Slip Resistant Tiles

Explore porcelain tiles with PTV 36+ slip-resistant finish options for residential, hospitality, retail and commercial projects. This collection helps architects, interior designers, specifiers and homeowners find floor tiles where underfoot safety is an important part of the brief.

What does PTV 36+ mean?

PTV is a Pendulum Test Value used when assessing the slip resistance of flooring. A result of 36 or above is commonly used as an indicator of low slip potential in the relevant test condition. The recorded result can differ between wet, dry, shod and barefoot conditions, so always check the exact product variant and manufacturer data before specifying.

Choosing a slip-resistant tile

• Select the exact finish or variant marked PTV 36+; other finishes within the same range may have a different result.
• Check whether the result applies to shod or barefoot use and whether it was recorded in wet or dry conditions.
• Consider the expected traffic, contaminants, gradients, cleaning regime and maintenance requirements.
• Request technical information or samples before final specification.
