Anti-slip flooring is an effective solution to ensure safety on all types of surfaces, both indoors and outdoors. These surfaces can become hazardous when wet or exposed to damp conditions, but with the use of anti-slip flooring, the risks of slips, falls and injuries are minimised.
To measure the degree of slipperiness of porcelain stoneware, two widely recognised international standards are mainly used: UNE-ENV 12633, which determines the coefficient of friction and therefore the slip resistance of ceramic surfaces, and DIN 51097, which focuses on assessing the slip resistance of flooring in wet areas such as swimming pools, showers or bathrooms.
Based on these two standards, Cerámica Mayor’s non-slip porcelain stoneware is classified as C3 and, therefore, is a material with maximum efficiency to prevent accidents and falls in swimming pools, wet areas and high traffic areas.
