How to Read the Icons
○ = Suitable / △ = Suitable with conditions / × = Not suitable / - = Not applicable
- Exterior Wall ○ Exterior wall areas of buildings and houses (please consult us separately regarding soffits and ceilings).
- Interior Wall ○ Interior wall areas of buildings and houses (bathroom walls, kitchen backsplashes, toilet walls, shop walls and other relatively low wall areas. Please consult us separately regarding soffits and ceilings).
- Interior Floor ○ Interior floor areas that do not get wet (kitchen floors, indoor toilets, indoor shop floors and other areas walked on in shoes or slippers, where the floor is not exposed to rainwater or other moisture).
- Exterior Floor ○ Exterior floors of buildings and houses, and floors walked on in shoes that get wet or where rainwater is carried in (including interior floors such as building lobbies and house entrances). Please consult us separately regarding public exterior areas such as parks and pavements.
- Slip Resistance R10 A measure of the slip resistance of floor tiles. This site lists either the C.S.R. value or the DIN 51130 rating. Note on DIN 51130: the higher the R value, the less slippery the tile. In Europe, tiles rated R10 or higher are recommended for outdoor use.
- Frost Resistance ○ Indicates whether the tile can be used in cold regions and other environments where temperatures fall below freezing.
Class BI (Porcelain) | Glazed
A technical homage to the micro-terrazzo tile originally developed in Venice, reworked here in a 90×90 format. SHAPED TECH technology renders the design more naturally, more precisely and more realistically, at a level of quality earlier ceramic tile could not reach. We recommend pairing it with the RABAT wall tile.

Features
—SHAPED TECH: pattern and relief in perfect register—
SENSA is produced with “Shaped Tech,” HARMONY’s own manufacturing method. The digitally printed pattern and the three-dimensional relief of the surface are brought into exact register during production, so what the eye sees and what the fingertips feel are one and the same. When light from indirect fixtures grazes the tile, the relief casts fine shadows and the surface changes character as the day goes on.
Cut samples are available if you would like to feel the Shaped Tech texture for yourself. Please use our sample request service.

FAQ
FAQ
Q1. What kind of tile is a Class BI tile?
It is a dry-pressed porcelain tile. Water absorption is 3.0% or less, which is very low, so it is highly water resistant. The surface is glazed, which suits it to interior and exterior walls and floors, wet areas and a wide range of other applications.
Q2. Can it be used outdoors?
Yes, on both walls and floors.
Q3. Is maintenance difficult?
No special maintenance is required. Porcelain tile resists staining, so wiping with water or a neutral detergent is enough for day-to-day cleaning.
Q4. Can it be used on bathroom floors?
Yes, on both walls and floors.
Q5. How long is the lead time?
This is an imported tile, so there may be a wait when it is out of stock. Lead times vary with the situation, so please check with us each time.
