Food facility replaces diamond plate with SLIPNOT aluminum plates

A farmer-owned cooperative founded 1924 that ensures that its products are harvested and processed locally, contacted SLIPNOT to provide a safe solution to replace several areas of diamond plate at a food processing facility. The diamond plate was not providing adequate slip resistance, especially when wet.

After review specifications, SLIPNOT provided (19) 60” x 120” x ¼” thick aluminum plates with SLIPNOT Grade 2 aluminum for slip resistance. The plates were then custom cut and installed throughout the facility, including on raised walkways and work platforms.

The areas were the SLIPNOT aluminum plates were installed see frequent water spills, leading to occasional standing water and dangerous conditions. The conditions were even more dangerous on diamond plate, as it does not meet OSHA regulations when wet. However, SLIPNOT exceeds those regulations, wet or dry, ensuring all employees have the necessary slip resistance to keep them safe on the job.

After replacing sections of diamond plate with SLIPNOT aluminum, the facility no longer has to worry about the safety of employees. The aluminum is not only durable, but corrosion and rust resistant, meaning it will protect workers for years to come.
