You can see the conversation two comments up and then also a few comments above that: Porcelain flooring tiles should automatically comply; however to be sure of getting the right review response, select "alternative compliance method", list any non-organic flooring products there and if you have it, upload the manufacturer's statement declaring the material content as support. I have been able to state in the narrative what the material of the tile is and it has been accepted. Secondly don't forget the grout. If its simple cement grout, its also exempt but any other grout compound must be uploaded here and also uploaded in IEQ 4.1 Adhesives and Sealants in case you are pursuing that credit.
