Anti-slip Solutions for Stairs

Reduce the Risk of Slips, Trips and Falls

Slips, trips and falls on stairs are one of the most common causes of injury in homes, workplaces and public spaces. According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW), 17,039 people were hospitalised in Australia during 2023-24 after falling on or from stairs and steps. Fractures were the most common injury.

Safe Work Australia’s Key Work Health and Safety Statistics Australia 2025 report shows that falls remain a major workplace hazard. During 2023-24, there were around 32,000 serious workplace injury claims. Of these, 7,808 claims (24.4%) were linked to falls from heights, including falls on stairs and steps.

These figures highlight the importance of effective stair safety measures. Antislip stair nosing help reduce slips on stairs.  Property owners, facility managers and employers all have a responsibility to reduce the risk of slips and falls.

Improve Stair Safety in Any Environment

Stairs can become dangerous when surfaces are wet, dirty, oily or exposed to harsh weather. Materials such as grating, checker plate, metal, timber and concrete can all become slippery under certain conditions.

SafeMate non-slip stair nosing and stair capping are designed to improve grip and increase safety on both indoor and outdoor stairs. By providing extra traction at the front edge of each step, they help reduce the risk of slips, trips and falls.

SafeMate stair nosing is manufactured using high-quality materials and proven anti-slip technology. It is designed to perform in demanding environments, including areas exposed to heavy foot traffic, harsh weather, UV radiation and industrial conditions.
