Get to grips with flooring
October 1st 2009 Grip Rock, a new safety matting
for kitchen frying areas and
potentially dangerous floors
has achieved an R13 rating on
the DIN51130 standard – the
highest rating possible with
slip resistance in excess of a 35
degree angle.
Introduced by Plastic
Extruders,Grip Rock is suitable
for preparation areas where
oils, spillage and dropped food
make safety underfoot vital.
Three layers include a tough,
durable wearing surface made
with ceramic and crushed
garnet beads, a fibreglass
interlayer to provide strength
and a polyurethane backing
which grips the floor and
restricts creep.The low 3mm
profile reduces the risk of
tripping,will fit under kitchen
equipment and allow trolleys
to traverse easily.
In the catering industry, slips
account for about 86% of the
total slips and trips injuries and
in 90% of cases the floor was
wet or greasy.The matting is
available in 12m x 91cm rolls
and 1.5m x 91cm modules. More articles from Plastic Extruders Limited: |
