In both commercial and residential settings, the choice of flooring material is critical to ensuring user safety. Especially in humid areas such as kitchens, bathrooms and around swimming pools, the anti-slip properties of ceramic tiles are particularly important. Today we will discuss why the slip resistance of ceramic tiles is so important and how to detect the slip resistance level of ceramic tiles.
1. Why is slip resistance important?
Safety: Anti-skid tiles can significantly reduce the probability of slip and fall accidents. Especially when there are elderly people and children in the family, choosing tiles with good anti-skid properties can effectively avoid accidental injuries.
Durability: Ceramic tiles with a non-slip surface tend to be more wear-resistant and can withstand long-term stepping and friction without being easily damaged.
Aesthetics: Modern anti-slip ceramic tiles are not only practical, but also come in various designs to meet the needs of various decoration styles.
2. Testing method for anti-slip properties of ceramic tiles
Static coefficient of friction test: This is a commonly used test method to evaluate the coefficient of friction of ceramic tile surfaces in dry and wet conditions. This test is usually done by a professional laboratory.
Dynamic friction coefficient test: This method simulates the changes in friction when people walk, which can more truly reflect actual usage conditions.
Inclined platform test: Place the tile on an inclined platform and gradually increase the angle of inclination until people or objects begin to slide to determine its anti-slip rating.
3. Choose suitable anti-slip tiles
When choosing anti-slip tiles, you should consider the following factors:
Usage environment: Factors such as humidity and human flow in different areas will affect the selection of ceramic tiles.
Cleaning and Maintenance: Tiles that are easy to clean maintain good anti-slip properties.
Aesthetics: Choose a design that matches the overall decoration style.
