Reduce workplace slip hazards with durable, compliant anti slip systems

High-risk walking surfaces in industrial and commercial facilities
Industrial and commercial environments regularly expose workers and visitors to slip hazards caused by oil, water, dust, grease, metal shavings, cleaning chemicals, and weather-related moisture. High foot traffic, shift work, forklifts, and material handling further increase the likelihood of slips, trips, and falls, especially on stairs, ramps, ladders, platforms, and production floors.
Industrial & Commercial
Industrial and commercial sites get slippery fast: wet boots, dust, oil, washdowns, and heavy traffic. Stairs and landings are usually the first problem areas, so many facilities start with aluminium stair nosings, treads and strips to add grip and protect worn step edges.

For wet, corrosive, or washdown areas, FRP stair nosings and treads are a solid option for long-term traction. For ramps, platforms, and flat walkways, use anti slip products for ladders, walkways, ramps and flat surfaces to keep footing consistent where people carry tools, push carts, or move between indoor and outdoor zones.
If you’re upgrading an area or doing a small retrofit, anti slip construction products help you add traction without a full rebuild. The goal is simple: fewer slip incidents, less downtime, and safer access across stairs, mezzanines, loading areas, and maintenance routes.
FAQs
Canadian workplaces typically follow provincial occupational health and safety regulations, CSA guidelines, and internal corporate safety policies. Slip resistance is commonly assessed using coefficient of friction testing and compliance with stair and access safety standards.
Yes. Many Safety Step Canada products are designed for environments exposed to oils, grease, water, and chemicals. Options such as FRP stair treads and aluminum nosings with abrasive inserts provide long-term traction even under contamination.
Industrial-grade anti slip products are engineered to withstand constant foot traffic, carts, forklifts, vibration, and frequent cleaning. Properly installed systems offer long service life with minimal maintenance requirements.
