Description

These aluminium reinforced GRP stair treads provide a robust, long-lasting anti-slip solution for internal and external staircases in demanding environments. Featuring a heavy-duty coarse grit surface and integrated high-visibility nosing, they are designed to significantly improve slip resistance and step identification, even in wet, oily or heavily contaminated conditions.

Chemical-resistant construction makes these treads particularly suitable for industrial, commercial and public access areas where exposure to oils, fuels, cleaning agents and other harsh substances is common. Preformed to a 345mm x 55mm coarse profile and available in a range of standard lengths, they offer fast, effective refurbishment of worn or slippery steps with minimal downtime.

Product Features

  • Aluminium reinforced GRP construction for enhanced strength and dimensional stability on high-traffic staircases.
  • Chemical-resistant, coarse anti-slip surface (345mm x 55mm profile) for superior traction in wet or contaminated areas.
  • High-visibility nosing options: black with yellow nosing or black with white nosing to improve step edge definition.
  • Supplied in a choice of standard lengths: 750mm, 1000mm, 1500mm, 2000mm and 3000mm for flexible installation across different stair widths.
  • Manufactured from corrosion-resistant materials suitable for indoor and outdoor use, including exposed industrial environments.
  • Impact and wear resistant surface designed to withstand heavy footfall and regular cleaning regimes.
  • Preformed stair tread format for quick installation over existing concrete, timber, metal or tiled steps.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Improves stair safety by providing a highly slip-resistant surface, reducing the risk of slips and falls in all weather conditions.
  • Chemical resistance helps maintain performance and appearance in areas exposed to oils, solvents, cleaning agents and other aggressive substances.
  • Contrasting nosing colours enhance visibility of the step edge, aiding compliance with access and safety guidance and supporting users with reduced visibility.
  • Aluminium reinforcement minimises flex and movement under load, delivering a solid underfoot feel and long service life.
  • Choice of lengths allows treads to be matched closely to existing stair widths, reducing cutting on site and speeding up installation.
  • Retrofit design can be installed over worn or damaged steps, avoiding the cost and disruption of full stair replacement.
