Purdue includes safety and aesthetics in Gateway renovations
- The Situation
Founded in 1869, a Big 10 university in Indiana offers undergraduate and graduate programs in 200+ major areas of study and is known for its engineering programs.
The university planned nearly two dozen gateway updates to be executed in time for its 150th anniversary. At one of the busiest entries to the campus, the plazas were designed to give thousands of student, faculty and visitor pedestrians more room to maneuver at street corners. The university team wanted to ensure that these walkways were slip resistant.
- The Solution
Specialty flooring designers, Creative Edge had partnered with SLIPNOT on another famous public project in Times Square (Spotlight on Broadway).
The university had similar specifications, aesthetics and safety requirements and Creative Edge contacted SLIPNOT for another custom application.
Our slip and fall prevent experts recommended Grade 2 stainless steel SLIPNOT coating technology be applied to the precut stainless steel letters that were sent to SLIPNOT by the designer. Stainless steel ensured that the inlayed letters withstand harsh weather elements like rain and snow due to natural corrosion resistant properties.
- The Impact
The custom designed, slip resistant gateway provides safety and aesthetic beauty. The university and students will benefit from SLIPNOT’s duality for decades to come.
