LRV values available to aid compliance with DDA
Marlings Ltd now has Light Reflectance Values (LRVs) available for all its carpets. This will help specifiers and flooring contractors conform to the requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) guidance in Building Regulations Part M. This recommends that adjacent critical surfaces and features have a visual contrast difference of 30 LRV points.
We are working in partnership with NCS Colour Centre to establish the LRVs of our carpets. NCS Colour Centre is licensed to use the international colour system (ICS), enabling clear communication and accurate measurement of colour. Tests are carried out in accordance with BS8493:2008 Light Reflectance Value method of test.
To request the LRV value for a Marlings carpet, please get in touch.
