Description
This heavy-duty aluminium non-slip stair nosing is designed to provide a robust, clearly defined step edge on staircases in busy environments. Featuring a 60mm tread and 55mm riser profile, it incorporates a coloured PVC insert to deliver excellent slip resistance and high visual contrast, supporting safer movement up and down the stairs.
Available in a choice of lengths from 1m to 3.22m and a wide range of insert colours, this stair nosing is ideal for commercial and industrial settings such as offices, schools, hospitals, factories and public buildings. It is suitable for use on concrete, timber and most finished stair surfaces, and helps meet DDA guidance on visual contrast for step edges.
