Non-Slip Treatment for Ceramic/Porcelain Tiles

Grip Guard Non-Slip treatment is a highly effective application which modifies floor surfaces to make them slip resistant when wet.Most Australians are aware of their legal responsibility to provide a safe floor surfaces for pedestrians who access their premises.  Often, in spite of choosing tiles or other floor surfaces that are ‘slip resistant’ property owners find that, when wet, their floors are dangerously slippery.

Areas such as verandahs, entryways, bathrooms, laundries, kitchens, food preparation areas, outdoor walkways, and driveways become a nightmare when water is spilled or tracked onto the floor.

Grip Guard non-slip treatment modifies the floor surface to reduce the risk of pedestrians slipping and falling on wet floor surfaces.  The anti-slip treatment is not a coating but rather a surface modification treatment.

The slip resistance is increased by creating a sort of ‘microscopic tread pattern’ in the floor surface that dramatically decreases the chance of aquaplaning – the major cause of slip and fall injuries on wet floor surfaces.

Grip Guard non-slip treatment is also suitable for other stone-based surfaces including concrete (polished and unpolished), terrazzo, pavers, slate, limestone, granite, marble…virtually any stone-based surface.

Floors treated with Grip Guard non-slip treatment can be walked on immediately after treatment has been completed so usually works can be carried during business hours, if necessary.

Grip Guard operators are available to provide obligation free demonstrations and quotes throughout Australia in Victoria (Melbourne), New South Wales (Sydney and Newcastle), South Australia (Adelaide), Western Australia (Perth and Bunbury), Queensland (Brisbane), and Tasmania as well as internationally.
