○Why do we need new colors for non-slip?
Until now, AFOLA’s non-slip products had focused on the gray color preferred by architects, and were not compatible with brown flooring. As part of our daily design promotion activities, we interviewed architects and designers, and after careful consideration, we decided to add new colors: EB (Ebony) and SD (Sand).

○Color variations for corner guards
Thanks to recent technological improvements, non-combustible decorative boards and wallpapers with the realistic texture of concrete, mortar, slate, etc. are being released one after another. AFOLA, which aims to harmonize with architectural spaces that change with the times, has added new colors to the popular corner guard series Verta E.
Add VGY (vibration gray).
Additionally, we will simultaneously release VCP (Vibration
Champagne), which is compatible with woven cloth and ivory wallpaper. -VTE125- From left: VBK, VGY (NEW), VSV, VBR, VCP (NEW)

○Importance of protruding corner parts
When installing non-slip at the corner of a staircase, it is common to cut the material at a 45 degree angle and butt it together, but this is extremely dangerous as the corner becomes sharp. In addition, the need for protruding corner parts has increased in recent years due to the increased labor involved in construction and the decreasing number of craftsmen who can perform accurate construction.
In light of this situation, AFOLA has launched the popular non-slip series Previo T and Previo R.
In response, 13 types of protruding corner parts will be released at the same time.
Extruded corner parts for Previo T and Previo R
