We share our certifications and testing data to provide partners and customers with the transparent resources needed to make informed decisions about investments and product choices.
CERTIFIED AUTISM RESOURCE
We believe in making aquatic facilities safe and beautiful for all people regardless of age or ability. In alignment with our mission and core values, Life Floor is certified by IBCCES as a Certified Autism Resource. Our products meet one or more Areas of Autism Competency and can be used at Certified Autism Centers worldwide.
NSF/ANSI/CAN STANDARD 50
Understanding the danger that concrete and other surfaces can pose in these aquatic environments, NSF/ANSI/CAN 50:26 recommends that all splash pads feature certified safety surfacing.
Life Floor is the first splash pad surface certified by NSF/ANSI/CAN 50.
Splash Pads are Playgrounds with Water
As part of the certification process, our tiles have been third-party tested to demonstrate slip-resistance and impact cushioning for improved safety. They have also shown aquatic durability after passing tests for UV and chemical resistance, impermeability, and cleanability.
NSF/ANSI/CAN 50 concluded that for a surface to meet an appropriate standard for splash pad surfacing, it must fulfill six unique performance-based requirements. Life Floor is certified to all six requirements:
