    Hi - have a look at Marazzi sistem n. We have them in our bathroom - they have both anti slip tiles (bocciadato) and smooth porcelain in a range of sizes and colours. we have the anti slip in our wetroom and the normal ones in the rest of the bathroom.

    Not cheap - around £35 psm - but worth it.

    We used "Sequoia Grip Dark Oak" porcelain tiles from Tile Giant. They're R11 rated, which from brightontraveller's post above might not quite be optimal, but they work OK for us and certainly aren't stipple/studded/polka dot effect. They were on offer when we bought them so are rather more expensive now, but still not off the scale.

    Much cheaper that the ones I had been looking at that claimed to be non-slip, but are R10 they are not!

    Altro in a wet room would need to be rolled up to wall by 120mm. You would need to use a specialist in this field as the corners need welding

    Always think it still gives a clinical look,

    You do run into issues if using screens as you must not cut the pro- forma trims that roll the vinyl up the wall.

    I don't really care if it gives a clinical look. I'm much more interested in the non-slip properties. It looks fine in the photos I saw online.

    EDIT: I've just spoken to them to order samples, and they said they have brought out a new range called Pisces which is less clinical looking, and has been designed for the domestic market.
