Brown 3PLY Hard Sheet tested in Building Research Establishment (BRE Laboratory) – London, UK. In order to determine the product’s impact resistance it was tested in accordance with BS EN ISO 10545-5 "Ceramic Tiles Part 5: Determination of Impact Resistance by Measurement of Coefficient of Restitution"
The test was repeated on ceramic tiles covered by the product to evaluate the new Coefficient of Restitution and the degree of damage of the ceramic tile made by the falling object.
The results showed a reduction in the coefficient of restitution when covering the ceramic tiles with the product. This will help in reducing the effect of any impact forces due to any falling objects on the floors when covered with the product.
