Anti Slip Solutions manufacture a range of products for improving the safety of walked on surfaces.
The HSE states "Floors need to have enough grip for pedestrians to walk safely, but what does this mean? Grip is measured as 'Coefficient of Friction'. For safe pedestrian walking on the level this should be 0.36 or higher." It also says " it's no good testing a clean and dry floor then expecting it to be slip resistant in the wet."
Slips and Trip accidents in the UK are responsible for;
- 38% of all reported major injuries
- 24% of over-3-day injuries to employees
- Cost to employers £512 million per year
- Cost to health service £133 million per year
- Slips,trips & falls on the level accounted for 698,336 bed days in 2002/03 but accidents involving car occupants accounted for only 82,395

- Poor surface co-efficient of friction combined with poor maintenance are key factors causing slip injuries
- Treatments and coatings can increase surface co-efficient of friction to meet and exceed HSE guidelines.
- The frequency of cleaning can optimise the anti-slip properties of your floors
