Non-Slip Concrete Floor Coating: Enhancing Safety For Childcare Centre

Ensuring child health and safety is a top priority for Early Learning Centres. When the play garden at Discovery Childcare became dangerously slippery in wet conditions, Stellmann Non-Slip provided a reliable solution. Our non-slip concrete floor coating not only enhanced safety but also delivered a vibrant, durable yellow finish that brightens the pathway.

Discovery Childcare in Croydon is dedicated to providing a safe, inspiring environment for children to grow, learn, and play. The front play garden, a favourite spot for the kids, features a concrete footpath where running and games are part of daily fun. However, the previous yellow coating on this path posed a significant safety risk. Without slip-resistant properties, the surface became dangerously slippery during wet weather, increasing the potential for falls and injuries.

To address this issue, Discovery Childcare turned to Stellmann Aqualine PU PRO in Traffic Yellow. Our certified applicator, Floor Compliance Solutions, professionally ground down the old coating to prepare the surface. This crucial step ensured optimal adhesion, setting the foundation for a durable, high-performance result.

Non-Slip Concrete Floor Coating

Stellmann Aqualine PU PRO is specifically developed to create CSIRO-certified non-slip floors. The concrete floor coating is available with a wide range of slip-ratings, combining safety and compliance with easy maintenance and durability. At Discovery Childcare, our P4 slip-rating was installed to make sure the area is compliant with the Australian Standard for Slip-Resistance (AS 4663-2013). This transformation provides peace of mind for staff and parents alike.

Besides slip-resistance, our coating is the perfect solution due to the UV-resistant and non-fading formulation. This keeps the Traffic Yellow colour vibrant and fresh, even under harsh Australian sun. This durability enhances both safety and visual appeal, ensuring the footpath looks great for years.

Furthermore, Aqualine PU Pro is a VOC-free, water-based system, making it safer for the applicator and kinder to the environment. By reducing harmful emissions, the product supports sustainable practices while maintaining top-tier performance.

Expert Application for Long-Term Results

The installation was expertly handled by Floor Compliance Solutions, one of Stellmann Coatings’ certified applicators. Their attention to detail and adherence to best practices ensured the new coating would stand the test of time, even in a high-traffic area like the play garden.

Awel, Managing Director at Floor Compliance Solutions, shared his experience with Stellmann Coatings:

“I enjoy working with Stellmann’s coatings because they provide superior slip resistance and outperform common coatings in ease of application, durability, and safety.”

By selecting Stellmann Aqualine PU Pro, Discovery Childcare has invested in a safe, sustainable, and visually appealing solution. This upgrade aligns with their commitment to creating a nurturing, secure environment where children can explore and play freely.
