100% slip reduction
May 1st 2009

Gripfit has achieved a 100% reduction in litigation and compensation claims resulting from slips and trips for a major retail outlet, following the installation of its fixed aluminium frame matting system in entrance and high slip areas.

Prior to the installation Gripfit undertook an analysis of the existing flooring and matting and of the volume and direction of traffic. Gripfit then designed purpose built solutions, using a variety of different matting products. Common to each matting installation was the use of the unique Gripfit fixed flooring system, to ensure that the matting was fixed securely and safely and adhered to all relevant H&S and matting regulations.

Gripfit is a low profile, fixed aluminium frame available in bespoke or fixed lengths, which can be adhered to any flat flooring surface to securely lock a mat in place, or provide a fixing to seamlessly link flooring of different materials. All products come with five year warranties.

Following installation, Gripfit can provide follow up maintenance service to check and clean all products used within the system, to ensure that warranties are retained.
