ECONOMICAL – FUNCTIONAL – DURABLE

Milled grooves

Using new technology we offer this excellent solution for effi cient slip resistance. The grooves, only 2 mm deep and thus minimally invasive as regards appearance, are impregnated and easy to clean.

ECONOMICAL – FUNCTIONAL – EASY TO REPLACE

PVC strip

The PVC profile is the classical and most commonly used solution as economical, high strength slip resistance for particularly busy pedestrian areas. Supplied in different colours and easily replaceable, it also serves as a demarcation line on stairs, today compulsory in public buildings.

ELEGANT – DURABLE – DOES NOT REQUIRE ANY MAINTENANCE

Steel profile

This is definitely the most stylish slip resistance, easy to clean and does not require any maintenance as time passes. It also matches perfectly with steel railings.

ADDS NO THICKNESS AND ENSURES A HIGH DEGREE OF SLIP RESISTANCE

Carborundum strip

This is obtained by pouring a mixture of coloured resin and carborundum into a milled slot 10 x 5 mm. The result is a very high performance non-slip strip which does not protrude above the surface of the tread and can be coloured at will, thus acting also as a demarcation line on the stair.

ECONOMICAL AND FUNCTIONAL BUT DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN

Sand-blasted strip

Extremely economical and commonly used anti-slip solution, but extremely difficult to maintain as time passes because of the very porous surface. Not to be recommended especially in combination with light-coloured materials and absolutely not suited for areas with high pedestrian traffic.
