SLIP-RESISTANT SOLUTIONS FOR THE
Utilities Industry
Utility providers and key decision-makers for utility infrastructure requirements have an obligation to ensure public and worker safety. Weather, traffic, corrosion, and time can make standard utility surfaces slippery. Finding a high-traction surface solution to these issues significantly reduces safety, compliance, and liability risks.
SLIPNOT® provides state engineers and planners with practical, long-term protection. When large-scale utility projects need preventive measures that last, our specialized coatings and slip-resistant surface technologies succeed.

The Trust Cost of a Single Slip
In addition to the potential for serious injury, one slip can lead to a wide range of direct and indirect issues, including:
- Losing the trust of the public due to appearing negligent of the safety of pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists.
- Experiencing financial penalties, legal costs, medical bills, and lost work hours that directly impact your bottom line.
- Being subject to litigation that can take years to be resolved, which impacts productivity and organizational focus.
- Seeing a drastic increase in insurance premiums due to high safety risks and subsequent legal claims.
That doesn’t include any reputational damage you may incur, such as loss of future work and poor public perception.
Unmatched Safety for Critical Utilities Industry Applications
The proven performance and long-lasting wear of our utility applications offer superior protection. Our solutions reduce risks to pedestrians, vehicles, emergency service responders, utility workers, and construction crews via:
- Manhole covers: Slip-resistant manhole cover coating maintains its quality in all weather.
- Pullbox and vault covers: Anti-slip pullbox covers and slip-resistant vault covers to provide safe access to underground infrastructures.
- Tree grates: Anti-slip tree grate coating to enhance public safety and protect municipal liability.
- Sidewalk grates: Slip-resistant sidewalk grates to cover pavement openings and support ventilation.
- Ladders: Secure slip-resistant ladders to prevent slipping while descending or climbing.
Our slip-resistant surfaces are factory-applied by a team of experts. They are then shipped out ready for installation to reduce on-site labor and increase operational uptime. This streamlined approach, combined with our range of grates and nonskid vault cover coating, makes it a strong investment in long-term repairs and replacements.
Making a quality decision today offers safety and predictability for decades, which we embrace as a partner to meet our clients’ needs.
A Long-Term Solution to Surface Failure
Transport departments require solutions that are long-lasting, low-maintenance, and nonslip. SLIPNOT® products use a patented process to address surface degradation. The result is a file-hard, bonded metallic surface that doesn’t wear down.
This is a crucial part of safety and compliance. Especially when compared to other standard offerings. While diamond plates polish smoothly and anti-slip paints can flake away, our one-time installation solutions are durable. Our products are created in the USA and remain safe long after other alternatives wear smooth.
