More Details

This product alters the slip coefficient, particularly on wet floors, reducing the likelihood of slipping without changing the look of the surface. The product can be applied to new or old floors. The surface is first tested by the Posigrip Licensee to determine the nature of the application required and the quoted price includes cleaning, testing and the application itself. A slip co-efficient is determined prior to application.

Licensees are available throughout Australia. Contact supplier for details.
