Featuring a high-grip anti-slip insert, this profile is ideal for use on external concrete, timber or metal stairways in commercial, public and residential settings. Available in a choice of contrasting insert colours and multiple standard lengths, it offers a practical solution for safer, longer-lasting external stairs.
