Description
These GRP anti-slip stair nosings provide a fast, effective way to make stair edges safer and more visible in line with DDA guidelines. Manufactured from hard‑wearing glass reinforced plastic with a textured, non-slip surface, they are designed to be retrofitted over existing steps with minimal disruption.
Suitable for internal and external stairs in commercial, industrial and public buildings, these nosings clearly define step edges, reduce slip risks and improve accessibility. Available in a choice of colours, lengths and profile grades, they can be cut to size on site for a neat, professional finish.
Product Features
- Durable GRP construction with integral anti-slip grit finish for long-lasting performance.
