With the winter months now upon us, both work and public spaces will become increasingly hazardous due to the change in season and weather.
Accidents involving slips still remains one of the highest causes of non-fatal injuries in a working environment. A slip can lead to a severe injury, resulting in time off work, or in the very worst cases, a fatality.
Safe Industrial’s flooring range offers ideal solutions to combat slip hazards in both work and public environments.
COBA’s range offers a wide choice of products. These include the COBAGrip® Sheet, UV stabilised sheets in both standard and light-duty grades, available in black, grey and yellow. There is also COBAGrip® Anti-Slip Stair Nosing available in yellow for bright colour visibility, meeting DDA requirements.
The COBAGrip® range can be used both internally and externally and provides excellent anti-slip properties in wet or icy conditions due to its silicon carbide gritted surface. It can either be glued or screwed to the floor surface, allowing for a hassle-free installation, making it the perfect choice for floors, walkways, and stairways. It also requires little to no maintenance, even when used outdoors.

Blue Diamond offers Anti-Slip GRP Stair Treads as well as Anti-Slip GRP Stair Nosing and Anti-Slip GRP Decking Strips all available in black or yellow options. Featuring robust fibreglass GRP construction designed to withstand the harshest of conditions and heavy usage.
For indoor anti-slip safety look at Beaverswood’s Anti-Slip Stair Treads in black, or their stair treads suitable for low light, like the Photoluminescent Anti-Slip Stair Treads which have a photoluminescent stripe, or the Reflective Strip Anti-Slip Stair Treads which have a yellow reflective stripe.
The treads are manufactured through a unique process ensuring it’s one of the most effective anti-slip surfaces available – they have a thick carrier impregnated with diamond hard aluminium oxide making it hardy, tough, durable and long lasting. The backing has a heavy coating of permanent pressure sensitive adhesive which ensures once it’s stuck down, it stays down.
All of these anti-slip solutions will help improve the safety of your workplace or public space and lessen the risk of accidental slips and trips.
