Karly, from Little Sticks Building deserves every one of the five stars I have given her. For communication...she has very pleasant phone manner, made me feel comfortable then followed by making arrangements. Promptness - she arrived on time. She did a great job...the floor has gone from "glass" like slippery to a safe surface. What appeared to be a small problem was fixed without hesitation. I would definitely recommend Karly

I am so happy with my new floor. My big dog slipped on our slippery tile floor before and now she is no longer afraid walking around in the house anymore. The swiss grip guy did a fabulous job for us. The team was very friendly and professional. I am highly recommends this product. Thank you!

Can't talk more highly of this product. We had non slip clear coat installed on our front entranceway in the shower and around the pool area... apart from feeling a lot safe and not slipping, you can hardly even see that the product on the surface or feel it underfoot. A+ very happy

This product and the installer Dennis is amazing! 10/10 gold. I have no affiliation with this company or the installer. I had my shower and bathroom floor along with my external bluestones done today. Dennis was brilliant. Professional, punctual, kept me posted about arrival time. NO NEGATIVES AT ALL. Brilliant old fashioned customer service. I'm over the moon with the results.. Thank you for a brilliant product and installer.

We've had many safe and satisfied clients thanks to Stellmann's non-slip coatings. Their systems are not only highly slip-resistant but also extremely durable, perfect for both elderly and NDIS-aged care facilities, as well as high-traffic public environments. Safety is paramount to us, and that's why we choose to install Stellmann's versatile coatings. Their team is knowledgeable, supportive, and always ready to assist with technical guidance when needed. A reliable partner for any floor safety project.

We've installed Stellmann's non-slip coating in dozens of homes, and every time the result is the same: safer, more confident clients. Whether it's bathrooms, steps, or entries, people instantly feel the difference. One customer told us her mum now walks through the bathroom without fear of slipping. That's why we use Stellmann, because the product performs, and the results change lives.

Karly applied a non-slip coating on our verandah tiles and bathroom tiled floor. I have really noticed the difference between the original tiles and after the coating was applied. Being unsteady on my feet it made feel safer whilst walking on the tiles. Karly was punctual, professional and pleasant in her attitude regarding the application. I would certainly recommend an application of Sellmann products and application.

The industry problem

Three ways tradies handle non-slip.
Two of them cost you.

The client expects the floor safe when wet. Maybe AS 4586 compliant. AS 4586 is the Australian Standard that scores a floor's grip when wet, from P0 to P5. If the floor fails later, the callback comes to you. Watch how the three usual options play out, and which one protects your name, your margin and your client.

Video not loading? Watch it here.

Option 1

The hardware store bucket

One-size-fits-all tin. You guess the prep, guess the coverage, and hope it does not peel, stain or fail the slip test. If it fails, the redo and the reputation hit are yours.

Option 2

Outsource the scope

Hand the job to a specialist. You lose the margin and the control, but your name is still on the project when something goes wrong.

Option 3

Run it as a system

A Stellmann PRO kit matched to this exact job. CSIRO tested coating, AS 4586 paperwork, and a specialist on the phone while you install. You keep the scope and the profit.

One failed slip test costs more than every kit you will buy this year.

How it works

From "these tiles are slippery" to job done

1

Tell us the job

Call 1300 987 095 or send the 60 second form. Surface, square metres, where it gets wet.

2

We match the kit

Coating, primer and P3, P4 or P5 rating matched to your surface and wet area. Not one bucket fits all.

3

You install, tech on call

Plain English plan: prep, mask, mix, roll, cure. If anything looks off, call the tech line with photos and fix it on the spot.

4

Job logged to your name

We record the site and system under your business. Re-coats and extra areas on that site route back to you first.

Know your ratings

Which rating does the room need?

You don't guess the rating. HB 198:2014 maps every scope to a minimum P-rating under AS 4586 wet pendulum testing. The short version:

RatingWhere it applies
P3 Dry commercial and residential: lobbies, offices, residential bathrooms, undercover car parks
P4 Wet rooms, outdoor walkways, balconies, driveways, wet stair treads
P5 Commercial kitchens, ramps steeper than 1:14, change rooms, pool surrounds

Quick reference only. We confirm the exact rating for your scope against the full HB 198 tables before you order, and the paperwork comes with the kit.

What does your hour go for now?

Most trade businesses run 21 to 30 percent gross margins (Australian Tradies Market Report, ServiceTitan 2025). Well-quoted non-slip work runs far ahead of that, and one job covers the kit.

