Resilient Floor Coverings - Polyvinyl Chloride Floor Coverings with Particle-Based Enhanced Slip Resistance - Specification
Also Known As:
The requirements for polyvinyl chloride (PVC) floor coverings with improved slip resistance are outlined in the DIN EN 13845 standard. These floor coverings, which might come in the form of tiles or rolls, are made to offer long-lasting slip resistance under particular circumstances.
The standard contains a system of use-intensity classification that aids consumers in determining whether particular floor coverings are appropriate for particular uses. The criteria listed in EN ISO 10874 serve as the foundation for this classification scheme.
In order to help consumers make informed decisions, the standard also specifies the details that should be on the packaging labels of these floor coverings.
It should be mentioned that these floor coverings' slide tests are carried out in a lab environment on surfaces that are still in their original state. Slip resistance on wet surfaces can be evaluated using the testing procedure outlined in the standard.
