How Australia’s Top Councils, Schools & Public Venues Eliminated Slip Risk - Without Disruption

From council libraries to school playgrounds, Stellmann has helped facilities like the City of Melbourne, Queensland Government, TAFE NSW, and UNSW eliminate slip hazards - without needing to rip up floors or close public spaces.

In one venue project, a WHS inspector flagged slippery bathrooms at the John Cain Arena in Melbourne used daily by the public. Within 24 hours, a Stellmann Certified Installer was onsite - applying a clear, P4‑rated coating. By the next morning, the site was fully compliant, open to the public, and visually unchanged.

We’ve applied our CSIRO‑certified coatings across:

  • School corridors, classrooms & canteens
  • Library & community center floors
  • Council footpaths, walkways & ramps
  • Public transport platforms & entries
  • Sports Venues & Bathrooms

Whether you’re preparing for a compliance audit, responding to an incident, or fixing a failed slip test - we’ve already done it in environments just like yours.

A Failed Slip Test Can Cost More Than Funding

very council, school, or public facility has policies. But once someone slips, paperwork won’t protect you.

Slip incidents in public spaces and education settings are among the most reported WHS hazards in Australia. One incident can lead to:

❌ Injuries to students, staff, or visitors - from minor falls to serious harm
❌ Immediate WHS breach notices - forcing urgent remediation works
❌ Local Government or Department of Education investigations
❌ Insurance claims that drag on for months - raising premiums
❌ Public backlash and negative media coverage - damaging trust

And in many cases, the surface had already been flagged - but no compliant fix was applied.

🛑 Don’t wait for an incident to take action. Our CSIRO‑certified coatings are designed to help you pass audits - and protect people - before the paperwork begins.

One call. One coat. One pass.

FAQ

How long does the installation take? Will we need to shut down the area?

In most cases, there’s no shutdown required. Our certified installers schedule works during school holidays, weekends, or after‑hours to minimize disruption. The coating cures overnight - meaning your classrooms, walkways, or public spaces can be back in use by morning. That’s why we’re trusted by councils, transport networks, and education providers with high‑traffic environments.

What kind of floors can your non-slip coating be applied to?

We apply our coating to vinyl, lino, ceramic tiles, natural stone, concrete, and more. If your surface is found in a school, council facility, transport hub, or public venue, we’ve almost certainly treated it before.

Our free compliance walkthrough includes surface testing to confirm compatibility - and we can apply an onsite sample patch so you can see the finish before committing.

Does it actually help us pass a slip test?

Yes. Stellmann coatings are CSIRO‑tested and certified to AS 4586/4663 standards - the same standards referenced in WHS inspections and Department of Education safety guidelines.

We guarantee a passing slip rating upon installation. As part of your free compliance walk through, we can apply a test patch in a high‑risk zone and provide a fixed quote before you commit.

* Terms & Conditions apply

How long does the coating last in high‑traffic public spaces?

Most non‑slip treatments on the market only last 3–6 months before performance drops below compliance. Stellmann’s CSIRO‑certified coating delivers, on average, 2–4 years of durable, P‑rated protection - even in school corridors, council walkways, transport platforms, and other high‑traffic public spaces.

That’s 4x to 8x the lifespan of typical treatments - without the surface damage, rework, or re‑tests. We also offer maintenance plans and scheduled reapplication to keep you audit‑ready all year with zero disruption.

What’s the cost of getting this installed?

Costs vary depending on surface size, current slip rating, and site layout. That’s why we offer a free compliance walkthrough, which includes a fixed quote and a tailored WHS compliance strategy for your school, council facility, or public venue.

No surprises. No pressure. Just a clear plan to get you audit‑ready and keep your community safe.

Can this be used as part of a WHS audit, safety inspection, or funding application?

Absolutely. Stellmann coatings are CSIRO‑certified to AS 4586/4663 slip‑resistance standards, which are recognized standards in WHS legislation, Department of Education safety frameworks, and local government compliance requirements.

We can provide slip test reports, certification documents, and maintenance schedules to support WHS audits, safety inspections, and even grant or funding applications for safety upgrades.

Do you work during school holidays, weekends, or after hours?

Yes - our certified Installers regularly schedule installations during school holiday periods, weekends, and after‑hours to avoid disrupting classes, public events, or daily operations.

For councils and public venues, we can coordinate around event schedules, library hours, or transport timetables to ensure the space stays accessible when it matters most.

Our overnight‑cure system means the area is safe, compliant, and ready for use by the next day.
