If you’re installing flooring on stairs, we’ll provide all the necessary compliance documents to meet New Zealand Building Code requirements.
Here are the typical slip ratings for our timber floor coatings:
Semi-gloss: P1
Low sheen: P2
Matt: P3
Oiled finish: P2
For stairs that may become wet, the NZ Building Code requires a slip rating of P3 or higher (equivalent to a slip resistance value of 0.40+).
We recommend confirming the required slip rating with your architect or builder, especially for stair installations.
