All GripDeck products have surpassed both the wet and dry anti slip standards as set out by UK Slip Resistance Guidelines, described in the British Standards BS 7976 (part 1-3, 2002).
The Stanley Pendulum tests generate a co-efficient slip value used to rate anti slip products. A co-efficient of 65 out of 100 is required for any anti slip surface to be classed as having an extremely low risk of slip.

Anti Slip Decking – Slip Resistant Data
If you are using a standard size of decking, around 145mm, we would recommend you do not go to the expense of 3 anti slip strips in your decking, as the improvement in its slip resistance over 2 strips is marginal. Both 2 strips and 3 strips provide excellent anti slip resistance in both wet and dry conditions. However, if the direction of traffic is along the lengths of the timber, we would recommend 3 strips for added protection.
