LUXURY VINYL TILES WITH SUSTAINABLE WET SLIP RESISTANCE
7/28/2019 Expona Control Brochure 2013
2/21
Welcome to the world o Expona Control - a oorcovering o which you will not have
experienced beore - one o pure innovation and clear understanding o the commercial industry.
Polyor have taken the great opportunity o using high-design aesthetics with sustainable
perormance, by marrying two key areas; luxury vinyl tiles (LVT) & saety ooring, into one
exceptional product.
With a combined history o over 50 years o expertise and creativity in the manuacturing
o these product types, we continuously learn rom our own experiences and that o our
customers, to be able to introduce a brand new ooring concept.
3
Design is critical to all commercial interiors and with that comes a responsibility to its users.
This shared commitment allows us to oer beautiul and authentic replications o natural materials
with the added benet o underoot saety and security, resulting in a more assured condence.
Expona Control eatures unobtrusive aluminium oxide particles throughout the wear layer
to create a uniquely honest decoration that ensures sustainable wet slip resistance in heavy
commercial areas, in ull compliance with HSE Guidelines.
Within this brochure we will explain how Expona Control works, touch on the secrets o manuacture
and most importantly conrm how and where it can be used to stunning creative eect.

Once Expona Control is installed and maintained correctly, the slip resistance will tend to improve with age. Over time, as the top
layer wears, aggregate will be retained and new will be revealed, to continue the job o imparting the required perormance, gaining
value or years to come.
Conversely, products being s old as saety oors which have very thin coatings o aggregate applied or eature a slightly roughersurace emboss may pass an ex-actory ramp test but only oer short term slip resistance which will reduce ater installation and wear.
Commercial saety oors oering sustainable wet slip resistance must meet the European Saety Flooring Standard o EN 13845,
with the 50,000 cycles abrasion test as well as achieving 36 and above on the pendulum wet test.
Expona Control rerames this practice as something more than just commerce, showing a diligence in construction
to ensure these key criteria are met.
Where can Expona Control be used?
Expona Control is developed or use in public areas where there
is a risk o spillage or temporary surace water that could make
the oor unsae without the necessary riction. These i nclude:
Buildings with direct access to outside; areas open to rainwater
which can be trafcked inside, by eet, luggage, pushchairs,
wheelchairs etc. This is a common issue within the retail, leisure,
ofce, education and healthcare sectors.
Other areas include:
Bar & restaurant servery and dining areas
Hair salons
Ofce kitchens and rereshment areas
Healthcare break out acilities
Education canteens
Supermarkets, convenience and general storesPublic bathrooms
For urther clarication on where the product can be used, contact Polyfor.
It is worth noting that Expona Control neednt necessarily
be installed throughout a building, but can be specied or
particular areas o potential risk. A good example is a multi-
departmental store where Expona Control is selected or main
entrance points plus areas such as drink serveries, ood halls
and public bathrooms; where liquids may be present. Standard
Polyor luxury vinyl tiles can then be specied or low risk 'dry
slip' areas, to ensure the continuity o the interior and oor
design scheme.
For areas with constant surace water such as wet-rooms and
interior pool-side locations, see the Polysae Hydro products.
Form vs Function
Expona Controls prime unction is to oer sustainable
slip resistance with a palette o authentic & natural
designs. The relationship between orm and purpose
design and saety is symbiotic. We recognise the
importance o both areas, blending them to help solve
a problem.
Previous experience in use is a strong selection criteria
and one o the Health & Saety Executives own
recommendations. On this basis and with the history
o millions o square metres o Polyor saety ooring
installed, Expona Control works towards this goal with
intelligence, innovation and i ntegrity.

