The GreenTec Anti Slip GRP Decking Strips are designed for homeowners and professionals seeking to enhance safety on outdoor surfaces like decks, steps, and ramps. The key benefit is the significant reduction in slip and fall risks, especially in wet or icy conditions, thanks to their durable fibreglass reinforced plastic construction and aggressive anti-slip grit surface. A potential caveat is that their 1000mm length may require cutting for custom fits on certain applications. These strips offer a robust, weather-resistant solution for improving traction and durability in high-traffic outdoor areas.

They are manufactured from heavy-duty fibreglass reinforced plastic (GRP), which is known for its strength and durability.
Yes, the durable anti-slip grit surface is designed to provide excellent grip in wet and icy conditions, helping to reduce the risk of slips.
Installation is quick and easy using the included screws to fasten the strips to your decking, steps, or ramps.
Each strip measures 1000mm in length and 50mm in width, with an approximate thickness of 3mm.
While the material can be cut, it is recommended to use the full 1000mm length for optimal performance and safety. If cutting is necessary, ensure edges are finished cleanly.
These strips are designed and rated for outdoor use due to their weather-resistant properties. While they can be used indoors, their primary benefit is enhancing safety on outdoor surfaces prone to moisture and ice.
Clean the surface with a stiff brush and water to remove dirt and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the grit.
Ensure the grit surface is clean and free of mud, ice, or other contaminants. Heavy build-up can reduce effectiveness. For persistent issues, consider if the grit has worn down over extreme long-term use, which may indicate replacement is needed.
Check if the pilot holes are too large for the screws. If installing on very soft wood, the screws may not find sufficient purchase. Consider using slightly larger screws or wood filler/epoxy in the hole before re-inserting the screw. Ensure the surface itself is solid and not rotten.
Re-tighten all screws. If the surface material is soft or has degraded, the screws may not hold. Ensure you are using appropriate fixings for the substrate, and consider reinforcing the area if necessary.
Setup:
Compatibility:
These strips are designed for use on various outdoor surfaces including timber decking, composite decking, concrete steps, and wooden ramps. They are compatible with most common outdoor construction materials.
Care:
Regular cleaning with a stiff brush and water is recommended to remove dirt and debris that may accumulate on the grit surface. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools that could damage the grit. The GRP material is inherently resistant to corrosion and weathering, requiring minimal maintenance beyond basic cleaning.
