GRATING WORLD FLOOREX® raised pattern non-slip solid floor plate bears the distinctive and registered “boomerang” design, versus the leaf or lozenge patterns of other solid floor plate. In comparative tests, FLOOREX® demonstrated superior co-efficient of friction (skid resistance) over regular checker plate in dry, wet and oily conditions.
FLOOREX® is available in sheet sizes of 1250mm x 3000mm and 1250mm x 2500mm, as well as custom sizes. Nominal thicknesses are 2.0mm, 3.0mm and 4.5mm.
FLOOREX® is available in Stainless Steel (3CR12, 304, 316). Stainless Steel surface finishes are No.1, 2B, and shot blast.
FLOOREX® advantages are non-slip, strong and rigid, corrosion resistant, easy to clean, low maintenance, eye-catching, and hygienic.
FLOOREX® applications include flooring (factories, loading ramps, elevators, escalator approaches), stairtreads, kickplates, and protective fascias.
