Stay Safe with Anti-Slip Megagrip

Certain areas of our homes are susceptible to slips and falls. Polished floorboards and glossy tiles frequently used on staircases and in bathrooms are examples of surfaces that can cause a tumble.Slips can occur anywhere, from showers and floors to pathways, balconies, walkways, and foyers. In fact, injuries as a result of a slip are so common that slip-resistant requirements in residential and commercial properties are now mandatory.

Anti-Slip coating

We cannot bubble wrap the beautiful features that make our homes striking, but there IS something we can do to prevent the chances of a fall while still maintaining the aesthetics of our interiors. That solution is Anti-Slip. Anti-Slip tiles and coatings increase safety and prevent accidents via their specially developed slip resistant coatings.

Megasealed’s anti-slip coating solution Megagrip caters to all surfaces across all environments - aged care facilities, retirement homes, gyms, pools, hotels, commercial kitchens, residential properties, and child care facilities. Megagripcomes in three variations which can be applied on porcelain and ceramic tile, natural stone such as granite, marble, slate, limestone, terrazzo, and the majority of other surfaces that are a slippery hazard.

All three of our Megagrip products have been CSIRO tested and approved:

1. Chemical Etchant (CSIRO Medium Anti-Slip rating)

Etches the tiles to leave a satin finish to the surface, reducing the likelihood of slipping.

2. Megagrip™ Standard (CSIRO High Anti-Slip rating)

Used for renovations or new construction of smooth floors, especially in wet areas.

3. Megagrip™ Heavy Duty (CSIRO Very High Anti-Slip rating)

Steps and ramps will become more slip-resistant, yet still remain attractive.

Megagrip is long lasting, easily installed, and available at an affordable price. It has a proven track record of reducing slip risks and meets WH&S requirements for workplace floors. Additionally, areas treated with Megagrip can be used within 24 – 48 hours, meaning no lengthy waits to use those highly accessed areas of your property, workplace or facility.
