Where are the reducer profiles to be used?
The reducer profiles will work perfectly for areas where two types of flooring meet at different heights, such as tiles and wood. This makes the transition smooth and eliminates tripping hazards.

Transition profiles serve the purpose of joining two flooring surfaces that come in exactly the same height, like tiles to tiles or wood to wood. They offer a neat and seamless appearance.
