How to safeguard entrance ramps and stairs for mobility-impaired?
To ensure the safety of the mobility impaired, anti-slip products should be installed on stairs to safeguard that the surface is not slippery and a danger to anyone entering the facility. To accommodate wheelchairs the entrance should have a ramp that also has anti-slip sheets, to avoid slipping hazards and provide more grip for the wheels.
Some anti-slip products have undergone tests to assess the risk of people slipping on the mat’s surface. The most common, legally recognized method involves the Pendulum Test, which measures the dynamic coefficient of friction. It provides a Pendulum Test Value (PTV) with the guidelines being:
- 0 – 24 – High Risk
- 25 – 35 – Moderate risk
- >36 – Low Risk

Cleaning & Maintenance of the COBAGRiP® Range
Once the product has been installed, ensure that the area is cleaned from any left-over glue, debris, and any other rubbish that might be laying around.
To maintain the effectiveness of the grit that provides slip resistance, the top surface must be kept clean. Individual circumstances will vary but, generally, a stiff hand brush and hot soapy water will achieve good results. Mild detergents can be used safely on the product, but it is advisable to test any cleaning products first. Where circumstances allow our fiberglass products can be power washed without causing harm. Care should be taken when the product has been stuck down and/or edge sealed as very high-pressure power washing or repeated power washing could cause damage to sealants and adhesives.
