The ideal tile for demanding environments

Compliance with DIN 51130

DIN 51130 is an internationally recognised standard that assesses the slip resistance of floor coverings, under shod foot conditions. It was established to ensure safety in environments where slippery surfaces could pose a risk to users, such as in commercial, public or residential areas.

This standard tests the ability of tiles to prevent slipping, by simulating real-world conditions of use. The tests are carried out using an inclined ramp on which oil is applied. During the test, it is the angle of inclination where the person begins to slip that is measured. The result is expressed in a classification from R9 to R13. R9 indicates low slip resistance and R13 indicates very high resistance.

It is strongly recommended to choose tiles with a rating greater than or equal to R11 to ensure maximum safety. Tiles rated R11 and above offer better grip, even in wet or oily conditions. Choosing this non-slip tile significantly reduces the risk of falls and accidents.

Wide choice of colors and formats

In addition to meeting safety standards, the industrial tiles offered by Novoceram offer a varied palette of colors, allowing customization adapted to each project. Present in our selection, neutral colors such as gray, anthracite, ecru, white and black are essential when it comes to industrial tiles.
