Slip-Resistant Solutions for Safer Workspaces and Staircases 

Slips, trips, and falls are among the most common workplace hazards in the UK—and staircases remain one of the highest-risk areas. Whether you’re managing a commercial building, public space, or industrial facility, stair safety must be a top priority. Not only is it a matter of health and safety compliance, but it also protects your employees, customers, and business reputation.

At Commercial Nosing UK, we specialise in slip-resistant stair nosing solutions designed to prevent accidents, comply with UK safety regulations, and extend the life of your staircases. Our mission is simple: make your space safer without compromising on durability or design.

Why Stair Safety Matters in the Workplace

Each year, thousands of injuries occur on stairs due to poor grip, inadequate lighting, or worn surfaces. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) reports that slips and trips are the leading cause of workplace injuries, often resulting in lost working days, injury claims, and even prosecutions.

In environments such as:

• Office buildings
• Warehouses and factories
• Hospitals and care homes
• Schools and universities
• Retail outlets
• Transport hubs and car parks

…stair safety cannot be overlooked.

Legal Obligations

If you operate or manage a facility in the UK, you’re legally required to take preventative action to ensure stair safety under:

• The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974
• The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992
• The Equality Act 2010
• Building Regulations Part K & Part M
• BS 8300-2:2018 for accessibility and inclusive design

Failing to meet these standards can result in serious legal and financial consequences.

What Are Slip-Resistant Stair Nosing Solutions?

Stair nosing refers to the front edge of a step, which is often the first point of contact during movement. Our anti-slip stair nosing products feature durable, high-grip inserts that significantly improve safety by:

• Providing extra traction underfoot
• Increasing visibility through contrasting colours
• Preventing stair edge erosion
• Helping meet accessibility regulations

We offer surface-mounted and rebated nosing, as well as heavy-duty solutions for high-traffic areas, in aluminium, PVC, rubber, and GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic).

Key Benefits of Anti-Slip Stair Nosing

1. Enhanced Safety and Accident Prevention

Anti-slip stair nosing greatly reduces the likelihood of slips and falls, especially in wet, oily, or dimly lit environments. For commercial premises, this is one of the simplest yet most effective safety upgrades.

2. Full Regulatory Compliance

Our stair nosing products help you meet BS 8300, DDA (Disability Discrimination Act), and Part M of Building Regulations—ensuring your facility is safe and accessible to all.

3. Durability and Cost Savings

By protecting stair edges from wear, nosing extends the life of your stairs and reduces maintenance costs over time.

4. Improved Visibility and Accessibility

Contrasting nosing makes stair edges easier to identify, especially for visually impaired users, helping your premises meet inclusive design requirements.

5. Custom Design Options

We offer a wide range of materials, finishes, and sizes to suit the interior and exterior of any building—whether you're upgrading a corporate office or retrofitting a warehouse.
