High traction flooring laminate

摘要

The present invention relates to a laminate, preferably a flooring laminate suitable for use wherever traction is needed or desired, whether due to natural or man-made conditions either indoors or outdoors. The laminate can be applied over existing flooring. The laminate includes a base layer and a traction layer including a grit material dispersed on a polymer. The base layer comprises a cured rubber blend which has been granulated to a predetermined size and subsequently rebonded with a polymeric base adhesive composition. At least some portion of the grit material of the traction layer protrudes from the polymeric composition to provide anti-slip properties.
