traffic, except kitchens, entrance halls, and other areas subjected to continuous heavy use. For all residential and light commercial interiors such as offices, reception areas and boutiques. Group III - Tiles suited for all residential and light commercial interiors such as offices, reception areas and boutiques. Group IV - Tiles suited for all residential interior and moderate traffic commercial applications. Group V - Recommended for all interior residential and commercial uses. Important Note: The wear rating of the tile rates only its durability, not its quality or price.	Price Range (Material Only)

Matrix is your starting point. It's an absolutely stunning porcelain tile--the quintessential transitional product. It's organic, soft, and vintage; but at the same time, it's edgy and modern. It mixes two hot looks--stained concrete and textured fabric--in a design that juxtaposes the old and the new.
