Slip resistance: safety for you and your family!
Floors with slip resistance are suitable for outdoor and wet areas. This feature prevents slips and falls, especially in places where people walk barefoot, such as decks, pool edges, and balconies.
But how to choose the right flooring?
Pay attention to the FFO use class: This is a classification for flat outdoor areas, ensuring maximum grip and safety.
Slip resistance: Choose floors with a coefficient of friction above 0.4. The higher the coefficient, the greater the grip.
Also remember:
Pay even more attention in areas with water accumulation! Use only FFO-grade flooring.
Sunscreen and suntan lotion may increase the risk of falls. Slip-resistant floors ensure more safety for you and your family.
Choose the floor that best suits you and make your home safer and more comfortable!

Remember: Installing bold finish tiles requires skilled labor and high-quality grout for a good result.
Which finish to choose?

- If you are looking for a modern and clean look, the rectified one is the best option.
- If you want a rustic and cozy look, the bold one is the perfect choice.
