This application forms part of our complete guide to anti-slip tape applications , covering domestic, commercial, industrial, and outdoor environments. Anti-slip tape is commonly used on steps, staircases, platforms, and raised walkways where smooth, worn, wet, or contaminated surfaces increase the risk of slips and falls. Applying a high-traction surface significantly improves pedestrian safety while reducing accidents in both indoor and outdoor locations. Grit-based anti-slip tape offers excellent slip resistance and is particularly effective on stairwells, access platforms, mezzanines, and other high-traffic pedestrian areas. It delivers instant grip on metal, concrete, wood, painted surfaces, and sealed flooring. For locations that require high visibility and clear visual guidance, such as stair edges, landings, and designated access routes, we recommend Premier Grade Coloured Anti-Slip Tape (18m) . This tape provides strong slip resistance while clearly highlighting changes in level and walking routes. Where surfaces are uneven, textured, or irregular — including checker plate, metal stairs, or rough concrete — Conformable Anti-Slip Tape (18m) is recommended. It moulds securely to contoured surfaces while maintaining durable, long-lasting traction underfoot. In low-light environments or emergency egress routes, Glow-in-the-Dark Anti-Slip Tape (18m) is ideal for stairs, steps, platforms, and walkways where visibility is critical. The photoluminescent surface absorbs ambient light and glows in darkness, helping guide safe movement during power outages while providing a high-traction, slip-resistant walking surface.Anti-Slip Tape for Steps, Stairs & Platforms
