Frequently Asked Questions

Here you’ll find answers to commonly asked questions about our floor safety solutions, products, and services.

General

Safe Solution® is an invisible, non-coating, micro-tech application for hard mineral surfaces such as ceramic tile, cement, and steel enamelled bathtubs, designed to create an anti-slip surface. Safe Solution® creates invisible, microscopic channels that disperse oils and water from underfoot instead of the hydroplaning that usually occurs.

At first, you may notice a slight haze, which is normal. With time and regular use, the haze will eventually fade away, and the colour will remain the same.

The application will take approximately 10 minutes to complete, and you can use your bathtub or shower immediately.

Yes, if you use our follow-up Clean Step™ multi-purpose cleaner, we guarantee your bathtub or shower stall will remain Anti-Slip for at least three years.

Porcelain and Steel/Enameled tubs respond exceptionally well to Safe Solution® treatment. Fiberglass or acrylic tubs cannot be treated. Presently, Safe Solution® does not work on these types of surfaces, but we are actively developing a product that will.

Safe Solution® is safe and environmentally friendly. We make it safer by including a Neutralizer that converts the remaining residue into biodegradable and non-hazardous material.

Safe Solution® creates invisible, microscopic channels that disperse oils and water from underfoot, ensuring constant contact with the surface.

According to the Underwriters Laboratory (UL) and the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM), “A static anti-slip coefficient of .5 or above is considered a safe walkway surface.” A Safe Solution® treated surface is 0.6 – 0.8+

Safe Solution® may cause temporary whitening or efflorescence that will disappear quickly. A slight dulling effect can sometimes be seen, but a test area is always done before application to determine its impact on the surface.

Experience tells us that routine daily cleaning does not stop the eventual build-up of film and residue left over from cleaning products used. When this occurs, traction will be diminished, and your floor will require rejuvenation. Once this occurs, the floors will not be operating at maximum effectiveness. Most commercial applications average 1-3 years between rejuvenations.

Contracts, as they are generally used in the service industry, are voidable. This means that if what you are currently using doesn’t address a specific need, like providing and maintaining an anti-slip surface, it can’t be regarded as a breach of contract. These contracts benefit the provider and not the customer by “locking them in,” despite how they are usually presented. The Floor Safety Maintenance Program offers all the benefits of a contract with none of the obligations. Most contracts contain a simple 30-day notice of change.

Safe Solution® treated floors should be maintained like any other floor, using a good-quality PH-neutral, user-friendly heavy-duty strength cleaner, such as Clean Step™, that does not leave a residue. Our Clean Step™ is essential to any floor safety program and is designed to ensure maximum slip resistance. It is ideal for a Safe Solution® treated floor. “CLEANER IS SAFER.”
