OSHA-compliant slip-resistant coatings for ramps, kitchens, pool decks, and commercial kitchens.
We add graded aluminum oxide or polymer beads into the final clear coat to create a textured, slip-resistant surface that still cleans easily with a mop. We tune the aggressiveness — fine for a barefoot pool deck, medium for a restaurant kitchen, coarse for a loading ramp — so you get exactly the traction you need without sacrificing comfort or hygiene.
Wet floors hurt people. OSHA reports slip-and-fall as the second-leading cause of accidental workplace death, and slip-and-fall liability accounts for roughly $30,000 per incident in the commercial sector. Anti-slip epoxy is the proven engineering solution: a textured coating that increases coefficient of friction without sacrificing cleanability or aesthetic.
Our anti-slip systems incorporate graded aluminum oxide or polymer beads into the final clear coat, creating a tunable texture that ranges from 'fine' (barefoot-friendly pool decks and bathrooms) to 'coarse' (loading ramps and outdoor work areas). The texture is engineered to meet ANSI A1264.2 or OSHA 1910.22 slip-resistance standards depending on the application.
Common applications include restaurant kitchens (where grease and water are constant), pool decks (where ADA compliance is mandatory), ramps and loading docks (where OSHA fall protection is in play), locker rooms and showers (where wet feet meet hard surfaces), medical and food-service facilities (where infection control demands easy cleaning), and barefoot-friendly basement and patio areas.
Anti-slip doesn't mean ugly. The aggregate is broadcast into the final clear coat at controlled density, so the floor still photographs as a smooth, decorative epoxy or polyaspartic finish. From three feet away you see a beautiful floor; from one inch away you feel grip.
Pricing for anti-slip systems is typically a $0.50-$1.50 per square foot premium over equivalent smooth-finish systems. The liability protection and OSHA compliance value far exceed the cost premium for nearly every commercial application.
Three grades: fine for barefoot pool decks, medium for commercial kitchens, coarse for outdoor ramps. You choose during consultation.
No — standard mop and warm water work fine on all three texture levels. We avoid aggregate sizes that would trap grease or grime.
Yes — our systems are engineered to meet or exceed ANSI A1264.2 and OSHA 1910.22 slip-resistance requirements. Documentation provided on request.
Yes — we can grind the existing top coat and re-apply with aggregate broadcast. Typically a one-day job.
Not with the fine grade. Pool decks and bathrooms we install are completely comfortable for barefoot use.
