What is Safety Flooring?

Safety flooring is a type of flooring that is designed to reduce the risk of injuries from slips, falls, and other accidents. You most commonly see it used in public buildings, schools, hospitals, and office buildings with high foot traffic. 

Types of Safety Flooring 

Safety flooring often has a rougher or textured surface to provide extra traction and is made from materials like rubber or vinyl. It’s typically installed in areas with a higher risk of slips and falls, like bathrooms, commercial spaces, or stairs.

Anti-Slip Flooring:

This type of flooring has a rough or textured surface to provide extra traction and reduce the risk of slips and falls. It is often made from rubber or vinyl, and you commonly see it used in wet areas.

Non-Slip Flooring:

This type of flooring is similar to anti-slip but may have a smoother surface and be made from materials like ceramic tile or linoleum. It is often used in areas with a moderate risk of slips and falls, such as in hallways or other high-traffic areas, and allows easy cleaning.

Hygienic Flooring:

This type of flooring is designed to be easy to clean and maintain. It is often antibacterial, which is important in areas like commercial kitchen environments, where spills and stains are common or hospitals, where cleanliness is very important. Materials like vinyl, rubber, and epoxy can be easily wiped down and mopped, making them ideal for such areas.

Impact-Resistant Flooring:

This type of flooring is designed to absorb the impact of falls and reduce the risk of injury. It is often made from materials like rubber or foam and may have a cushioned or padded surface. It is commonly used in areas where there is a high risk of falls, such as in playgrounds or sports facilities.

How Much Does Safety Flooring Cost?

As standard, the supply and fit of our safety flooring can cost between £36 per sqm (+VAT) for flat lay and £48.50 per sqm (+VAT) for cap and cove.  

Our flooring calculator provides rapid project costs for your safety flooring installation. These indicative prices are based on the following options:

Flat Lay Safety Flooring

This type of safety flooring is installed across the floor; it does not fit up the wall. Designed for functionality, it offers PVT ≥36 slip resistance for your peace of mind. We offer this in a variety of colours and with a 5 year guarantee.

Cap and Cove Safety Flooring

By comparison, cap and cove safety flooring is fitted ever so slightly up the walls. This makes it a great option for showers and wet rooms. Our cap and cove flooring options have a PTV ≥50 slip resistance and 10 year guarantee. 

The Benefits of Safety Flooring

There are multiple benefits to investing in safety flooring.

• Slip Resistance: Slip resistance is a huge benefit of safety flooring, decreasing risks of accidents occurring with spillages from food, drink, water, or grease falling onto the floor. 
• Easy to Clean: Safety flooring is low maintenance and requires minimal cleaning effort. It’s designed to ensure no spillages are absorbed, so you can mop it up quickly without much effort, and, more importantly, it remains hygienic. 
• Smooth & Comfortable Underfoot: With its smooth surface, safety flooring is a popular choice for environments where people are on their feet for most of the day. It provides an even surface underfoot and makes it less likely for anyone to trip or fall while walking from A to B.
