Slip resistant

Vynagrip slip resistant matting, manufactured in the UK by Plastic Extruders, has been extensively installed airside in the baggage handling area of George Best Belfast City Airport.

Significant growth has led to an increased workload in the baggage handling areas, where handlers spend prolonged periods of time working on concrete, which is frequently wet from rain due to the constant passage of the baggage trollies between the carousals and the aircraft. To improve comfort and safety underfoot, the airport management approached safety products specialist Arco who recommended anti-fatigue and slip resistant Vynagrip matting for the application. Scientific tests prove the matting not only reduces the stress and fatigue for workers standing on hard surfaces but its deeply etched surface achieves a high rating for slip resistant performance.
