Do You Need an Anti-Slip Treatment?
Not sure if anti-slip solutions are for you? Consider these scenarios where you might benefit:
Slippery when wet
If your floor tiles become extremely slick when water or soap is on them (common with polished porcelain or ceramic), that’s a prime candidate for anti-slip treatment. For instance, a tiled shower base or bathroom floor that causes you to “skate” when shampoo drips down is unsafe.
Household with elders or kids
Families with young children, elderly members, or anyone with mobility challenges should be proactive. Wet areas in homes – showers, tub surrounds, kitchens, entryways – can be treated to prevent dangerous falls.
Previous slip incidents
Perhaps you or a family member has already had a near-miss or an actual slip injury on your tiles. Don’t wait for a repeat – anti-slip coatings can greatly reduce the likelihood of another accident.
Commercial or strata properties
Do you manage an apartment building, gym, aged care facility, or any place with public foot traffic on tiled surfaces? You likely have a legal obligation to ensure floors are safe. Applying anti-slip treatments will help you meet Workplace Health & Safety requirements and keep users safe[67].
Outdoor tiles and pathways
Balconies, pool surrounds, and outdoor stairs often get wet from rain or pool water. These surfaces can be treacherous if untreated. An anti-slip solution can increase friction on everything from natural stone pavers to glazed outdoor tiles, without drastically changing their appearance.
If any of these situations apply, it’s worth investing in slip prevention. It only takes one bad fall to realize the floor was too slick – Megasealed can help you be proactive instead of reactive.
How Megagrip™ Anti-Slip Treatment Works
Megasealed uses Megagrip™, our proprietary anti-slip system, to treat surfaces. This system includes three levels of treatment we can choose from based on your needs:
Chemical Etchant (Medium Anti-Slip)
This treatment involves a controlled etching of the tile surface. Don’t worry – it’s not visible gouges or anything extreme. It microscopically textures the tile, leaving a satin finish that increases grip. It’s a great choice for polished tiles where you want to maintain the look but just make them less slippery.
Megagrip™ Standard (High Anti-Slip)
A clear coating applied to the tiles that adds a high level of slip resistance. It’s often used in renovation scenarios or new constructions in wet areas like showers and bathrooms. This coating is durable and designed for barefoot and footwear traffic, making floors noticeably safer when wet.
Megagrip™ Heavy Duty (Very High Anti-Slip)
This is a more robust application for areas like steps, ramps, or high-risk floors. It provides the greatest improvement in traction[. Even with its heavy-duty nature, it still keeps the surface looking good – no ugly strips or rough abrasives, just an effective clear treatment.
All our anti-slip treatments are CSIRO tested (scientifically verified) to meet safety standards, so you can trust that the claims are backed by data. The process of application is quick: we clean the surface, apply the chosen Megagrip solution, let it cure, and that’s it! Most areas can be used within 24–48 hours after treatment, minimizing downtime.
Megagrip™ can be applied on a variety of materials – ceramic and porcelain tile, natural stones like marble, granite, slate, terrazzo, etc. Virtually any mineral flooring that needs slip resistance, we have a solution for it.
Advantages of Megasealed’s Anti-Slip Solutions
Megagrip™ boosts grip while remaining discreet, is CSIRO-tested for performance, and is tough enough for busy households and commercial spaces, all with minimal disruption and no need to replace your tiles.
Enhance Safety
First and foremost, you are creating a safer environment. Our treatments significantly increase the coefficient of friction on the floor, meaning feet (or shoes) grip better and are far less likely to slide. This is proven to reduce slip incidents and injuries.
Invisible Protection
Worried about how your beautiful tiles will look? Fear not. Megagrip treatments are designed to be either invisible or very subtle. There’s no ugly tape or rubber mats; your tiles retain their original look and charm, just with a new safety feature built-in.
Long-Lasting & Low Maintenance
Megagrip coatings are not a temporary fix – they are durable and meant for long-term use, even in commercial settings. They require no special maintenance beyond normal cleaning. In fact, all our anti-slip solutions come with a 5-year product warranty to give you confidence in their longevity.
Fast Installation
The application process is quick and done by our trained technicians. There’s minimal disruption to your home or business. We schedule a time, treat the floors, and you’ll have full use of the area back usually by the next day or so. It’s a simple upgrade that can prevent major accidents.
Compliance and Peace of Mind
For businesses and strata, using our solutions helps ensure you meet safety regulations (like anti-slip requirements for ramps and walkways). Even for homeowners, it’s peace of mind – you’ve taken a smart step to protect your loved ones. Think of it as an insurance policy you apply to the floor itself.
