Cleaning and maintenance
Ongoing care for your anti-slip treatment is crucial to ensuring its long-term effectiveness.
Why cleaning and maintenance matters
Treated surfaces may fail slip resistance testing if they have been polished, cleaned with the wrong products, or allowed to build up dirt and residue. That’s why maintaining your floors properly isn’t just smart, it’s essential for long-term safety and compliance.
Common cleaning mistakes
- Using cleaners that leave a film or residue, reducing grip
- Polishing floors in high-risk areas, making them more slippery
- Infrequent cleaning, allowing dirt, oils, and water to build up
