Description
This commercial GRP stair nosing is a heavy-duty, anti-slip profile designed to significantly improve stair safety in high-traffic environments. Manufactured from glass reinforced plastic (GRP), it provides a hard-wearing, corrosion-resistant edge to existing steps while delivering reliable slip resistance in both wet and dry conditions.
With an R13 slip rating and fire testing to recognised standards, this stair nosing is ideal for commercial, industrial and public access staircases where compliance, durability and user safety are essential. It is suitable for use on internal and external stairs, and can be retrofitted to existing steps to upgrade their safety performance.
Product Features
- Heavy-duty GRP stair nosing for commercial and industrial applications
- R13 slip resistance rating for secure footing in wet or contaminated conditions
- Fire tested to help meet safety and building regulation requirements
- Durable, impact- and corrosion-resistant construction for long service life
- Pre-formed nosing profile designed to protect and highlight step edges
- Suitable for internal and external stairs, including concrete, timber and metal substrates
- Single standard option for simple specification and consistent performance across a site
Key Features and Benefits
- Enhanced safety: R13 slip rating offers a very high level of traction, helping reduce the risk of slips and falls on stairways.
- Compliance support: Fire-tested GRP construction assists with meeting relevant safety standards and duty-of-care obligations in commercial settings.
- Long-lasting performance: Tough, weather-resistant material withstands heavy foot traffic, impact and exposure to moisture and chemicals.
- Improved stair edge visibility: Defined nosing profile clearly marks the step edge, helping users judge the tread and riser more accurately.
- Low maintenance: Non-porous, easy-clean surface reduces cleaning time and maintains slip resistance with basic routine care.
- Cost-effective upgrade: Can be fitted to existing stairs to improve safety without the cost or disruption of full stair replacement.
