What is the difference between standard Polysafe Hydro and Hydro Evolve?

Standard Hydro focuses entirely on industrial-grade non-slip performance, which often leaves dark particles visible on the surface. Hydro Evolve uses a carborundum-free technology with clear aggregates and a multi-chip design. This gives the floor a much cleaner, softer appearance, making it perfect for spaces where you want a homely design without sacrificing safety.

The technical specs show a Pendulum Wet Test value of ≥36. Why is this important?

The Pendulum Test is the UK’s legal benchmark tool, officially endorsed by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). It uses a swinging mechanical arm to simulate a human heel slipping on a wet floor. A score of 36 or above proves that the flooring officially offers a "Low Slip Potential" in wet conditions, which legally protects commercial property owners from accident claims.

What does the R10 rating mean for footwear traffic?

The "R" scale runs from R9 to R13 and tests how slip-resistant a floor is for people wearing shoes. An R10 rating combined with the product's textured surface ensures reliable traction for staff, caretakers, or guests walking through wet environments with footwear.

What does the Class B Barefoot Rating mean?

Barefoot performance is tested on a wet, soapy ramp and classified from Class A (lowest) to Class C (highest). Hydro Evolve achieves a Class B rating, which provides the precise level of underfoot traction needed for standard wet rooms, changing areas, and communal shower facilities.
