Purpose
The classification links floor coverings to practical areas of use and intensity of use.
Not every flooring type
Concrete, ceramic tile, wood and resin systems rely on other product and project standards.
Current status
ISO lists ISO 10874:2009 as the published standard and also lists a committee draft for a future revision.
Use current product documents
For procurement, verify the exact classification claimed by the current product and the current edition of applicable standards.
Commercial flooring decisions depend on the actual substrate, moisture conditions, traffic, cleaning regime, accessibility requirements, fire/building rules, manufacturer instructions and local code. This site is for planning and comparison, not installation instructions.
