Slip Resistance Coefficient

Slip resistance coefficient, often discussed as coefficient of friction, describes how a tested surface resists sliding under a defined method. Real-world feel can change with floor type, dust, moisture, socks, speed, and movement.

What to verify

  • Test method: check which method and conditions were used.
  • Floor setup: compare hardwood, tile, carpet, dust, and moisture conditions.
  • Use case: baby play, yoga, pets, and walking paths are different scenarios.
  • Boundary: no consumer mat should be treated as protective equipment.

PopsyKosy context

PopsyKosy interlocking tiles are intended for supervised family floor use on suitable indoor floors. Place the mat carefully, inspect edges, and do not treat it as a clinical, athletic, or protective device.

FAQ

What is a slip resistance coefficient?

It is a test-based way to describe sliding resistance under defined conditions. Real flooring and use conditions still matter.

Does a higher number prevent slips?

No. A test result does not remove the need for suitable placement, dry surfaces, edge checks, and supervision.
