Often, the consequences of a possible fall are underestimated, while the physical consequences – disruption, sprain and strain or worse – are certainly not lying around. The most common causes of falling and slipping are:
Most occupational health and safety regulations are clear in their safety requirements regarding floors to which work is being carried out. A workplace must ensure firmness and stability, be free from irregularities, facilitate hygienic use and have the necessary anti-slip characteristics.
It is recommended that work floors are already fitted with sufficient slip resistance during the design phase, but existing floors where this is not (yet), can then obtain the necessary friction properties with the appropriate coating system afterwards.
HIM anti-slip coatings can be applied to (existing) plastic floors and directly to concrete. Our epoxy and polyurethane coatings can be applied in a more severe form. The above coatings obtain their anti-slip effect by adding a special anti-slip powder with a grain size of 0.1 mm to the last layer.
When you want to obtain non-slip performance by using a floor coating on concrete, you have the choice between a thin-layer coating and high solid/100% solid coatings.
An anti-slip coating is required in areas where liquids or other materials may accumulate, such as food processing facilities, production environments and sanitation. Such floors also require wear-resistant, dirt-repellent properties and anti-slip coatings.
HIM takes safety very seriously. As a coating and flooring specialist we know exactly how to make your existing floor safe and secure. Meanwhile, thousands of m² of operating floors are safe thanks to our non-slip floor solutions. Also comply with the Health and Safety Regulations!
