Anti-Slip Solutions for Chemical, Petrochemical & Pharmaceutical Facilities
Whether you are involved in petroleum refining, petrochemical manufacturing, specialty chemical manufacturing, or pharmaceutical processing, maintaining safe walking and working surfaces is critical to protecting employees, contractors, and visitors.
Every plant and environment presents a unique combination of challenges, including elevated temperatures, corrosive environments, complex process equipment, and persistent slipand-fall hazards. These demanding conditions require durable anti slip solutions engineered to perform in some of the most hazardous industrial environments
For more than 30 years, Safeguard Technology has helped industrial facilities improve worker safety with durable anti slip products designed specifically for challenging operating conditions. Our anti slip covers exceed OSHA requirements and have been protecting workers since 1992.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
SAFEGUARD® Anti-Slip Products Improve Safety Throughout Operations
Hazardous environments require safety products that can withstand corrosion, temperature fluctuations, heavy traffic, and continuous industrial use. Safeguard Technology anti-slip products are designed to improve traction while helping facilities address common slip-and-fall hazards throughout the refining process.
Available in fiberglass (FRP composite), galvanized steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and other application-specific materials, Safeguard products can be installed over worn surfaces, diamond plate, grip strut, ladder rungs, open grating, and other existing structures.
Features include:
- Corrosion-resistant material options
- Suitable for elevated-temperature environments
- Covers for stairways, walkways, ladders, grating, and platforms
- High-visibility color options
- Photoluminescent (glow-in-the-dark) safety solutions
- Custom safety markings and visual hazard indicators
- Retrofit installation over existing surfaces
- Proven performance in hazardous industrial environments
Processing Areas & Operational Walkways
Processing operations require personnel to move safely throughout complex production environments. Exposure to moisture, oils, fine powders, chemicals and process residues can create dangerous walking conditions.
Safeguard anti slip walkway covers help improve footing and provide reliable traction throughout operational areas where worker safety is essential.
Stairways, Platforms & Elevated Access
Workers frequently access elevated process equipment, structures, and operating platforms using stairways that are exposed to demanding environmental conditions. Worn stair treads, especially the nose of the tread, and slippery surfaces can significantly increase the risk of injury.
Safeguard anti slip stair covers provide durable traction on critical access routes while improving visibility and worker confidence.
Ladders, Grating & Equipment Access Points
Ladders, open grating, grip strut surfaces and elevated access systems are common throughout process facilities. These areas often provide limited foot contact and can become hazardous when exposed to process contaminants or environmental conditions.
Safeguard anti slip covers are designed to fit over ladder rungs, grating, and other access surfaces to improve safety and reduce slip risks.
Corrosive & High-Temperature Environments
Many facilities combine elevated temperatures with corrosive operating conditions that can quickly degrade traditional safety products.
Available in corrosion-resistant fiberglass, stainless steel, galvanized steel, and aluminum, Safeguard products are designed to withstand harsh environments while providing long-lasting slip resistance.
Emergency Routes & Low Light Safety
During emergency situations, shutdowns, or power interruptions, personnel must be able to safely identify stairways, walkways, and evacuation routes.
Safeguard Technology s photoluminescent (glow-in the dark) anti slip products help improve visibility and provide critical visual guidance when normal lighting conditions are compromised.
Visual Hazard Identification & Safety Markings
Production facilities rely on clear visual communication to improve worker awareness and reinforce safety procedures. Color-coded safety surfaces and visual hazard indicators can help reduce risk in highconsequence environments.
Safeguard Technology can incorporate highvisibility colors, visual hazard cues, and custom safety messaging into anti slip products to help facilities improve safety awareness throughout their operations.
