Abstract: The article provides an analysis of the fire properties of floor coverings in order to determine the most fireproof material. To achieve this goal, we determined their fire hazard characteristics: oxygen index, combustibility, degree of toxicity, flammability and smoke generating ability. Based on the data presented in the article, it can be concluded that for the most part the materials we are considering are fire hazardous materials, but among them there are instances that have fireproof properties. These materials include quartz vinyl tiles and commercial linoleum. The article also provides an analysis of the methods of fire protection of the coatings we are considering, from which we can conclude that at the moment there is no universal means of reducing the fire-hazardous properties of floor coverings.

Keywords: floor coverings, degree of toxicity acid index, flammability, flammability.
