View Baar | Italian Porcelain Tile
Baar presents a realistic and elevated porcelain version of Jura stone. The graphic faithfully represents the real Jura, including the fossils that are characteristic of this distinctive limestone. Various prehistoric animals are evident, such as nautilus, annelids, and other interesting critters. The fossils are different sizes and shapes, with some light and some dark; they add depth and create beautiful graphic movement. The three colors have gentle shade variation and a surface texture which add richness to the final look. As a stone look, this is a very sleek and sophisticated product.

Most Italian manufacturers recommend a maximum offset of 8” (20cm) on all large format tiles when setting a running bond. Please refer to ANSI requirements for setting large format tiles (ANSI A 108.2 Section 4.3.8). There are special setting requirements and materials for large format tiles. Please refer to the TCNA Handbook and guidelines by your mortar manufacturer for more information.
The Dynamic Coefficient of Friction is a general guide only. Testing may vary with different production runs and with different testing labs. As noted in the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) the coefficient of friction varies considerably due to facts not under the control of entities such as the manufacturers and distributors. These factors include, but are not limited to, contaminants, slope of terrain, drainage conditions, adjacent surfaces, etc. Suitability for any installation can only be determined by a site examination of all conditions that could affect the slip resistance of the tile being installed. Continual cleaning and maintenance must be performed once the tile has been installed.