WHAT IS EXPONA CONTROL? SAFETY FLOORINGYOU CAN TRUST

Expona Control is a culmination o around 30 years o Polyor experience
in the manuacturing o saety oors. Todays oer o unrivalled collections
provides an exceptional level o perormance and quality which cater or a
wide range o commercial and residential applications.
Saety ooring is increasingly specied to provide underoot security
or its users; be it customers, employees, students, patients, the general
public and homeowners. Polyor is unswerving in its commitment to
maintaining the level o slip resistance throughout the guaranteed lie o
the product. Expona Control perectly exhibits our continued ocus and is
a demonstration o the desire to service such market demands.
You will already know o Polyors saety ooring collections under the
market leading Polysae brand. In terms o sustainable slip resistance and
technical dominance Expona Control achieves the same outstanding
results. However, as this is the rst collection o sustainable slip resistant
LVTs in the market, we have positioned this under the Expona brand a
well known and respected collection o premium luxury vinyl tiles.
Polyor LVTs are regularly selected or their high-design aesthetics and
heavy commercial suitability across all main sectors, including retail, leisure,
ofce, education and healthcare as well as the key housing market. Each o
the vinyl tiles and planks are meticulously manuactured to eature a robust
and hardwearing composition supported by a simple cleaning regime.
Mirroring the undoubted beauty o wood, stone and concrete, Expona
Control brings with it the added dimension o sustainable wet slip
resistance, meaning it can be condently chosen or areas where there are
potential risks o spillages and the transportation o moisture rom outside.
Achieving 36 and above on the Pendulum wet test and a surace
roughness o 20 microns and above means Expona Control is ully HSE
compliant, receiving a low slip risk classication and conorming to slip
resistant guidelines. Aligned with the Polysae collections, Expona Control
ully conorms with EN 13845, meaning the product is ully slip resistant in
areas where surace water may be present.
Creativity and practicality have huge roles to play in the
development process, allowing us to impose a meaningul
purpose to the collection. The introduction o Expona Control
acilitates the importance o being able to work alongsideother Polyor LVT or saety oor ranges, so the building can be
assessed and planned in its entirety.
Put simply, slip resistance is achieved by increasing the riction between the oot and the oor. This traction increase is due to
the inclusion o aggregate within the composition o Expona Control. These particles are not simply sprinkled onto the top as
a coating that will wear o ater a short time in use. Instead, aggregates are incorporated within the wear layer o each tile and
plank to ensure sustainable slip perormance. This enhanced wear layer creates a rougher, harder riction surace to bite i nto
the sole o the ootwear, to create the necessary durability and underoot saety. The slip resistant properties are urther brought
to lie in areas where moisture is trafcked rom outside, such as retail stores which lead directly onto the high street. This is a
crucial demand or many buildings, across all sectors, meaning Expona Control reduces the risk o slip unlike other oor nishes
which may prohibit their specication and use.

GROUTING STRIPS | MARQUETRY STRIPS | FEATURE STRIPS
As pioneers in the development o luxury vinyl tiles and saety oors, we understand the criteria o orm and unctionality.
An additional key benet o Expona Control is the option o creating bespoke oor designs, tailored to your own vision or
corporate style.
Oering a more gurative approach to that o traditional saety ooring, inlay strips can be utilised to create a more intricate
shape or to accentuate a eature area. Tiles and planks rom the wood and stone collections can also be installed side by side to
delineate rooms, create zonal areas or used simply as a more imaginative detail.
The possible combinations and oor design options promotes Expona Control as a more expandable saety ooring system,
and is an opportunity to create a personalised oor base or a wide array o commercial interiors. Using the structure and
aordances o the tiles, planks and inlay strips, one can enter into a more creative concept to orm a truly bespoke oor
nstallation, whilst retaining the saety aspect at all times.
Unlike standard Polyor luxury vinyl tile collections, we recommend that bespoke waterjet cutting and intricate curved shapes
are not utilised with Expona Control. It is crucial that the sustainable slip resistance is maintained at all times and the inclusion
o such shapes may cause unconventional joins which could lead to unnecessary risks. Also, as the s lip resistant aggregate is
incorporated in the wear layer, reshly cut edges o products laid together may lead to unsquare edges and subsequent gaps.
To discuss specic design oor options or or clarication o what can be achieved, contact Polyor.
Providing an alternative appearance to
Grouting and Marquetry Strips with a bolder

