Workplace safety starts from the ground up. Slips, trips, and falls are among the most common workplace accidents, and one of the easiest ways to prevent them is by clearly marking safe pedestrian routes. To make this process faster, cleaner, and longer-lasting, Heskins developed the Anti-Slip Walkway – a durable, peel-and-stick solution that improves safety with minimal downtime.
What Is the Anti-Slip Walkway?
The Heskins Anti-Slip Walkway is a self-adhesive, pre-formed walkway roll designed to provide both clear visual guidance and exceptional underfoot traction. Unlike painted walkways, which require multiple coats and drying time, Heskins’ walkway can be applied in minutes and used immediately.
Each roll features a tough, abrasive surface that helps prevent slips in wet, oily, or dusty conditions. The standard design includes a green base with yellow “walking man” symbols spaced along the length of the roll, giving workers an instantly recognizable route to follow.
A Smarter Alternative to Painted Walkways
Traditional painted walkways can take days to complete, often requiring masking, multiple coats, and significant drying time before reopening the area. Over time, paint fades, chips, or becomes slippery, especially in high-traffic zones.
Heskins’ Anti-Slip Walkway solves these problems. It arrives ready to apply – simply clean the surface, peel back the liner, and stick it down. The strong adhesive backing ensures a secure bond, even on concrete or sealed floors, providing a tough, long-lasting finish.
This means less downtime, fewer maintenance requirements, and a professional appearance that enhances safety and efficiency.
Virtually Unlimited Color Combinations
While the standard walkway design features a green background with yellow icons, Heskins can, dependent on order quantity, create a wide range of virtually unlimited color combinations to suit your brand or workplace.
This flexibility allows businesses to coordinate walkway colors with their safety systems, floor markings, or corporate branding – improving both visibility and consistency throughout their facility. No matter the color combination chosen, every walkway retains the same exceptional durability, adhesive strength, and slip resistance that Heskins products are known for.
Where to Use Anti-Slip Walkways
The Anti-Slip Walkway is ideal for a wide range of environments, including:
- Factories and warehouses- separate pedestrian paths from vehicle traffic.
- Loading bays and logistics centers- define safe routes across busy areas.
- Production lines- guide employees safely between workstations.
- Outdoor areas- handle rain, frost, and dirt without losing grip.
The combination of high visibility and strong traction makes these walkways particularly useful in industrial environments where floor safety is critical.
Easy Installation
Installing a Heskins walkway couldn’t be easier:
- Clean the floor to remove dust, oil, and debris.
- Peel off the backing liner gradually.
- Press the walkway firmly into place, smoothing out air bubbles.
- Apply at temperatures above 50°F (10°C) for best results.
Once installed, the walkway is ready for immediate use and requires little ongoing maintenance beyond regular cleaning.
