This might happen to anyone. Go upstairs with a bottle of glass in your hand…

… You stumble and the bottle falls down …

This is what happens when the bottle hits the ground: an overview of damage to various surfaces.

k-stairs surface

The businessline surface is absolutely tear-resistant and shockproof. The impact of a falling bottle leads just to a little unevenness how you know it from massive wood. The covering stays closed and secure.

Block steps made out of CPL-/HPL-surfaces

CPL-/HPL-surfaces distinguish through their hardness. But by an impact of a hard object the surface might break and is destroyed permanatly. The damage is irreversible. After a time there will be dirty edges and moisture will penetrade.

Tile steps with joints

Tiles are convey a cool optic and haptic. By an impact of a glass bottle onto the hard surface the tiles will shatter and generate sharp edges. There must follow an elaborate exchange of the destroyed tile.

Vinyl steps with aluminium profile

Vinyl steps made out of planks will have butt joints in front and by the side of the planks. Will fall a bottle onto the steps and hit a joint this might open a bit and
so water or moisture will lead to upcoming edges. Such detachments will increase the risk of falling.
