  • Spa areas
  • Bathrooms
  • Exterior stairs
  • Garden pathways
  • Commercial kitchens where relevant
  • Wet transition areas

Performance depends on:

  • Limestone type
  • Surface finish
  • Wet or dry use
  • Surface wear
  • Cleaning
  • Slope
  • Sealer
  • Barefoot or footwear traffic
  • Local standards

A textured appearance does not automatically prove compliance with a required slip classification.

Hotel Traffic and Abrasion

High-traffic areas may include:

  • Main lobbies
  • Restaurants
  • Event spaces
  • Corridors
  • Entrance plazas
  • Pool decks
  • Public stairs

The project should consider:
