Variations in size, color, texture, and pattern not only should be expected in ceramic flooring, they should be enjoyed. This distinguishing characteristic of tile is a source of its natural beauty.

Each Shaw Ceramic flooring product is labeled for shade and color variation with one of the following ratings:

Low - Consistent shade and texture

Moderate - Moderate shade and texture variation

High - High shade and texture variation

Random - Very high shade and texture variation

For a neat, contemporary-looking tile floor, choose a tile with a low shade and texture rating. A tile with a high or random shade and texture rating will achieve a more casual, rustic effect.