TECHNICAL dETAILSLIP RESISTANCE
RIBA Approved CPD
A RIBA Approved CPD Seminar is available to be presented by a Polyor representative covering the aore-mentioned slip
resistance test methods and to assist in the specication o saety oorcoverings. Contact Polyor or urther inormation.
CE Marking
All ooring sold in Europe must carry the CE mark and show results on mandatory perormance aspects re and slip.
The vast majority o smooth vinyl oors will carry a Dry Slip rating this essentially means that the ooring is sae or use.
For slip resistant ooring, you should look or an ES rating.
Points to consider:
HSE recommends the Pendulum test in conjunction with s urface microroughness meter for real life in-situ results.
All Polyor safety collections adhere to HSE Guidelines, achieving 36+ in the Pendulum wet test with a surface roughness
o Rz 20m.
The slip resistance is assured for the guaranteed life of the product.
RIBA Approved CPD seminar for the specication of safety vinyl oorcoverings is available directly from Polyor representatives.
As with all Polyor saety oor collections, Expona Control is subjected to the rigours o internal testing on the production
line and in our laboratories to ensure they are t to serve their purpose as sustainable saety oors. These actions are ully
backed up by external testing carried out by independent bodies to meet relevant industry standards.
Expona Control retains its aesthetic and perormance characteristics to demonstrate outstanding durability and abrasion
resistance, adhering to the guidelines detailed in EN 13845. It is crucially stated that the oor should suer no ill eects
when tested or abrasion over 50,000 cycles, as in EN 660-2, where a stringent testing procedure is applied involving
constant cycles o abrasion under pressure with the continuous application o grit.
Stain Resistance
As Expona Control is an ideal selection or many interiors across the main commercial sectors, resistance to everyday dirt
and staining will be an i mportant consideration. Areas such as retail and leisure units where dirt and moisture is trafcked
directly rom outside, plus servery, dining and break out points where spillages may occur, mean an easy maintenance oor,
which does not i nhibit the saety aspects, is a crucial requirement. Maintenance and chemical resistance documents are
readily available online or rom Polyor Customer Technical Services, should they be required.
Expona Control not only represents the true distinction o natural materials but also oers guaranteed and sustainable
wet slip resistance, possessing an aspect that urther reveals itsel through its continuous use.
Slip resistance can be a conusing area or specier and client alike. On one hand there is a requirement to speciy ooring that
s sae and t or use, against a background o increasing awareness and litigation in the case o slips and trips. On the other
hand, there is a plethora o test methods to assess the security o oors, various manuacturer claims and competing product to
complicate choice. Add in colour choice, decoration and maintenance and the conusion can multiply.
Polyor would always give the same two key points o advice beore slip resistant ooring is specied.
. Use a reputable manuacturer that can demonstrate previous experience in areas you are working on.
2. Ask or advice the team at Polyor have more experience in this area than any one individual could acquire.
The Customer Technical Support Team is on hand to dispense ree advice please use them.
Slip resistance test methods
Polyor test against a variety o international test methods or slip resistance and the results are published or all to see.
The test methods explained here are the most relevant and commonly used to make precision assessment o oor saety.
RRL Pendulum Co-Ecient o Friction Test
This test method is recommended and preerred by the HSE to assess the dynamic coefcient o riction o a oorcovering,
achieved by swinging a dummy heel over the oor surace (see the below image) to simulate a oot slipping on a wet oor.
A standardised rubber sample is used to represent a standard shoe sole o average slip resistance. Widely used, the greatest
strength o this test is that it can easily be used in-situ, so the slip resistance o the oor can be assessed over its whole lie. Resultsare quoted using a Four S (Slider 96) rubber slider. Whilst oor suraces can be tested in the wet or dry, the results indicated always
quote the wet result as this is the condition in which slipping is likely to occur. Be wary o very high dry results quoted in isolation.
HSE Guidelines call or a oor to give a Pendulum test value o 36 and above in the wet to be classied as a low slip potential.
Expona Control achieves a Pendulum reading in the wet o 36+ which lies within the low slip risk category and this slip resistance is
assured or the guaranteed lie o the product.
Surace Roughness
This test is also avoured by the HSE to be used on-site in conjunction with the Pendulum test and involves measuring the total
surace microroughness o the ooring with a surace roughness meter. A mean value o several peak to valley measurements
s electronically calculated on the surace by tracing a needle over the oor at various points. This measure is elt to be a good
predictor o slip perormance. Expona Control, as with all Polyor saety products exceed Rz 20m, and in accordance with HSE
Guidelines is classed as a product with low slip potential in water-wet pedestrian areas. In order to cope with dierent contaminant
spillages o various process materials, the surace roughness o the ooring must be s ufcient in order to penetrate the squeeze
lms created when there is a presence o wet contaminants between shoe sole and the oor that prevents solid-to-solid contact.
The surace roughness the oor requires is governed by the viscosity level o liquid contaminants in the application area.
The Ramp Test (DIN 51130 & AS/NZ 4586)
This test involves a person in shod oot walking on an inclined ramp, in the presence o an oil contaminant. The resulting level o
degrees the ramp can be inclined beore the operator slips is categorised into appropriate R values running rom R9 up to R13.
This test has been commonly used in Europe, especially in the hard ooring sector. Whilst Polyor quotes results o this test to
AS/NZS 4586, it is believed that the Ramp test can be used to mislead. Firstly, a common misconception is that the R scale runs
rom R1 to R13 with R1 being the most slippery. In act, an R9 rated product is classied as the oor with the least slip resistance.
This allows manuacturers to imply R9 products are sold as specialist, slip resistant suraces. Furthermore, this test is carried out
ex-actory and is not practical to replicate on-site, so gives no reliable measure o perormance and wear over the lie o the oor,as is possible with the Pendulum and surace roughness tests. For instance, a actory applied thin coating or heavy emboss could
be applied to pass the Ramp test but the resistance will usually change signicantly on installation and would wear o in use ater
maintenance regimes have been applied.
The HSE Slips Assessment Tool (SAT)
This is a computer sotware programme developed by the HSE which, in conjunction with a hand-held surace microroughness
meter, can be used in-situ to risk assess the slip potential presented by pedestrian walkway suraces. The sotware operator eeds in
normation on-site such as: the surace roughness readings, amount and causes o oor surace contamination, ootwear used and
the cleaning regime implemented in order to gain a slip risk classication or the oor. These actors are taken into account along
with others detailed in the slip potential model. This simple sotware programme can be downloaded ree o charge, rom
www.hse.gov.uk/slips.
EN 13845
This European Standard specically relates to particle based saety ooring. Whilst this standard covers all aspects o product
quality, it also brings in another measure o slip resistance:
ES all Polyor saety oor products achieve a rating o Enhanced Slip or use with ootwear, as opposed to DS, (meaning Dry
Slip) as stated in the EN 13893 standard.
