DOWNLOAD TECHNICAL DATA SHEETWaux VulcaGR!P® GRP stair nosings are fast, convenient way of providing solid, slip-resistant footing to existing stair edges with medium footfall and worn steps. Our VulcaGR!P® GRP Stair Nosings are fully AfA compliant and have undergone stringent anti-slip tests. Our GRP stair nosings are resistant to swelling, stretching, or warping over a wide range of temperatures and physical stresses. They are designed specifically to eliminate slip hazards in public, industrial and commercial spaces.
VulcaGR!P® GRP stair nosings are manufactured from three key components: a GRP Substrate (a profiled pultrusion), isophthalic polyester resin and silicon carbide grit. It is this coating process that lends the product its extremely high resistance to impact, abrasion, most common solvents, chemicals, acids, and hydrocarbons.
With a strong commitment to ethical sourcing, the GRP substrate is produced under license by a manufacturer accredited to BS EN ISO9002. The silicon carbide grit, that coats the surface of the VulcaGR!P® stair nosings, provides a long-life span, and is also produced under a manufacturer accredited to BS EN ISO9002.
- Cut and drilled to suit specific requirements to save install time on site.
- Fully compliant with AfA (Access for All) and DDA guidelines
- Lightweight, easy to install and low maintenance schedule.
- Pendulum anti-slip test results are in excess of 78 PTV in wet conditions
- Short lead times on all stock products, despatched for next working day delivery if ordered before 1pm.
Possible applications for VulcaGR!P® GRP stair nosings include:
- Pedestrian Footbridges
- Access Stairs
- Communal Staircases
- Site set ups (cabins)
- Fire escapes
- Oil, water, and chemical plants
The VulcaGR!P® stair tread range has been designed to meet the AfA/DDA requirements coupled with the HSE and Rail anti-slip standards, but can be used as a tread repair product, surface mounted. This gives many more years use to an existing stairway, giving longevity and medium to heavy use properties to the front of the step edge, where most of the impact will occur. With varying resin formulae, this product can be used in over ground or sub-surface areas.

All Stair edgings provide an essential vision and non-slip function, and it is vital that a regular cleaning and maintenance programme is executed to ensure these products work to the standard with which they have been installed.
Any build-up of dirt is detrimental to the effect of performance in vision and slip resistance and should be cleaned once a week to ensure maximum user confidence.
