Walker Textures
Traction is an all-glass flooring solution, using no coatings, paints or appliqués susceptible to chipping or flaking off. The slip resistant properties of Traction glass are entirely derived through acid etching, whereby portions of the glass surface are removed to varying depths by a controlled process. The result is attractive and durable anti-slip surfaces, characterised by striking designs. The unique combination of opacity and translucency provides for full privacy, while still allowing for maximum circulation of light between floors.

Glass Pattern 406  Traction glass provides a high slip resistant coefficient based on two recognized test methods. The following data has been tested and reported by the Tile Council of North America, an independent product testing facility: ANSI/NFSI B101.1: ”Test Method for Measuring wet SCOF of common Hard-Surface Floor Materials” Static Coefficient of Friction (SCOF) – Wet Conditions Pattern 406: 0.68 ASTM C1028: “Standard Test Method for Determining the Static Coefficient of Friction of Ceramic Tile and Other Like Surfaces by the Horizontal Dynamometer Pull-Meter Method” Static Coefficient of Friction Pattern 406 Dry: 0.76 Wet: 0.60 Pattern 407 Dry: 0.74 Wet: 0.60 Product Specifications for Acid-etched Anti-slip glass Etching: Two finishes on one surface (Opaque & Satin) Colors: Clear and ultra-clear Thicknesses: 6 mm to 12 mm Dimensions: 96’’ x 130’’or 84’’ x 130’’ Walker Textures Traction glass provides a high slip resistant coefficient based on two recognized test methods namely: ANSI/NFSI B101.1 and ASTM C1028. The tests were conducted by an independent testing facility, the Tile Council of North America. “Glass flooring is one of the fastest growing application segments in the industry. The durability of our acid-etched surface is unmatched by other processes. We are very excited to launch our first patterns in a line-up that will surely expand…” says Ross Christie, V-P Sales & Marketing The Traction line will be offered in clear and low iron glass in thicknesses from 6 mm to 12 mm in standard size of 96’’ x 130’’.
