Anti-Slip Systems

Anti-slip systems as one of the interior application can be considered as a precaution for occupational safety. Slippery surfaces especially in workplaces with disabled employees can become a significant threat. Anti-slip systems can prevent possible accidents and enable occupational safety of all employees. Ground studies before application can help identifying surface slipperiness risk and ratio.

Non-slip tests are conducted in workplaces and institutions with professional tools. Evaluation of data and reports obtained from these tools presents applicability of relates systems. There are certain conditions to be met for correct test results. First, application surface should be cleaned. This surface should be free of all dirt and oil. Similarly, slides of measurement device should also be clean. Measurement device should be kept in measurement environment for half an hour to adjust physical conditions of that environment.

Measurements should be repeated at least five times. This way, more correct data and results can be achieved. After each measurement, slides of the measurement device should be cleaned. Expert institutions can conduct complete and perfect surface test. After obtaining the most correct results, one of the anti-slip systems can be selected.

This is a solution with lowest cost. There are emery models or straight models. Since these bands can be manufactured in different colours, these bands should have noticeable and contrast colours with application surface. Straight anti-slip band application is used in surfaces that will be stepped with barefoot such as wet surfaces, pools, and bathtub. Emery band models are applied on surfaces that will be stepped with shoes.

These applications are preferred for surface with high human circulation and has slipping risk in wet or dry form. This solution should be provided to prevent any injuries and related responsibilities of institutions. Anti-slip surface application should not be considered as changing the current surface. This application consists of anti-slip surface coating with affordable costs. This process does not involve long and burdensome operations such as renewing or breaking the existing surface of businesses and institutions. Therefore, this application has advantages in terms of practicality.
