Full definition
Rubber or vinyl flooring with a regular pattern of raised circular discs (coins) on the surface, providing anti-slip traction with a cleaner, more professional appearance than aggressive industrial patterns like diamond plate. Coin diameter: typically 15-25 mm. Coin height: 0.8-2 mm above the base surface. The rounded coins provide multi-directional slip resistance (COF typically 0.5-0.7) while being easier to clean than deep-textured patterns — a mop or auto-scrubber glides over the smooth coins without catching. Material: SBR rubber (durable, economical), EPDM rubber (color-stable, UV-resistant), vinyl/PVC (widest color range, most economical), or recycled rubber. Thickness: 2-4 mm (vinyl), 3-8 mm (rubber). Colors: black, gray, beige, blue, brown, terra cotta — wider range in vinyl than rubber. Applications: commercial buildings (lobbies, corridors, elevators), hospitals and healthcare facilities, retail stores, automotive showrooms, offices, gyms, and any environment where aesthetics and anti-slip safety are both important. The coin pattern has become iconic in premium commercial and automotive settings. Installation: adhesive-bonded rolls or loose-laid mats. Per ASTM F1344 (rubber tile), ASTM D2047 (slip resistance).
