From Our Labs to Your Facility, Form-A-Tread® Offers Three Exceptional Anti Slip Products

Form-A-Tread anti slip products can be applied in nearly any manufacturing, commercial, or public area to help eliminate the risks associated with poorly maintained or designed stairways, ramps, walkways, and general working areas. Our slip resistant products make it easy to keep patrons safer without needing to install unsightly, expensive features.

Form-A-Tread® Original Anti Slip Products

Our original unique form-in-place, no-drip epoxy paste is designed to easily create custom and permanent treads on stairs, walkways, sloping surfaces, and any place where additional foot or vehicle traction are needed, including wet surfaces. Available in two color choices, Black and Safety Yellow, Form-A-Tread anti slip products can be used to create better visibility on steps and ramps or visible anti slip detectable warnings at curbs and drop offs. Designed to be used indoors or outdoors, it is exceptionally durable in areas exposed to chemicals, weather and temperature extremes. Because of its paste consistency, our non slip products can be applied on sloped and irregular surfaces and adheres to any common building surface with no priming required. If enhanced traction is needed, simply add one of two Tread Grit® choices during application.

Form-A-Tread® GLOW Non Slip Products

Form-A-Tread GLOW has the same no-drip, epoxy paste consistency as Form-A-Tread Original, but with a patented photoluminescence (glow-in-the-dark) and slip resistant formulation. This anti slip product is a single coat, fast-curing, photoluminescent, and slip resistant 100% epoxy formula designed to create permanent, non-slip, and luminous egress path markings on the horizontal leading edge of steps and landings. Form-A-Tread GLOW is compliant with the 2015 ICC IBC and 2014 NYC Construction Code BC 1024.4 and meets or exceeds the requirements of ASTM E 2072. It is intended for indoor use and can enhance safety and visibility on steps, landings, aisles, and risers in theaters and other entertainment venues after the house lights are dimmed. Additionally, Tread Grit CL (Clear) can be applied to GLOW to further enhance traction.

Form-A-Tread® SL (Self Leveling)

Form-A-Tread SL is a highly durable safety coating designed to provide a slip resistant (DCOF = 0.76) and attractive surface on walkways, ramps, floors, landings, vehicles, boats, and other large areas. This anti slip product is ideal for areas where a durable, non-slip surface or “safe area” demarcation is needed for pedestrian and vehicle traffic. The product is composed of two components: a liquid epoxy binder and specialized aggregates. Form-A-Tread SL is moisture-tolerant, extremely durable, and high strength, making it perfect for both interior and exterior high-traffic areas. Its easy-to-mix and apply formula comes in convenient packaging with a 1:1 ratio and low to medium viscosity. The aggregates are available in a variety of types, from soft rubber to extremely hard materials, and in numerous colors and blends, including Grey, Plaza Mix, Safety Yellow, and Heavy Duty, ensuring both functionality and aesthetic appeal for all non slip product needs.

Tread Grit®

Form-A-Tread Original and GLOW formulas contain slip resistant aggregate but we offer 3 specific, topically applied “Tread Grit” aggregates to customize the appearance, feel, and aggressiveness of the tread. Each variant has been tested to have excellent adhesions to Form-A-Tread if applied within 5 minutes after spreading.

Tread Grit® HD (Heavy Duty)

Tread Grit® BFF (Bare Foot Friendly)

Shake Tread Grit BFF on Form-A-Tread® immediately after spreading. Produces a Bare Foot Friendly, slip resistant surface, especially useful in wet locations.

Tread Grit® CL (Clear)

Transparent grit used to increase traction on GLOW and clear, colorless formulas. Shake Tread Grit Clear on Form-A-Tread immediately after spreading.

Form-A-Tread® Anti Slip Products Were Designed To Last

Actual customer installations prove Form-A-Tread anti slip products have a life expectancy 10X longer compared to traction tape and paint. Our first installation was in 2015 on the concrete steps of an office building entrance. It remains 100% intact today in spite of heavy foot traffic, harsh weather, direct sunlight and repeated heavy applications of ice melt! On average, anti slip tapes, treads and paints need to be replaced every 3 to 6 months. The savings from using Form-A-Tread is realized year after year.

Ten Years And Counting!

That’s how long our first installation has lasted without replacement—only minor upkeep and cleaning. We can reduce YOUR tripping and slipping hazards, now and for years to come!

Form-A-Tread Company, division of RGF Materials Company (LLC), is certified by the US Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) Center for Verification and Evaluation (CVE) as a Veteran Owned Small Business (VOSB).
