Description
This anti slip ceramic stair nosing is designed to protect the leading edge of tiled staircases while providing a clearly defined, slip-resistant step. Manufactured from robust aluminium with an integrated PVC insert, it creates a safe and professional finish to ceramic and porcelain tiled steps in both commercial and domestic environments.
Available in 10mm and 12.5mm tile depths and a choice of contrasting tread colours, this nosing is ideal for new installations or refurbishments where durability, safety and compliance are essential. Supplied in lengths of 1.0m, 1.5m, 2.0m and 2.8m, it can be cut to size on site to suit individual stair widths.
