To help reduce the risk of slips, trips and falls, GXT11 and GXT51 from Gradus’ market-leading XT range of stair edgings have been installed on the staircases at Humber Enterprise Park, an 86-acre site in Brough, East Yorkshire.

XT stair edgings feature an extended slip-resistant insert at the leading edge of the profile to increase underfoot contact with the slip resistant element of the stair edging. Selected with Clay standard interior inserts, the stair edgings define the step edge by providing a suitable colour contrast with the carpet, in line with BS 8300:2009+A1:2010 and Approved Document M of The Building Regulations 2010.

The stair edgings were installed using Gradus Grip, a solvent free rapid curing flexible adhesive with excellent gap filling properties that is suitable for bonding stair edgings to most solid surfaces in internal and external environments. Gradus Grip offers quick and easy installation with a 10 year warranty and no more screw head cover plugs for improved aesthetics and easier maintenance.

Streetwise Originals carpet tiles have been installed in the corridors and on the staircases and Lafite Connect Space carpet tiles have been installed in the offices. Streetwise features an attractive textured loop pile design and is designed to be randomly installed offering creative versatility. Lafite Connect features a range of complementary designs (Plains, Stripes, Design and Space) that can work together to create interesting and contemporary floor schemes.

Primary barrier matting from the Esplanade range has been installed to the main entrance helping to reduce the amount of tracked-in dirt and moisture and prolong the lifecycle of the surrounding floorcovering whilst reducing the risk of slips and trips caused by wet flooring.
