Non-slip Tape - Application Scheme

Here you will find the application chart for anti-slip tape and What does R10 / R13 mean?

It can sometimes be difficult to figure out which tape to use where, this chart provides basic guidance. However, the chart is by no means a definitive answer, as tape can often be successfully applied in places where the chart might suggest otherwise.

Why is an application chart important?

When working with anti-slip tape – especially in professional environments such as businesses, construction projects, or municipal areas – it is crucial to choose the right type of tape for the correct surface. Incorrect selection can lead to reduced durability, decreased safety, or increased maintenance costs. Our application chart provides a clear overview and guidance to help you make the right choice the first time.

Understanding R-classifications: R10, R11, R12, R13

The chart introduces concepts such as R10, R11, R12, and R13 – which describe the level of slip resistance according to the standard.

• R10: Less slip-resistant surface – e.g., office and walkway zones. And for places where people walk barefoot.

• R11/R12: Medium level – typically for areas with moderate traffic and some moisture.

• R13: Highest level – for heavily trafficked environments or so-called "wet" areas (e.g., industrial floors, outdoor areas, stairs).
  By using our chart, you can quickly identify which R-class you should choose depending on the environment and load.

How to use the chart

1. Identify your surface: Is it concrete, epoxy, tiles, metal or wood?

2. Assess traffic and load: Is it light foot traffic, heavy machine traffic, outdoor environment or stairs?

3. Find the R-class in the chart that matches your requirements.

4. Choose the tape that suits both the material and the R-classification – and remember that correct installation is at least as important as the choice of tape.

5. Do you have an unusual surface or conditions? Contact us – we are happy to advise and adapt the solution to your specific task.
