THE REAL RISK
The Slip Risk in Aquatic Centres & Wet Recreation Facilities
Aquatic Centres & Wet Recreation Facilities environments present specific slip hazards that generic treatments can’t adequately address. Industry-specific contaminants, traffic patterns, cleaning regimes, and compliance requirements demand a purpose-built solution.
Patron slips on wet tiles walking from communal shower to change room
Fractured wrist. Facility faces public liability claim and council investigation.
Aquatic centre fails P5 wet barefoot compliance audit
Amenities block closed until remediation. Revenue loss and reputational damage.
Standard anti-slip coating degrades within 8 months from chlorine exposure
Facility must retreat at additional cost and disruption.
➝
Every one of these scenarios is preventable with certified anti-slip treatment from Stellmann, backed by our Slip-Test Pass Guarantee.
Trusted by leading brands, builders & care facilities
Why Stellmann for Aquatic Centres & Wet Recreation Facilities vs Alternatives
Most anti-slip products used in aquatic centres & wet recreation facilities environments are generic, designed for standard conditions, not for the specific contaminants, cleaning regimes, and traffic patterns your facility faces. They degrade rapidly, requiring frequent re-application and creating compliance gaps between treatments.
Stellmann’s coating is purpose-built for commercial and industrial environments. Our dual-component polyurethane formula bonds to surfaces without acid etching, preserving your existing floors while delivering certified slip resistance that withstands aquatic centres & wet recreation facilities-specific conditions. P5 wet barefoot rated coatings that maintain aesthetics while delivering certified slip resistance in change rooms and wet amenities, no facility downtime required
The result: documented compliance, reduced liability, a Slip-Test Pass Guarantee, and performance that lasts years, not months.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Questions Aquatic Facility Managers Ask
Straight answers from people who've treated aquatic environments across Australia.
Will Stellmann’s coating withstand the conditions in our aquatic centres & wet recreation facilities facility?
Yes. Stellmann’s coating is CSIRO-certified and engineered for commercial and industrial environments. It withstands the specific contaminants, cleaning chemicals, traffic patterns, and environmental conditions found in aquatic centres & wet recreation facilities facilities. Our Slip-Test Pass Guarantee means if your floors don’t pass a certified slip test, we retreat at no cost.
Do we need to shut down our facility for installation?
No. Stellmann’s technicians work around your operating schedule - overnight, between shifts, during maintenance windows, or on weekends. Most areas are walk-ready within hours of application. Your aquatic centres & wet recreation facilities facility stays operational throughout the entire process.
What compliance documentation do we receive?
Every treated surface receives a formal Nata accredited, P-rating compliance certificate to AS 4586. This documentation satisfies insurers, WorkCover auditors, food safety inspectors, and WHS regulators. We also provide maintenance guides and warranty documentation for your compliance records.
How long does the coating last in aquatic centres & wet recreation facilities environments?
Stellmann’s coating is engineered for multi-year performance in commercial environments, significantly outlasting acid-based treatments that typically degrade within 6–12 months. Exact lifespan depends on traffic volume, cleaning frequency, and environmental conditions. We provide maintenance guidance to maximise longevity.
What’s the Slip-Test Pass Guarantee?
If your treated surfaces don’t pass a certified slip test to the P-rating we agree upon before treatment, we retreat at no additional cost. This guarantee eliminates your risk and ensures documented compliance.
How is Stellmann different from acid etching or standard anti-slip products?
Acid etching chemically attacks your surfaces to create texture, permanently damaging finishes and degrading within months, especially in demanding aquatic centres & wet recreation facilities environments. Stellmann’s dual-component polyurethane coating bonds to surfaces without damage, preserving appearance and delivering certified slip resistance that lasts years. P5 wet barefoot rated coatings that maintain aesthetics while delivering certified slip resistance in change rooms and wet amenities, no facility downtime required
