    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Defines the characteristics of floor coverings with sustainable enhanced slip resistant characteristics under specified conditions based on polyvinyl chloride and modifications thereof, supplied in either tile or roll form.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This European Standard specifies the characteristics of floor coverings with sustainable enhanced slip resistant characteristics under specified conditions based on polyvinyl chloride and modifications thereof, supplied in either tile or roll form.

    To encourage the consumer to make an informed choice, this European Standard includes a classification system (see EN ISO 10874 ) based on intensity of use, which shows where resilient floor coverings should give satisfactory service.

    In addition, this European Standard details the requirements for the information to be included on the packaging labels.

    The slip measurements are made in a laboratory on ex-factory floor covering surfaces only. The method described is suitable for testing on wet surfaces.
