What are Anti-Skid Pedestrian Surfaces?
Anti-skid pedestrian surfaces are specially designed high-friction coatings that enhance traction and reduce the risk of slips and falls in areas with high foot traffic.
High friction surfaces are essential for ensuring pedestrian safety, particularly in wet, icy, or uneven environments.
Why are Pedestrian Safety Surfaces Important?
Pedestrian safety surfaces reduce accidents in high-traffic areas, ensure accessibility for people of all abilities, and make public spaces safer. They are a reliable option for preventing falls in damp areas such as stairways or entrances.
Pedestrian safety surfaces also meet public safety compliance criteria, ensuring comfort for both property owners and users.
How much do Anti-Skid Pedestrian Surfaces Cost?
The average cost of anti-skid pedestrian surfaces ranges from £20 to £100 per square metre.
The cost of high friction pedestrian surfaces varies based on factors such as materials, surface area, preparation work, and location.

Where are Anti-Skid Pedestrian Surfaces Typically Used?
Anti-skid pedestrian surfaces are essential for enhancing safety and preventing slips and falls in high-footfall areas. These surfaces provide high-friction, slip-resistant coatings, ensuring secure footing in all weather conditions.
Pedestrian Crossings: High-friction coatings improve grip, reducing the risk of slipping, especially in wet or icy conditions.
Pavements & Walkways: Anti-skid surfacing enhances safety in public paths, town centres, and shopping areas, preventing pedestrian accidents.
Bridges & Footbridges: Exposed surfaces on bridges can become slippery due to weather conditions; anti-skid treatments help improve traction.
Train Stations & Bus Stops: Transport hubs with high pedestrian traffic require slip-resistant surfaces to improve safety and accessibility.
Staircases & Ramps: Outdoor steps, ramps, and access points benefit from high-friction coatings, reducing the risk of falls.
Public Squares & Event Spaces: Areas with high foot traffic and diverse weather exposure need durable anti-skid surfacing to maintain safety.
Hospitals & Care Facilities: Ensuring safe walking surfaces in healthcare environments is crucial for patient and staff safety.
By applying high-friction, non-slip coatings, businesses, councils, and property managers can enhance public safety, reduce accident risks, and ensure compliance with UK accessibility regulations.
How do Anti-Skid Pedestrian Safety Surfaces Increase Accessibility?
Anti-skid pedestrian safety surfaces increase accessibility by providing a stable, slip-resistant walking surface, ensuring safe movement for people of all abilities.
These high-friction coatings reduce the risk of slips and falls, particularly for elderly individuals, wheelchair users, and those with mobility impairments.
By enhancing traction on pavements, ramps, crossings, and public walkways, anti-skid surfaces create a safer, more inclusive environment that meets UK accessibility regulations and improves overall pedestrian confidence.
How Long do Anti-Skid Pedestrian Safety Surfaces Last?
The lifespan of anti-skid pedestrian safety surfaces ranges from 8 to 15 years, depending on the materials used and the level of care.
To remain effective, anti-slip coatings may need to be reapplied on a regular basis.
With proper maintenance, pedestrian safety surfaces maintain their longevity, functionality, and visual appeal, making them a sound long-term investment.
