​​​ Best Practices in Material Descriptions


Designator – Manufacturer, Style # Style Name - Backing or Edging (Color # Color Name - Finish) – Size - Install Pattern – Grout Info - Grout Joint Size

Text in Black is only relevant to Ceramic/Porcelain Tile


Examples of the above material description would be:

CPT-1 – Shaw, 5T623 Delphi Tile (21327 Jade Palladium) – 24" x 24" – Random ASSUMED

LVT-1 – Interface, Textured Woodgrains 3.0mm – Square Edge (C01401 Antique Dark Oak) 25cm x 1m – Herringbone

WT-1 (Wall) – Daltile, Volume 1.0 (VL66 Waterfall Rectangle - Matte) – 12" x 24" x 5/16” – 

1/3 Offset – Epoxy Grout: Mapei (27 Silver) - 1/16" Joint



**Pro-Tip: If an assumption is made, note that section of the description with ASSUMED, 

so it is clear to the entire team. (see CPT-1 example above)

This information can all be entered in the No/SKU line – up to 255 characters, or broken between No/SKU and Description lines by entering the designator on the No/SKU line, and the remainder of the description on the Description line.
