Anti Slip
Treatment Features |
|
The long lasting
solution to the problem of dangerous slippery when
wet hard floor tiles. |
|
Increases co-efficient
of friction on floor surfaces to meet and exceed
HSE minimum requirements of the surface when wet. |
|
Lasts for years, not
a coating that will wear off. |
|
Suitable for stone
surfaces including ceramic, quarry tile, terrazzo,
granite, marble, concrete, slate, porcelain etc. |
|
Only treatment
system in the world available in custom formulations
for different floor surfaces. |
|
Very effective in
areas susceptible to water spills or accumulation. |
|
Routine maintenance
and cleaning of the floor to remove dirt, grease,
oil and foreign substances is required in order
to maintain the lifespan the anti slip properties. |

How anti slip treatment
works. |
|
No Skidding Treatment
helps prevent slip and fall accidents by creating
an invisible thread on the floor surfaces and significantly
increases the Coefficient of Friction (COF) |
|
Our treatment is
carefully formulated to dissolve a controlled amount
of silica so as to create thousands of minute,
shallow indentations in the surface. The profile
is so subtle it cannot be seen or felt, Because
the profile sits below the level of surface it
does not affect the floor when you cleaning it. |
|
When the surface
is wet with water these shallow indentations fill,
when you stand on the wet surface & your foot
starts to slide, the water is squeezed out of the
indentations turning them into thousands of suction
cups that stops your foot from slipping. |

A Static
anti-slip coefficient of friction of .50 and
above is considered a safe
walkway surface with a dry condition. A reading
below .50 is considered an unsafe walkway surface.
The coefficient of friction is reduced
when an untreated flat hard mineral walkway
is subjected to a wetting agent.
A walkway surface treated with Anti Slip
is actually safer
in a wet condition than a dry untreated
surface |
|
Floor slipperiness
is tested before and after treatment to ensure it meets
the standards in the slip risk classification above by
using the ASTM digital slip test apparatus.
