What is an R value?2021-03-05T10:44:43+01:00

Every year millions of people end up in the hospital due to a fall due to slipping. Slippery floors due to moisture, chemicals or greases are a major cause of this type of accident. Requirements regarding floor safety are increasingly formulated and laid down in standards. The anti-slip value of a surface is indicated with an R-value. This R-value is divided into five categories, related to the level of the slip risk. To determine the R-value, the surface is tested on an adjustable, inclined surface. R11 is recommended for surfaces with a normal risk of slipping. Surfaces with an increased risk of slipping should be at least R12. The coefficient of friction is indicated by the μ (Mu) symbol. The NEN7909 describes a method for determining the dynamic friction coefficient of floors and sets limit values for dry floors (μ > 0.30), wet floors (μ > 0.40) and wet floors in swimming pools (μ > 0.45).

As the owner, am I liable for unsafe floors?2021-03-05T10:41:12+01:00

Owners or managers of a floor, staircase or other surface inside or outside the building are liable for the safety of residents, visitors, passers-by, personnel or third parties. If you cannot prove that you have taken preventive measures to prevent slippage, you are liable and responsible. This can entail very high costs and is also not a good advertisement for your company, building, shopping centre or facility. With the anti-slip solutions from GripFactory you reduce the risk of slips and thus claims.
