Choosing the Right Solution

Installing anti-slip GRP improves safety of persons visiting your premises - customers, patients, patrons, passengers - as well as staff and officials, no matter the weather or environment.

Anti-slip GRP sheets are ideal for use on ramps, walkways, entrances and exits around a business premises or service buildings. They help prevent slips, trips and falls, ensuring safety. Blue Diamond GRP sheets have exceptional strength and durability, and are renowned for impressive resilience against harsh environmental conditions, including moisture, UV rays, and exposure to chemicals. GRP flat sheets remain unaffected by rust, corrosion, or degradation, ensuring their structural integrity over time.

They are ideal for installation of non-slip outdoor flooring for ramps and can be used in a wide range of interior and exterior applications. These include high-traffic industrial settings, coastal areas, chemical plants, or healthcare and educational facilities such as hospitals, schools, and GP surgeries. Flat GRP anti-slip sheets can be cut and customised accordingly to specific design and safety requirements, ensuring that safety is prioritised without compromising the aesthetics of a space.

Stair Treads vs. Stair Nosing

Anti-slip GRP stair treads and stair nosings serve different purposes and should be used based on your specific requirements and conditions. For any help in choosing a product for your requirements, our technical team can be contacted for advice on 0113 2455450 (option 2) or send a message to [email protected], where we will be very happy to help.

GRP anti-slip stair treads and nosings offer impeccable traction on steps and stairs, reducing the risk of slips and falls even in the most challenging conditions. They are a crucial shield against accidents on staircases and stand out as an all-weather, all-environment solution that prioritise safety whilst requiring minimal maintenance. Anti-slip GRP stair treads and stair nosings are a wise and cost-effective choice for any project.

Anti-slip GRP stair treads extend over the entire step, providing a larger area for foot placement, enhancing both coverage and safety. They are primarily designed to improve traction and reduce the risk of slips and falls by offering a consistent, anti-slip surface across the entire step.

Stair treads are suitable for areas with high traffic, being highly durable and therefore ideal for use in industrial environments, on outdoor stairs and around public buildings.

Anti-slip stair nosings, on the other hand, attach to the edges of steps and stairs. By highlighting the edge of a step they help to reduce the risk of trips, slips, and falls. Blue Diamond Anti-Slip GRP Stair Nosings comply with Equality Act/DDA Regulations and Building Regulations Part M to ensure accessibility for everyone.

Blue Diamond Anti-Slip GRP Stair Nosings are also aesthetically pleasing, able to be customised to suit branding or seamlessly blend into an environment whilst also maximising safety. In some cases, both stair treads and stair nosing may be used together to provide comprehensive safety and protection for an entire staircase.

Compliance

Blue Diamond use the Pendulum Test to measure slip resistance on their anti-slip GRP products, a method that simulates real-world conditions to provide accurate and reliable results. This ensures the highest safety standards to help reduce slips, trips and falls.

Pendulum Test results show that Blue Diamond's anti-slip product range consistently meets the highest level of slip resistance.
