• What are slip ratings
  

  Tile slip ratings, also known as slip resistance ratings, are a measure of how slippery a tile surface is when wet. They are used to indicate the level of safety a tile can provide in areas where there is a risk of slipping, such as in bathrooms, kitchens, and other areas where water may be present.

  The slip ratings are determined by conducting a test in which a rubber slider is moved across the tile surface at a specific angle and pressure. The results are then used to assign a rating to the tile, with the rating indicating the level of slip resistance the tile has.

  There are different standards and methods used to test and assign slip ratings, but generally, tiles are rated on a scale from 0-100, with higher numbers indicating a higher level of slip resistance.
