The product I wanted was short on stock so not available via their website but after a quick call to their team they were able to sort out what I required very quickly.

Product looks excellent, with subtle colours that blend well with weathered oak (black dune). Fairly unpleasant to cut so wrap up well, & don’t expect to reuse your countersink if self-drilling- but t... See more

About Safe Tread
Written by the company
Get a grip on safety with Safe Tread
We endeavour to reduce the number of accidents caused by slips, trips and falls so that people of all ages can live safe and comfortable lives without the need for complicated solutions.
Statistics show slipping and tripping to be the single most common cause of major injury in the UK and they are often the initiators of accidents attributed to other causes, such as machinery accidents, scalding and falls from height. Slip, trip and fall injuries cost the UK on average 1 billion pounds per year, with the majority of accidents commonly caused by wet or icy floors.
Our range of durable GRP anti-slip products for decking, flooring, stairs and walkways are an industry standard solution, proven to reduce accidents and improve safety by utilising our highly effective, gritted anti-slip safety surface. We pride ourselves on being a UK manufacturer, with the ability to produce a wide range of colours and multi-blend colourways for our anti-slip GRP strips.
By manufacturing in-house, we can produce to your exact specifications, utilising a wide range of grit and colours, supplied within days, not weeks.
Visit our website to view our range of Anti-Slip Step Strips, Decking Strips, Stair Nosing, Stair Treads, Stair Landing Covers, Stair Risers, Floor Sheets, Tactile Paving Plates, GRP Grating and a wide selection of screws, tools and adhesive sealants for installation.

What’s not to like…
Prompt delivery of well protected non slip treads, easy instructions for fitting which I managed in 90 minutes, and even a small surplus of screws.

Better once you see them
We looked all over for anti slip strips and it seems you can only order online. As they are expensive, we asked for a sample. A few days later they turned up. They are made well so we put in an order. They are now down and doing there job. It’s a shame they are so expensive though.

Safe Tread Strips Stop Slips
Anti-slip strips: very good quality, well cut and pre-drilled. Used on decking and steps to decking, decent screws included along with the appropriate bit, which was a good 'plus'. Comms with company good and product was well packaged. A mention too for the website, which was easy to navigate and has very useful information about the products.

Good service. There was an issue on delivery with the road being blocked but they persisted and got the good to me.

Effective solution for slippery decking…
Effective anti slip strips perfectly cut to size and well packaged. Sadly, the pre-drilled screw holes were often off centre and didn’t come supplied with enough screws for me to complete the job of fixing the strips in place. Can’t really grumble though given that the screws came supplied free, but it was a bit frustrating to have to dash off to Wickes to buy screws to enable me to finish the job.