The old way vs the Stellmann way

Clear coating vs acid etching

Acid etching is the old fix: acid gets mopped over the tile and eats tiny pits into the glaze. The grip comes from damaging the surface, and that damage is permanent.

Acid etching

  • Grips by eating pits into the glaze
  • Dulls and patches the tile, and it can't be undone
  • Harsh acid and fumes on site
  • No slip rating out of the bucket
  • If it goes wrong: regrind or replace the tiles

Stellmann clear coating

  • Grips with a clear textured coating on top
  • Keeps the original look, tile stays intact underneath
  • Water based, low odour
  • P3 to P5 under AS 4586, paperwork included
  • If anything looks off: tech line and the Install Support Promise

You're not a test dummy

Backed two ways

Install Support Promise

Use the bundle as specced, follow the plan, and stay in touch with the tech line on install day. If anything is off, we work with you until the system is down properly and the client is satisfied from a non-slip point of view.

Pass the slip test, or we keep working*

Installed as specified, the floor meets its target P-rating at the time of testing. If it doesn't, we work with you until it does. Under written conditions.

*When installed and maintained as specified. Slip resistance is a process, not a one-time fix: floors still need scheduled cleaning and re-testing over their life. The 5 Year Adhesion Warranty also applies: if the coating peels or lifts under normal use within 5 years, we supply replacement product under our published terms. Read the full terms.

Why Stellmann

Built for pros who keep control

  • Job-matched system, not one bucket fits all
  • CSIRO tested, with AS 4586 documentation for your client
  • EU made coatings, clear finish that keeps the original look
  • Live install support from someone who knows the product
  • Project logging, so future work on that site comes back to you
  • Walk on most floors the same day, typically 8 to 12 hours cure
New to non-slip?

The scope most tradies sub out or walk past

Insurers, strata committees and facility managers now want slip-test paperwork. The tradie already on site is first in line for that work.

Most don't know it pays like this. Real jobs by Stellmann Certified Installers in 2026, on partner pricing:

NDIS bathroom$1,131gross profit before labour · 6 sqm · 2 to 3 hrs onsite
Cafe kitchen$2,200gross profit before labour · 80 sqm · 1 day, 2-person crew
One or two a month$2–10kper month extra profit for installers who follow the system

Figures ex GST and before your labour, the pool that pays you, any helper and your overhead.

“Anti-slip is now around 20 percent of our turnover.”

▶ Hit play. 26 seconds of Adam, installer, on how anti-slip went from a sideline to “some weeks, all anti-slip”. Worth it before you quote your next wet area.

No special licence. If you can prep a surface and roll paint, the kit, the plan and the tech line cover the rest.

FAQ

My job is only 8 to 12 square metres. Why a 30 sqm minimum?

Because you are buying inventory, not a one-off tin. Most tradies spread a 30 sqm bundle across 2 to 3 small jobs, or one small commercial plus a bathroom or balcony. The leftover stock means you can quote the next non-slip job on the spot.

Why not just grab a non-slip tin from the hardware store?

Those tins are not matched to your surface, not CSIRO tested for AS 4586, and there is no tech line to call mid-job. If it fails, you own the redo and the reputation hit.

I have never done non-slip before. Can I handle this?

If you can roll paint and follow a plan, you can install this. The bundle is built for pros doing their first serious non-slip job, and the tech line is there while you work.

Will it change how the floor looks?

Stellmann clear systems are designed to keep the original look while adding wet grip. We confirm surface suitability with you before you order.

How long does it last?

The systems are engineered for multi-year performance with correct cleaning. Like any safety system, floors need scheduled cleaning and periodic re-testing, not set and forget. We give you the maintenance guidance to hand your client.

Do I need a licence or certification to install it?

No special licence is needed for the Starter Bundle. If you want training, leads and Wholesale Pricing later, ask about the Certified Installer Program.

What if something goes wrong on site?

That is exactly what the tech line is for. Call while you are on site, send photos, and we help you adjust before it becomes a problem. That is the Install Support Promise.

I don't do non-slip work now. Where do the jobs come from?

Mostly from work you already quote. Bathrooms, kitchens, balconies, ramps and entries all carry slip requirements, and clients ask about them once you raise it. The Trade Installer Pack includes the client scripts, and logged projects route re-coat and extension work on that site back to you.

I don't know anything about slip compliance. Is that a problem?

No. The standards map every room to a minimum P-rating, so there is nothing to guess. We match the rating and the kit for you, and the paperwork ships with it. The free pack teaches you enough to talk compliance with a client in 90 seconds.
