The Kleen-Tile modular tile system revolutionizes wet area safety, offering highest anti-slip classification DIN 51097 A+B+C for barefoot traffic. Vinyl tiles 30.4 x 30.4 cm with 3D construction ensuring water drainage provide ideal solution for pools, saunas, showers and changing rooms.
Why Kleen-Tile modular tiles are the best choice?
Most accidents in pool facilities are falls on wet floors. Kleen-Tile eliminates this hazard through certified grip at the highest level. DIN 51097 A+B+C classification means slip angle above 26 degrees according to DIN EN 13451/15288-1 standard – exceeding traditional ceramic tiles.
Intelligent 3D construction actively drains water from foot contact surface. Raised elements create drainage channel network through which water immediately flows away. Soft vinyl structure absorbs impacts and reduces injury risk during falls.
Durability confirmed by 3-year warranty or 3 million wheel passes guarantee. Product withstands extreme traffic loads in water parks and hotels. Resistance to pool chemicals, UV and temperatures from -20°C to +70°C ensures years of operation.
Where to use Kleen-Tile pool tiles?
Professional facilities: water parks, municipal pools, hotels with spa areas, fitness clubs. Pool edges, communication paths, water entry zones, water slide platforms. Modular construction adapts to unusual shapes.
Private applications: home saunas, steam baths, shower zones, private pool edges. Modular system enables self-installation, while finishing edges ensure professional appearance.

Kleen-Tile material and technology
Vinyl remains pleasantly soft and warm for bare feet. Doesn't absorb moisture, doesn't swell or deform. Flexibility translates to impact absorption.
3D construction is patented technology combining safety with functionality. Raised geometric elements create drainage channels preventing aquaplaning. Modular connection system without adhesives – each tile has protrusions fitting into adjacent module recesses.
Kleen-Tile maintenance
Tiles can be washed with water jets up to 150 bars pressure or steam cleaned up to 100°C, disinfecting the surface. Open 3D construction means dirt flows away with drainage channels.
Exceptional chemical resistance – chlorine, hydrogen peroxide, acids and alkalis don't cause discoloration. Regular cleaning: daily water rinsing, weekly brushing. No special maintenance treatments required.
Kleen-Tile certificates and standards
Fire rating EN 13501-1 class Bfl-s1 – very low flammability and minimal smoke emission. EN ISO 11925-2 and EN ISO 9239-1 standards confirm flame spread resistance.
Anti-slip classification DIN 51097 A+B+C and DIN EN 13451/15288-1 (26°) – highest slip protection level. ISO 16000-9 class A+ – minimal volatile organic compound emissions. Certificates issued by independent EU laboratories.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does Kleen-Tile installation take and do I need specialized tools?
Installing Kleen-Tile requires no specialized tools or construction skills. The clip-together modular system works like a puzzle – simply clip successive elements together, creating a uniform surface. An average person can cover approximately 10-15 m² of surface area in one hour. You don't need adhesives, tapes, levels or cutting devices – any trimming can be done with a regular utility knife. If you ordered optional edges and ramps, their installation is also extremely simple and requires no additional time. This is an ideal solution for home pool owners who want to save on construction crew labor costs.
Can Kleen-Tile be installed on existing ceramic flooring?
Yes, Kleen-Tile can be laid directly on existing ceramic, concrete or other hard surfaces, provided they are relatively level and free from significant damage. The modular system doesn't require adhesion to the substrate – tiles hold together through the built-in clip mechanism, and their own weight ensures stability. This is an excellent solution for quick modernization of existing pool facilities without the need for costly breaking and removing old flooring. If the substrate has larger irregularities, leveling with self-leveling compound is recommended before laying tiles.
Is Kleen-Tile suitable for Finnish saunas and steam rooms?
Absolutely yes. Kleen-Tile was designed for use in extreme humidity and temperature conditions. Resistance to temperatures up to plus 70°C means tiles perform excellently in Finnish saunas, steam baths and other high-temperature rooms. Vinyl material doesn't deform, crack or lose anti-slip properties under hot steam or high temperature influence. Quite the contrary – at higher temperatures, vinyl becomes slightly more flexible, which additionally enhances comfort for bare feet. 3D drainage effectively drains condensate and water, preventing puddle accumulation on the surface.
How does Kleen-Tile compare to ceramic tiles in terms of safety?
Kleen-Tile significantly exceeds traditional ceramic tiles in wet condition safety. While standard ceramic tiles achieve anti-slip class R10 or R11 in dry conditions, in water contact their grip dramatically decreases, often not exceeding class A or B for bare feet. Kleen-Tile has DIN 51097 A+B+C certification, meaning the highest possible anti-slip class for wet surfaces and bare feet. Additionally, the soft, flexible vinyl structure absorbs impacts in case of falls, minimizing serious injury risk, while hard ceramics can lead to fractures and wounds. 3D construction with drainage actively drains water, while ceramic tiles often retain a thin water layer causing aquaplaning effect.
Can I replace just a damaged tile without dismantling the entire surface?
This is one of the greatest advantages of the Kleen-Tile modular system. Unlike glued mats or ceramics, where replacing a damaged fragment often requires dismantling a significant portion of the surface, with Kleen-Tile you simply unclip the damaged tile and clip a new one in its place. The entire process takes literally a few seconds and requires no tools. Therefore, we recommend purchasing a few spare modules in the color matching your installation – it's a small cost that in the future can save much time and money on repairs. This capability is particularly appreciated by commercial facility operators, where quick repair without operational downtime has crucial business significance.
Kleen-Tile is a modular tile system combining European quality, certified safety and ease of use. Whether you're looking for a solution for a commercial pool facility or planning to secure a private wellness zone, Kleen-Tile offers optimal quality-to-price ratio with minimal maintenance requirements. Choose a proven solution that protects users and serves for years.
