Anti-Slip Flooring Solutions – Choosing the Best
Five considerations
Employees and visitors, guests and patients, students and seniors—there are so many segments of the population that can benefit from anti-slip flooring solutions. Environments ranging from schools to shipyards and oil rigs to office buildings offer unique challenges for the amount and type of foot traffic and the conditions that warrant non-slip flooring. Consider the options and make comparisons prior to deciding.
Choices Between Coatings or Other Options
Sure-Foot selected a focus on anti-slip flooring solutions such as tape, treads and tiles instead of coatings for a number of reasons. The proper application of a coating requires an experienced installer who is going to take the time necessary to prepare the surface area, a factor that cannot be controlled once product leaves the warehouse. Inadequate preparation leads to a high degree of product failure. In addition, many of these coatings contain chemicals that are considered hazardous.
Well Rounded Solutions Portfolio
No two flooring situations are alike and there isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution that will supply the right type of anti-slip protection required in different circumstances. Sure-Foot offers a well-rounded portfolio of anti-slip tapes, fiberglass step covers, panels; rubber, vinyl and metal stair treads and so on. Other companies often focus on a single line, such as tape, which might not supply the best, safest option for a given environment. A wide-ranging portfolio offers a greater chance of finding the right solution for a durable, long-lasting safe pathway, floor or surface.
Comply with Safety Regulations
The benefits of a broad portfolio non-slip flooring solutions are amplified when considering the safety regulations for different industries. Companies or municipalities might need a variety of options to comply with building codes. For example, there are situations that require a glow-in-the-dark edge on a step, or an anti-slip flooring installation in certain areas of a manufacturing plant. A single solution source that supplies anti-slip tape alone will not be able to cover the variety of safety applications that a broad portfolio can provide.
