An elegant home, a happy, and peaceful living space are always key priorities when designing a house. In reality, beyond aesthetic appeal, homeowners are also concerned about selecting tiles that can ensure safety. Vietceramics can meet this need with tile collections that feature standard anti-slip ratings, a variety of designs, and suitability for various spaces. Using anti-slip floor tiles ensures safety in high-traffic areas and surfaces that are frequently exposed to water and grease, such as bathrooms, kitchens, gardens, and swimming pools. For families with elderly members and small children, in particular, choosing anti-slip floor tiles is the optimal solution to ensure the safety of everyone. Here is a summary of Vietceramics' tile collections, which stand out for their excellent anti-slip properties for both indoor and outdoor use, giving you more ideas to design your ideal living space.
What is the Anti-Slip Rating?
The anti-slip rating of a tile is determined by the R-Test method according to the German standard DIN 51130, which classifies anti-slip capabilities into grades from R9 to R13. This method is tested by having a person wearing safety boots and a harness walk on a tile surface that has been coated with oil. The incline of the floor is increased until the person slips. The recorded number at that moment corresponds to the R-grade anti-slip rating.

R9: This rating applies to tiles with a matte and relatively smooth surface, suitable for dry indoor areas such as living rooms and bedrooms.
R10: This rating is suitable for damp areas, ideal for bathrooms and kitchens, hallways, or some outdoor areas.
R11: This rating is considered safe for both dry and wet environments, perfect for residential areas like bathrooms, kitchens, and pool surrounds, or for commercial areas such as lobbies and mid-range restaurant kitchens.
R12: This rating is safe for installation in residential areas like kitchens, bathrooms, and hallways, as well as in commercial spaces from public restrooms, swimming pools, and changing rooms to hotel lobbies, shopping centers, airports, and parking lots.
R13: This rating is recommended for areas that are frequently exposed to water and have a high risk of slipping, such as areas around swimming pools, spas, and saunas, and in certain kitchen applications.
StepWise™ Technology is a proven technology that gives tile collections a 50% higher anti-slip capability than standard tiles. This exclusive technology is applied throughout the production process, creating a glossy surface that still ensures effective anti-slip properties. It is durable and easy to clean and maintain, even in commercial spaces with high foot traffic. (The Dynamic Coefficient of Friction - DCOF - meets the standard of 0.60 Newton, which is higher than the standard of 0.42 Newton). This is considered an ideal solution for crowded areas such as transportation hubs, commercial kitchens, swimming pools, public restrooms, public showers, and outdoor areas of hotels.
