"Summary for decision-makers:

Recent innovation in bathroom surface technology offers a revolutionary anti-slip solution that combines aesthetics and safety. Unlike traditional rubber mats, which are often perceived as unsightly and unhygienic, this technology uses a treatment based on ultrafine ceramic particles embedded in vitrified steel. The unique feature of this surface is its anti-slip ability, which is activated only in the presence of water, providing increased safety during showers or baths, while maintaining a modern and elegant appearance. Certification tests have shown that slipping only occurs at a significant angle, surpassing current safety standards.

This innovative surface eliminates the need for traditional mats, reducing the risk of dirt, fungus, and germs. Furthermore, its resistance to abrasive cleaning products ensures easy maintenance without compromising its effectiveness. This technology offers users significant peace of mind, especially for the elderly and families with children, while also enhancing the aesthetic appeal of modern bathrooms. A significant advancement that combines design, safety, and functionality.

Innovative surfaces now offer optimal safety for showering and bathing without compromising aesthetics.

Optimal safety for showering and bathing thanks to an invisible non-slip surface

What is this new technology?

One of the most common household accidents is falling in the shower or bathtub. Traditionally, rubber mats or non-slip surfaces have been used as preventative solutions. However, these solutions can often appear unsightly and unhygienic. The latest innovation in the world of bathrooms combines the shine and smoothness of glazed steel with unparalleled anti-slip safety. This non-slip surface is not only invisible to the eye, but also to the touch. What's most fascinating is that its protective effect is only activated in the presence of water.

How does it work?

The magic lies in the surface treatment. A suspension of ultrafine ceramic particles is used, bonding firmly to the bathtub or shower surface. Regardless of the color chosen, these surfaces retain their shine and feel smooth. What's more, this anti-slip technology is resistant, even to abrasive cleaning products. The surfaces can be cleaned as usual without compromising the anti-slip effect.

Why is it important?

This innovation offers additional peace of mind, especially for the elderly, families with young children, or anyone seeking increased safety in the bathroom. Several certification tests have demonstrated its effectiveness. During these tests, an individual stands on a soapy surface that gradually slopes. With this innovative surface treatment, slipping only begins at a considerable angle, thus exceeding established safety standards.

What are the additional benefits?

This innovative surface eliminates the need for rubber mats or traditional anti-slip pads. No more porous surfaces that are breeding grounds for dirt, fungus, or germs. These contaminants now have few opportunities to cling to the hygienic surface of the treated, glass-coated steel.

Technological advances continue to transform our daily lives, including our bathrooms. This innovative non-slip surface promises not only safety and peace of mind, but also aesthetics and ease of maintenance. A revolution for all lovers of design and functionality.
