ABOUT QUEBEC SLIP SOLUTIONS
Quebec Slip Solutions was born out of the idea of wanting to bring the very best Anti-Slip products available to the Quebec marketplace. In partnering with Anti-Slip Anywhere we believe our slip resistance product offering can successfully resolve every slip/fall scenario either in the home or workplace.
While it is a fact, most hard surface floors, (whether ceramic, porcelain, quarry tile, granite, marble, travertine, limestone, concrete and other) will become slippery and high risk when they become wet. We do not believe placing unsightly carpets / mats or placing “slippery when wet” signs everywhere is a solution to slip and fall accidents as they continue to escalate exponentially every year. Resulting in lost productivity, loss of key personnel, low employee morale, increased litigation and skyrocketing insurance and workman compensation premiums.
Today, our ECO-FRIENDLY slip-resistant products offer a new, better way to make your residential, commercial or industrial surfaces non-slip and safe… wet or dry!
