ISO 4918:2016 PDF Download

The performance of resilient, textile, and laminate floor coverings when subjected to the movement of a castor chair is evaluated using the procedures described in ISO 4918:2016. The standard focuses on evaluating how the floor covering changes during this test in terms of appearance, stability, and potential damage.

The standard offers instructions for conducting tests to see if the floor covering experiences any layer separation, joint opening, or crazing (the development of minute fractures or lines) when moved by a castor chair. Castor chairs are frequently used in a variety of contexts, therefore these tests assist in determining the resistance and longevity of the floor covering under regular usage conditions.
