The "bauen.de" portal provides information on tile types for different living areas. Tiles have to meet different requirements. For example, tiles in the bathroom are exposed to moisture and should also be non-slip. There are even so-called slip resistance classes for this, with R13 offering the greatest possible slip resistance. Private individuals should choose at least slip resistance class R10.
Tiles can be used not only in the bathroom, but also in living areas. Among other things, they are considered easy to clean and hygienic. Underfloor heating is also possible under the tiles. According to "bauen.de", you should pay particular attention to the abrasion class in living areas. The abrasion classes vary from class 1 to class 5, with class 5 tiles having the highest abrasion resistance.
While tiles with a high degree of abrasion should be laid in rooms that get dirty quickly, such as kitchens or hallways, tiles with a low degree of abrasion are sufficient for bedrooms. In addition to slip resistance and abrasion resistance, tiles also differ in terms of material: a distinction is made between ceramic and natural stone tiles. Interested parties can find out which tiles are in vogue and what to look out for when laying tiles at bauen.de.
