What Is Anti-Slip Treatment and how does it work?
A nano technology treatment which reduces the risk and danger of slip and fall, which is resulting in potential injury, reputation loss, litigation costs, employee days lost, fatal falls and accidents in bathrooms. Anti-slip can be used on almost all hard surfaces, such as ceramic & vitrified tiles, porcelain, natural stones such as granite, marble, quarry tile etc. Anti-slip floor treatment eliminates slippery floor problems by creating microscopic pores which are invisible to human eyes. Anti-slip treatment is a not coating that can wear off, but a system that creates microscopic texture which increases SCOF* on the surface without losing the look or feel of your flooring.
