In the world of construction and renovation, the choice of flooring is key not only for its aesthetics, but also for its functionality and safety. Non-slip flooring has become an essential solution for spaces where the risk of slips or falls is high, guaranteeing a safe surface without sacrificing design or resistance.
Whether for high-traffic areas, sports facilities, outdoor or indoor spaces exposed to moisture, slip-resistant flooring offers the perfect balance of safety, easy maintenance and resistance to the most demanding conditions.
Main benefits:
- Accident prevention. Significant reduction of the risk of falls in wet or high traffic areas.
- Increased durability: Resistant to wear, impact and adverse weather conditions.
- Easy maintenance: Surfaces easy to clean and keep in optimal conditions.
- Aesthetic versatility: Wide variety of finishes, colors and textures to adapt to every architectural style.
- Regulatory compliance: Designed according to current safety standards and regulations.
Types of anti-slip floors
There are different materials and finishes that offer anti-slip properties. The most commonly used are:
- Non-slip ceramic tiles
Ideal for terraces and patios. Resistant to humidity and with varied decorative finishes. - Printed concrete pavements
Versatile, resistant and customizable in color and texture. Perfect for accesses, garages and walkways. - Continuous resin or microcement pavements
They offer a modern, continuous and easy to clean finish. Suitable for terraces and covered areas. - Natural stone
Rustic and durable. Used in gardens, paths and natural environments. - Rubber or composite surfacing
Ideal for playgrounds and sports areas due to its cushioning properties.
Most common applications of anti-slip floor coverings
In industrial environments
In factories, workshops and warehouses, occupational safety is a priority. Slip-resistant flooring withstands heavy loads, chemicals and constant traffic, minimizing risks to workers and machinery.
In commercial spaces
Shopping malls, supermarkets and stores require floors that maintain an impeccable appearance despite the high flow of people. A slip-resistant finish prevents accidents and conveys confidence to customers.
In outdoor areas
Terraces, sidewalks, driveways and swimming pools need surfaces that offer grip even on rainy days. Pavicret finishes are designed to withstand changes in temperature, humidity and sun exposure.
In sports and leisure facilities
Courts, gyms and spas require safe, comfortable and wear-resistant flooring for intensive use. Our systems combine cushioning and slip resistance for optimal performance.
Products for anti-slip floors
To achieve a safe and durable finish, in addition to choosing the base material, it is essential to have specific anti-slip treatments and coatings:
- Anti-slip varnishes and sealants.
- Mortars and self-leveling with high adherence aggregates.
- Floor paints with anti-slip additives.
- Microcement systems formulated for exteriors.
How to choose the right anti-slip floor covering
Choosing the right flooring depends on several factors:
- Location: Indoors, outdoors, wet or dry area.
- Transit level: Spaces of occasional or continuous use.
- Style and finish desired: Textures, colors and formats.
- Technical requirements: Mechanical, chemical or thermal resistance.
At Pavicret, we advise each client to select the most appropriate system according to the needs of the project, ensuring a functional and durable result.
Innovation and quality in Pavicret anti-slip floor coverings
At Pavicret, our systems combine advanced technologies with high quality materials to ensure a safe surface without sacrificing aesthetics or durability. This allows architects, designers and builders to incorporate safe solutions into any project without compromising the final image of the space.
