The portal "bauen.de" provides information about types of tiles for different living areas. In the process, tiles must meet different requirements. For example, tiles in the bathroom are exposed to moisture and should also be slip-resistant. There are even so-called slip resistance classes for this, with R13 offering the greatest possible slip resistance. Private individuals should choose at least the slip resistance class R10.
Tiles can be used not only in the bathroom, but also in the living areas. Among other things, they are considered easy to clean and hygienic. In addition, underfloor heating is also possible under the tiles. In living areas, according to "bauen.de", one should pay particular attention to the abrasion class. The abrasion classes differ from class 1 to class 5, whereby tiles with class 5 have the highest abrasion resistance.
While in rooms such as the kitchen or hallway, which get dirty quickly, tiles with a high degree of abrasion should be installed, tiles with a low degree of abrasion are sufficient for bedrooms. In addition to the slip resistance and the degree of abrasion, tiles also differ in terms of material: a distinction is made between ceramic and natural stone tiles. To find out which tiles are in fashion and what to look out for when laying tiles, visit bauen.de.
