Non Slip Flooring Perth
Anti-slip floor coatings with the grip level set area by area. Kitchens, wash bays, ramps, walkways and pool surrounds across Perth and regional WA.
Grip Is A Specification, Not A Product
Non slip flooring gets sold as though it is one thing you either have or you do not. It is not. It is a scale, and picking the right point on it is the whole job.
Too little grip and the floor is dangerous the first time it gets wet. Too much and it becomes impossible to clean properly, holds soil in the texture, and in a food or medical setting that becomes its own problem. The wrong choice in either direction is a failure.
So we set it area by area. A dry retail floor, a commercial kitchen, a ramp and a pool surround all need different answers, and often the same building needs two or three of them.
How We Build Grip Into A Floor
Aggregate goes into the coating rather than onto it. It is broadcast into the wet resin and sealed in, which means the texture is part of the floor system rather than a surface treatment sitting on top.

That matters for one reason above all others: it does not wear off. Anti-slip additives sprayed or rolled over a finished floor look the same on day one and are gone within a year in a trafficked area, usually right where people walk most, which is exactly where the grip was needed.
The grade and quantity of the aggregate is what sets the texture. Fine aggregate at low density gives a subtle grip you barely notice underfoot. Coarse aggregate at high density gives the sort of surface a wash bay or a loading ramp needs.
Getting The Level Right
Light texture
Showrooms, retail floors, offices and reception areas. Enough grip for a wet shoe on a rainy day without changing how the floor looks or cleans.
Medium texture
Commercial kitchens, change rooms, walkways, bathrooms and general work areas. The most common specification we install.
Heavy texture
Wash bays, wet processing areas, loading docks, ramps and pool surrounds. Anywhere that is wet most of the time or sloped, or where people are moving quickly.
Zoned
Different levels across one floor. A workshop might run medium across the bays and heavy through the wash bay. A warehouse might be light across the main floor and heavy on the dock and ramp. It costs very little extra at installation and makes far more sense than picking one level for the whole building.
Where Non Slip Coatings Are Used
Commercial kitchens and food areas, where grease and water together make the worst combination there is underfoot. Workshops and wash bays with oil, coolant and water across the same slab. Ramps, loading docks and thresholds, sloped and usually wet at the entry point. Warehouse walkways and pedestrian zones, often combined with demarcation marking. Change rooms, ablutions and pool surrounds, wet and walked on barefoot. Schools, aged care and medical, where a fall has consequences beyond the injury. Alfresco areas and outdoor steps.
Hazard Marking And Demarcation
Grip is one half of floor safety. Making people look where they are going is the other.
We apply hazard striping, step and edge highlighting, pedestrian walkways, forklift exclusion zones and bay demarcation as part of the coating system rather than as paint over the top. Applied that way it stays legible under traffic instead of wearing off within months.
Yellow edge marking on steps, ramps and dock edges is one of the cheapest safety improvements available in a working building, and it gets done in the same visit as the floor.

Non Slip Flooring Questions
Will the grip wear off?
Not with aggregate broadcast into the coating, because the texture is part of the floor rather than a layer on top. Anti-slip products applied over a finished floor do wear off, usually within a year, and usually in the exact spot where you needed them.
Will it be hard to clean?
It depends on how heavy the texture is, which is why matching it to the area matters. A medium texture mops normally. A heavy texture in a wash bay is designed to be hosed rather than mopped. We will tell you what the cleaning looks like before you commit.
Can I have different levels in one building?
Yes, and most buildings should. Zoning by area costs very little at installation and gives you grip where it is needed without making the whole floor harder to maintain.
Can you add grip to a floor we already have?
Sometimes, but it usually means recoating rather than topping up, because grip added over a cured floor does not last. We will look at what is down and tell you honestly which it needs.
Is it comfortable in bare feet?
Around pools and in change rooms we use a texture that grips wet feet without being uncomfortable. It is a different specification to a workshop wash bay.
Does it come in colours?
Yes. Slip resistance and appearance are separate decisions – you can have a decorative or coloured finish with the grip built in.
What about our ramp?
Ramps and thresholds usually get a heavier grade than the surrounding floor. They are wet, sloped and where most slips happen.
Do you do the hazard marking as well?
Yes, applied as part of the same system so it wears at the same rate as the floor.
