    Non slip Polished Porcelain (white 600x600)

    I'm looking to have 75 m2 of PP tiles laid, and I would like if possible for these to be non-slip I can't seem to find many places that give the slip ratings. Am I looking for something that does not exist? I thought i read somewhere that the nano sealed stuff is less slippery. Many thanks.
