DIN EN 13845:2005-10

This document 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, the document includes a classification system (see EN 685) based on intensity of use, which shows where resilient floor coverings should give satisfactory service. In addition, the document 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.
