Description
This 40x40mm PVC anti-slip stair nosing provides a practical, hard-wearing edge protection solution for both indoor and outdoor steps. Manufactured from flexible PVC, it is designed to cap and protect the front edge of stair treads while improving slip resistance on the step edge.
Ideal for use on timber, concrete, laminate and tiled stairs, this nosing helps to define the step edge and reduce the risk of trips and slips in homes, offices, shops and public access areas. Its flexible profile allows for easier installation on slightly uneven or imperfect substrates, extending the life of the stair edge and improving overall safety.
Product Features
- 40x40mm L-shaped profile for standard stair edges, providing coverage on both tread and riser.
- Durable PVC construction with integrated anti-slip surface to enhance grip underfoot.
- Flexible material design helps accommodate minor surface irregularities and contours.
- Suitable for indoor and outdoor use in dry or occasionally wet conditions.
- Single standard option for straightforward specification and consistent appearance across stairs.
- Pre-formed profile for simple cutting to length on site with basic hand tools.
- Compatible with mechanical fixings or appropriate adhesive, depending on substrate and installation preference.
Key Features and Benefits
- Improves stair safety by clearly defining the step edge and providing an anti-slip surface at the point of foot contact.
- Protects stair nosings from chipping, wear and impact damage, helping to prolong the life of the underlying stair material.
- Flexible PVC profile allows for easier installation on slightly uneven steps, reducing preparation time on refurbishment projects.
- Low-maintenance, easy-to-clean surface that resists everyday dirt and scuffing in busy environments.
- Suitable for both interior and exterior stairs, allowing continuity of finish between entrance steps and internal staircases.
