Enhancing safety on floor surfaces

 In the 1960s, a specialised treatment was developed for Boeing Air Industries to prevent aircraft from skidding on runways. This innovation laid the foundation for Slipstop's anti-slip treatment, which has been professionally applied and continuously refined for over 40 years. By addressing slip hazards effectively, this treatment has become a trusted solution across multiple industries.

A versatile solution for hard surfaces

Slipstop's treatment is designed to reduce slipperiness on a wide range of hard surfaces. These include ceramic, vitrified, porcelain, mosaic, and quarry tiles; terrazzo; marble; granite; limestone; travertine; reconstituted stone; and concrete. The treatment works by modifying the surface at a microscopic level, enhancing grip without altering the visible appearance. This makes it ideal for both new and existing flooring in high-traffic areas.

Industry-wide applications

The need for slip prevention extends across numerous sectors, and Slipstop's treatment has been successfully implemented in various industries.

• Hospitality & retail: Hotels, restaurants, and shopping centers see high foot traffic, increasing the risk of slip accidents, especially in areas prone to spills. Slipstop ensures floors remain safe for both employees and visitors.

• Healthcare: Hospitals and clinics require safe, hygienic environments for patients, staff, and visitors. Slipstop's treatment helps reduce accident risks without compromising cleanliness.

• Construction & industrial sites: Sites with hard concrete floors and exposure to water, oil, or other contaminants need anti-slip solutions to protect workers and ensure compliance with safety regulations.

• Cruise & marine: Slip hazards on ships and ports can be particularly dangerous due to movement and exposure to wet conditions. Slipstop provides a reliable solution for marine environments.

• Education & sports facilities: Schools, gyms, and stadiums require durable flooring that remains safe under heavy use and varying conditions.

Long-lasting protection and easy application

Slipstop's anti-slip treatment is designed for longevity, with a single application lasting up to five years. The application process is straightforward and does not require floor closures for extended periods, making it ideal for busy environments. Once applied, the treatment becomes an integral part of the surface, maintaining its effectiveness in both wet and dry conditions.

Additionally, Slipstop's solution is environmentally friendly and does not introduce harmful coatings or residues. Unlike temporary anti-slip coatings that wear off quickly, this treatment is a permanent modification to the surface, requiring minimal maintenance.

Enhancing safety and compliance

Slip-related accidents can result in significant financial and legal repercussions for businesses. By implementing an effective anti-slip treatment, organisations can proactively reduce liability, protect employees and customers, and meet safety standards. Many industries have specific regulations regarding slip resistance, and Slipstop's treatment helps ensure compliance with international safety guidelines.

Whether in a commercial, industrial, or public setting, this treatment offers peace of mind by significantly reducing the risk of slips and falls.
