Anti-slip Sheeting and Stair Covers for Schools

PREVENT  SLIP ACCIDENTS AT SCHOOL

The risk of slipping can be greatly reduced in schools. Because of the high footfall and impact applied to the stairwells and walkway areas, it's clear that a permanent slip-resistant solution is needed. Use  our anti-slip stair tread covers and flat sheeting to simply retrofit onto the existing surfaces.

How did we help?

The existing walkways and chequer-plated steps were unsafe for the foot traffic in these premises.  Wet chequer plate contributes to slip accidents and so "Cladding", a superior overlay product from GripClad, offered a long-term risk-free solution.

For visually impaired students and teachers, all step edges and nosing edges have contrasting colour edges to define the step edge, increasing safety.

We solved the problem?

The school wanted a high wear-resistant solution instead of a short-term coating method, and it must provide a good level of slip resistance. GripClad's stair nosing solution was the obvious choice because they were easy to install over existing stairs, steps and walkways. A retrofit product that offers long-term peace of mind and is virtually maintenance-free was the real answer.

  • Four S Pendulum Value Potential for Slip
  • Above 65 Extremely Low
  • 35 to 65 Low
  • 25 to 65 Moderate
  • 25 and Below High

Our GRP products are tested with a recorded value of 65 or above for dry conditions. Even when wet conditions have been introduced the products still performed to a very high standard.

Totally resistant to wear and tear and constant impact, and is aesthetically pleasing. The perfect and practical solution on educational premises.

Schools have a high risk potential for slip accidents

So we make them safe.

The Result?

Gripclad's GRP Pre-formed Anti-slip overlay stair tread covers were easy to install, together with anti-slip sheeting to chequer plated walkways. A straightforward cost effective solution for the long term at these type of premises that see very high footfall traffic.
