NON-SLIP PROFILES FOR FIXED OR PORTABLE STAIR TREADS
Non-slip fiberglass step covers for steps of any material (wood, concrete, gratings, extrusions, etc.)
Non-slip fiberglass covers for steps
The non-slip surface offers formidable slip resistance and also includes the angle of the step, which is the cause of most accidents.
Stairs (both fixed and portable) can be quite slippery, especially if the steps or shoes are in contact with water, grease, or other slippery organic material.
Depending on the situation, working on portable ladders or fixed staircases poses an increased hazard that can result in serious injury or even death.
It is therefore extremely important to cover potentially slippery steps with our anti-slip covers, to prevent accidents and falls.
They are made from quality fiberglass with built-in aluminum oxide grit.
This makes them almost indestructible and very slip-resistant.
Our non-slip covers fit directly into existing steps and can cover different depths and widths.
The covers also protect the steps on which they will be laid, extending their life and reducing maintenance costs.
These covers can be produced in any color combination and with any type of writing or logo, so that they can act as a reminder of safety or other type of communication
What are the benefits?
Our stair tread covers are typically used in environments contaminated with oil, salt, snow, water or other slippery materials (marine, off-shore, industrial and commercial environments) where old ladders with worn rungs or steps are often used.
- Reduced Slip and Fall Hazards – The non-slip surface provides excellent grip, even when the ladder is wet or oily, making it safe for workers and passers-by to get on and off.
- Improved ladder safety: By installing our step covers, the risk of slips and falls is greatly reduced.
- Compliance with safety standards – Installing our stair covers can ensure that safety standards and regulations are met, reducing the risk of penalties for non-compliance or legal liability.
- Reduce workplace accidents and injury-related costs – By reducing the risk of slips and falls, our stair tread covers reduce accident-related costs.

GLUING SYSTEM AND APPLICATION ON STEPS WITH SMOOTH SURFACE
- Clean and degrease the surface of the step by cleaning it of dust, paint or other material residues
- Make sure that the contact surface of the GRP profile is clean (free of dust or impurities).
- Apply the adhesive to the contact surface of the step with the special silicone pipe gun when applying on solid steps (concrete, wood, extrusions, aluminum, etc.)
- The application must have a wavy pattern in order to expand the gluing surface.
- Immediately place the profile on the step by pressing with your hand for a few seconds
- Allow to dry for 24 hours before using the scale
- Each glue tube has a linear yield that depends on the type of step.
- It is advisable to have additional glue pipes to avoid running out during installation
HOW TO CHOOSE THE CORRECT COVER BASED ON STEP SIZE
It will be sufficient to communicate to SVELT the data of the width and depth of the step.
