Many hotels are faced with slippery tiles as well as slippery pool decks and slippery spas. National Sealing is the industry leader in anti slip for hotel floors. The options for slippery floors are: 1) apply a buy-and-apply product (typically by in house staff), or 2) have a non slip process applied professionally. Sealing the tiles with an anti slip product will be temporary and we have not found many of the product claims to be accurate. This compounds the issue, as the trial version must then be removed prior to any proven methods.
This of course adds to the cost. Our process differs substantially. The coating process vs. sealers are more durable and will last longer. Secondly, if a plastic polymer (grip) is added, this too is temporary. In commercial applications or high traffic areas, the small particles of plastic added to the sealer mixture wear very fast. This will compound the slip problem, as additional applications of sealer will build up. Our solution is our coating process. We then broadcast glass beads which are very difficult to crush with pedestrian traffic. This results in a very durable and long lasting surface treatment.
