Waterproof Grip Tape – AQS
Overview
Aqua safe anti slip tape is a standard non abrasive tape, suitable for areas exposed to water. Its plastic construction ensures dimensional stability, then the surface is embossed to create a texture to prevent slips. Manipulation during the production process gives it a rubber feel, meaning it is kind to bare skin.
Aqua Safe is the original non-abrasive waterproof anti slip tape, and the basis for many materials which followed. Aqua safe was the ideal solution for areas where abrasive anti slip materials could not be used, this could be in a place where the material could come into contact with bare skin often, or in a place where cleanliness is needed at all times like a kitchen or a laboratory. Abrasive materials are notoriously hard to clean, due to their peaks and troughs throughout the material, which makes them unsuitable for certain applications.
Aqua safe anti slip tape is a completely waterproof grip tape, allowing the material to be applied in areas where abrasive anti slip tape cannot, swimming pools, showers, baths and bathrooms, restaurant kitchens and more. When wet or dry, Aqua Safe waterproof grip tape has a CoF (Coefficient of Friction) which meets all standards, ensuring a strong grip. Due to this materials waterproof features, We decided to produce a special die-cut range of Aqua safe anti slip discs and strips, perfect for applications in baths and showers, this way, no material will be wasted, and the application is much easier as there is no need for measuring and cutting.
Please note: Aqua safe anti slip tape cannot be applied underwater, but can be submerged once it has been applied to a surface and has had time to cure.
