Swimmers safe from slips
26 March 2014
Heronrib barefoot matting from Plastic Extruders is being used to keep the local swimming and water polo teams safe from slipping accidents at the natatorium in Glyfada, part of the Athletic Nautical Club of Glyfada, Athens, Greece.
Recommended by Greek flooring Plastex distributor Beredimas Safety Floors, Heronrib matting has been laid in the locker rooms and the hallway just outside the shower area to protect users walking barefoot on the wet and, hence, slippery, marble flooring.
Heronrib has a "C” Classification for slip resistance surface under DIN 51097 – the highest rating, and an open grid, two layer construction with channelled underbars, which guarantees a dry surface is maintained even in the most trafficked wet areas. Its non-porous PVC sections and impregnated anti-microbial and anti-fungal additives ensure permanent barefoot hygiene.
