It is obvious that stronger magnets are to be used for the same magnetic force effect as with the exclusive use of magnets. As a result, the number of required magnets can be minimized.
  • the upper side or the underside is automatically "oriented" by the magnetic attraction of at least two inventive floor and / or wall covering elements.
