The specs state a DCOF rating of less than 0.42, but prior comments by a Merola state the DCOF is 0.49. Can you verify the correct one?
Asked by Steve March 8, 2020Very nice tile, I have it in my bathroom. I'm not sure regarding the DCOF rating but it's not slippy. They make the same tile in ceramic and its thinner and it's a little more slippery, the porcelain is better and thicker.

Asked by TL February 21, 2020These tiles are very smooth and become slippery when wet. I would not recommend for outdoor use.

Are the tiles safe around a woodstove? Are they fireproof?
Asked by Jane November 15, 2019Hi, Jane! Yes, our Arte White is suitable for a freestanding fire burning stove installation as this tile is heated to temperatures over thousands of degrees during the manufacturing process. If you have any further questions, please give us a call at (800)-963-7652.

Asked by lee April 21, 2019Hi, Lee! Our Arte White is suitable for shower floor installations as it is slip-resistant and ADA compliant. Though this tile is glazed, it has a low sheen(matte) surface, which also helps with slip resistance. If you have any further questions about the tile, please give us a call at (800)-963-7652.

Asked by AG April 16, 2019No need to use epoxy grout. We used a sanded grout with 1/8" lines. Worked like a charm.
