On April 11, 2023, the National Floor Safety Institute requested that the Commission initiate rulemaking to mandate testing and labeling regarding the slip resistance (traction) of commercial and residential grade floor coverings, floor coatings and treatments, residential and commercial floor cleaning agents, and consumer footwear. CPSC docketed the petition and, on January 22, 2024, published a Federal Register notice seeking comments on the petition. The comment period closes on April 22, 2024, after which CPSC staff will prepare a briefing package for the Commission including a recommendation whether to grant, deny, or defer action on the petition.
