Risk Description

On the basis of a functionality test (in shoes, socks and bare feet), the individual layers of the mat slide on each other, causing the upper foil to twist, which represents an undesired slip. Considering the character and design of the product and the age limit for its use (>12 months), the risk of injury as a result of a slip and subsequent fall can not be excluded while using the product.
