Description
These GRP decking strips provide a simple, effective way to upgrade slippery timber, composite or concrete decks with a durable, non-slip surface. Manufactured from glass reinforced plastic with a gritted anti-slip finish, they offer long-lasting slip resistance in wet, icy or high-traffic conditions.
Designed for quick installation onto existing boards, each strip measures 90mm wide and is available in 1m, 1.5m and 3m lengths to suit a range of decking layouts. Available in black, yellow and beige, they are ideal for garden decks, access ramps, walkways, steps and loading areas where improved underfoot safety is required.
Product Features
- Heavy-duty GRP (glass reinforced plastic) construction with a hard-wearing gritted anti-slip surface.
- Standard 90mm width, ideal for single-deck board coverage on most domestic and commercial decks.
- Available lengths: 1000mm x 90mm x 3mm, 1500mm x 90mm x 3mm and 3000mm x 90mm x 3mm for flexible installation.
- Choice of colours: black for discreet safety, yellow for high visibility, and beige for a more natural, subtle appearance.
- Low-profile 3mm thickness minimises trip risk while providing a robust anti-slip surface.
- UV and weather resistant, suitable for year-round outdoor use in exposed environments.
- Pre-drilled on site if required and fixed with suitable screws or adhesive for quick retrofit to existing decking.
Key Features and Benefits
- Improves safety on slippery decks by providing reliable grip underfoot in wet, icy or algae-prone conditions.
- Cost-effective alternative to full deck replacement, allowing you to extend the life of existing boards.
- Easy to cut to size and install, keeping disruption and downtime to a minimum on both domestic and commercial sites.
- Highly visible yellow option helps define step edges, ramps and hazard areas to aid user awareness.
- Corrosion-resistant GRP will not rust, rot or warp, reducing maintenance compared with metal or timber solutions.
- Low-profile design integrates neatly with most decking systems without significantly altering floor levels.
