Our solutions to improve the safety of your premises

Statistics show slips and trips are the single most common cause of major injury in UK workplaces and they are often the initiators of accidents attributed to other causes, such as machinery accidents and falls from height. According to the latest Health and Safety (HSE) statistics, slips, trips or falls on same level was the most common reported non-fatal accident across all industry sectors, representing 31% of all non-fatal workplace accidents. So, health and safety issues can be damaging in more ways than one.

That's why Watco is here to help you make your premises safer with our anti slip and line marking solutions that comply with the latest legal standards.



How can Watco help you improve the safety of your premises?

Preventing falls

Our anti slip floor coverings allow you to improve the safety of your floors to prevent falls and trips.

Step safety

Our GRP products are the best solution to guarantee safety, even on steps.

Highlight dangerous areas

Our line marking solutions create the visual contrast needed to signal hazardous areas.

Anti Slip Safety

Floor safety regulations recommend testing your floor for slip resistance. A pendulum test value (PTV) can help ensure you're providing a safe floor surface for your employees and visitors. Depending on the area, it may be important to have a anti slip finish, for example, on steps or ramps that often become wet or slippery.

Watco anti-slip floor paints have been tested with a PTV (Pendulum Test Value) greater than 36, which guarantees a low risk of slipping for the safety of your premises.

Safety on steps and ramps

Floor safety regulations state a slip resistant surface finish should be considered for each step, to reduce the risk of trips and falls. Watco's step covers are extremely hard wearing and offer excellent slip resistance. They are available in a range of colours to ensure a clear contrast to make stairs safer.

Highlight dangerous areas

Floor safety regulations require all public buildings and workplaces to ensure safe entry, exit and safe passage throughout the building. 

Watco's floor coatings are available in a range of colours and can be used to create the visual contrast for easy navigation, while also brightening up your space.
