View Tibur | Italian Porcelain Tile
The Tibur series was inspired by Jerusalem stone, a well-known limestone that has been used for centuries. This porcelain version has some special details that make it especially interesting. Even though it is a rectified tile, the edges are gently chiseled. The surface is also not completely flat; it has some undulation and some areas of indentation to give the feel of old stone. The semi-polishing of the Vintage finish creates a unique effect on the undulated surface and has a soft “rubbed” feel to it. The mosaics - a Herringbone in the Vintage finish and the Intreccio Mosaic in the Natural finish - make this line a complete package.

Installation
To attain the proper mix of graphics and color it is important to pull from multiple boxes during installation, rotate pieces, and note the placement of the different images to get the proper final blend. 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.
