Safe staircases are a necessity; accessibility standards specified in building codes require the installation of 2 inches of slip-resistant color contrast at every step edge. Our code-compliant cast-in-place stair nosing for concrete can be installed in different colors, complying with all safety standards, including contrast requirements. This cast aluminum stair nosing for step edges is available in different sizes and can be applied to stairs with different depths and edge designs. The Ecoglo Step Edge Cast in Place Stair Nosing is engineered for durability and designed for step-edge safety, with its color-contrasting non-slip material providing excellent step-edge visibility. Our cast-in-place stair nosings for concrete stairs are for inside and outside, easy to clean, and wear-resistant.
Our stair nosing tactile indicators possess UV stability and are in compliance with the Canadian accessibility codes AODA, CSA, ISO, and provincial and national building codes.
Here are some of the features of stair nosing put into "wet" concrete:
Ecoglo Step Edge Cast in Place Stair Nosings, are a series of right angled aluminum step nosing’s to be placed into wet set concrete, fitting to the edge of public stairways, exit ways and other applications where pathfinding in darkness is an issue. The Non-Slip Anodized Stair Nosings provide step edge colour contrast, long lasting anti-slip protection and are an affordable way to modernize stairways to improve stairway safety. The Step Edge Cast in Place Stair Nosing’s are made of hard wearing silicon carbide non-slip material, bonded to an aluminum substrate, with a thick anodized finish so that they are aesthetically pleasing, prevent corrosion and are hard and abrasion resistant tested to withstand UV and all types of weather exposure. The Ecoglo Step Edge Cast in Place Stair Nosing’s, are engineered for durability and designed for step edge safety with their colour contrasting non-slip material providing excellent step edge visibility.
Ecoglo Photoluminescent Cast in Place Stair Nosings provides step edge visibility durability and are the most efficient photoluminescent product available. The Ecoglo Cast in Place Stair Nosing’s are installed into wet concrete and provide step edge visibility in all light conditions. The Photoluminescent stair nosing’s work just as well in the light as the dark to reduce falls and provide path marking enhancing egress speed. Ecoglo photoluminescent cast in place stair nosing’s are made of a hard-wearing silicon carbon non-slip material with unique ridges and advanced photoluminescnt technology, to provide step edge visibility and high durability against wear and tear for all-weather slip resistance. The Ecoglo Photoluminescent Stair Nosing’s are environmentally friendly making them the perfect solution for step edge safety.
The photoluminescent strip provides luminance on the step edge in event of a black out. The International Building Code requires photoluminescent path marking in all high rises. Our step edge products with Photoluminescent strips exceed the standards for performance in ULC572S, which requires that Photoluminescent path marking operate for a minimum of 120 minutes of black out.
