Abstract

The invention provides an embossed synthetic slip-resistant floor-covering material comprising a decorative layer which is covered by a substantially transparent wear coat which comprises two or more wear layers of a transparent synthetic material which comprise at least one upper wear layer of a transparent synthetic material comprising one or more embedded non-slip particles and at least one lower wear layer of a transparent synthetic material which contains at least part of the one or more embedded non-slip particles; and a method of preparing a synthetic floor-covering material which method comprises the steps of: Providing a decorative layer; Applying at least one lower layer of transparent synthetic material which is substantially free from non-slip particles to the decorative layer; Applying at least one upper layer of transparent synthetic material to the at least one lower layer of transparent synthetic material wherein the at least one upper layer of transparent synthetic material comprises one or more non-slip particles; and Embossing the floor covering to provide a non-slip texture to the floor covering such that of synthetic material to ensure that the one or more biodegradable polymeric particles are incorporated into the layer of synthetic material.
