Non Slip Floor Coatings - Non Slip Paint
Slippage on wet floors can take a fraction of a second, while the consequences could last a life time. Broken bones and litigation are some of the possible outcomes. Reducing the risk of slip injury is a critical safety aspect to be considered.
Five of the most common reasons why you are currently on our website?
When it comes to reducing slip injury - we have specialist knowledge.
It's a fact and the law that you have a duty of care to show a certain level of due diligence when it comes to reducing the chance of slip injury. One critical element is to make sure you are not putting any personal at high risk especially when the floor is wet.

Tiled floors cause the majority of slip issues. Our non / anti slip treatment creates micro suction cups under the surface. This is not an ugly coating or a paint with bits in, It's a clear liquid that looks like water being poured over the surface and best of all it doesn't visibly alter the tile but when the tile becomes wet, the water is squeezed out from the pressure of a foot and the suction cups act like a vacuum on the sole of the shoe creating a grip that feels as safe in the wet as in the dry. It's the perfect application for any tiled area. This product is suitable for the following floor types: Ceramic • Porcelain • Concrete • Terrazzo • Quarry • Marble • Enamell
Invisible anti-slip protection for metal bathtubs - within 5 minutes your bath can feel as safe in wet as in the dry.

What it does: Creates an invisible microscopic pattern in the surface. How it works: Chemical reacts with the silica in the enamel and makes a vacuum effect under the surface - when wet these suction cups act as a vacuum sucking the foot to the floor.
This simple process will increase the slip resistance to reduce the chance of slip injury and will typically last for up to 3 years. The surface can be put back into use immediately. Average application time is 10 minutes per bath from start to finish. Order Direct 0845 643 1317: (Supplied in 100 ml bottles to cover one UK standard size adult bath tub).

The perfect application for wooden or Laminate areas that could cause a slip issue when wet. Independently tested by Satra it has slip rating of 50 PTV (Pendulum Slip Value) in the wet! well above the 36 PTV required by HSE to show due diligence and will bring the floor in to a "Low Risk for slip potential". Long lasting, low odour & colourless it has also been tested to: BS7976-2 standard, meeting the H&S guidelines introduced to ensure floors have a safe level of slip resistance, where there is the risk of water spillage. Suitable for: Bars • Restaurants • School Halls • Shops

This is an application that will take away the slipperiness by adding a durable anti slip coating. Our anti slip coatings come in three different grades depending on the slip issue. Polish without micro girt - Polish encapsulating micro grit or a water based resin that encapsulates micro grit. These anti -slip coatings will significantly increase the surface friction to meet and exceed the HSE Minimum requirement.
Applications for anti-slip floor paints are suitable for: Laminates • Warehouse Floors • Factory Floors • Lino • VCT • Wood • Decking

This Pendulum test can be used to accurately test the slip potential on clean, dry or contaminated floors and works in wet conditions as it generates a similar fluid film between the floor and the slider. The Health & Safety Executive (HSE) prefer this method of testing as it is portable and works in the conditions that slip accidents happen.
We are able to provide Pendulum Slip Testing for the following floor types: Granite • Slate • Marble • Limestone • Terrazzo • Quarry Tiles • Porcelain Ceramics • Concrete • Wood • Decking • Vinyl • VCT • Laminates
