Make sure you buy the right tile for your project
Bathrooms can be high-traffic places, especially if you have a large family with kids, but they can also be relatively low-traffic if you have a small one or 2-person family.
The bath is always known as the "wettest room in the house." And you need to be sure it has?
good grip or traction, especially if you have kids or senior residents living with you.
Make sure you describe your project in the tile store. And read labels thoroughly.
Porcelain: non-absorbent, heavier and dense
Porcelain tile is an excellent choice for the bath, whether yours is high or low traffic. It's made of a nonporous clay called Kaolin, with sand and glass.
Porcelain comes in assorted colors and textures; it is, in fact, the preferred choice for wood-and-stone look tiles.

Ceramic tiles graded Category 3
Ceramic tiles are graded by category; three means best for indoor, moderately busy floors. They also have a COF (coefficient of friction) that indicates grip or traction.?
Select one with a COF (coefficient of friction) of .50 or higher. Remember, you can always add more grip by choosing one with texture.
