According to the National Safety Council over 9 million disabling slip and fall injuries occur each year.  No matter the industry, slip and falls must be a main concern for companies.  This may seem like an overwhelming task if there are large work platforms, stair cases, or walkways that are slippery and need to be made safe.  SlipNOT® Metal Safety Flooring makes transforming slippery walking areas into safe environments easy.

Catwalks, work platforms, drainage areas, crossovers, loading ramps and maintenance areas among others can often become dangerous when coated with slippery substances, dust or even just from high use.  Replacing the entire floor may be a time consuming, expensive and labor intensive process that companies may not see as an option.  SlipNOT® Metal Safety Flooring has a solution that will provide workers with safe flooring, and not require a complete shutdown of the work area.  SlipNOT® non-slip metal plate, expanded metal or perforated plate can be easily retrofit over the existing flooring making it safe.

Refurbishing: Dangerous metal flooring such as plate or grating can also be sent directly to SlipNOT® and the slip resistant coating can be applied directly to it.  This process refurbishes the existing flooring and creates a safe work space

Grating is extremely versatile and can be used in a variety of environments.  Vault covers, work platforms, drainage basins, trench covers, stairways and crossovers constructed of metal grating can become dangerous from any remains of slippery substances that drain through them.  Replacing large areas of grating is very labor intensive and may call for a large amount of down time.  SlipNOT® offers options for retrofitting slip resistant safety overtop of slippery grating.  Non-slip solid plate, expanded metal and perforated plate all create a high traction surface in every direction.

Grating areas that can benefit from retrofitting  SlipNOT®:

• Stair treads
• Platforms
• Walkways
• Vault covers
• Drains
• Crossovers
• Mezzanines
• Among others

Benefits:

Non-slip expanded metal can be easily tack welded or bolted on to existing grating.  SlipNOT® expanded metal provides safety as well as complete drainage capabilities.  Slip resistant perforated plate provides a more solid approach to retrofitting grating while still providing drainage for liquids.  Perforated plate is available in a variety of hole sizes and spacing.  Solid SlipNOT® plate easily redesigns work areas that no longer have a need for complete drainage.  All products are available in steel, aluminum and stainless steel and can be custom fabricated to fit the work space.
