Grip Guard floor safety - non-slip with a difference
Most businesses are aware of their legal obligation to provide a safe working
environment for their employees. However, it is often very difficult for business owners who
are faced with a slippery floor surface to find a non-slip floor solution that meets four
essential criteria;
- The non-slip treatment must help businesses to meet with OH&S standards. Grip Guard
helps businesses to ensure that they are offering the degree of floor safety needed to protect
their employees from the dangers of slip and fall injuries. Grip Guard operators utilise an
ASM slip meter which provides OH&S officers with a co-efficient of friction reading before and
after anti-slip treatment and the results of the slip testing is recorded on the Grip Guard warranty.
- The non-slip treatment must not interfere with the integrity of the floor surface. By choosing
an anti slip treatment that is not an etch and is not a coating, business owners are protecting
the integrity of their floor surfaces. Etching processes may use harsh chemicals that can create
permanent damage to the floor surface and coatings can wear off, peel, flake and become damaged
which may allow bacteria, dirt and grime to lodge in the damaged surface. Grip Guard is the world's
most chosen anti-slip treatment because it does not damage the floor surface, it is not a coating
and won't wear off the floor surface, and it doesn't change the appearance of the floor surface.
- The non-slip treatment must be carried out without fuss or interruption to the business. Many
non-slip treatments require businesses to suspend operations while application is being carried
out. Grip Guard operators often work outside normal working hours to ensure that the businesses
do not lose time and dollars through loss of operating hours.
- The non-slip provider must have a have an excellent reputation that guarantees that the job is
done properly. Grip Guard is the world's largest and most respected floor safety provider in the world.
Grip Guard has floor safety operators located throughout Australia and New Zealand including VIC
(Melbourne), QLD (Brisbane), NSW (Sydney, Newcastle), SA (Adelaide), WA (Perth, Bunbury) and Auckland
as well as other regional areas.
