Application Situation
A long steel chequerplate access walkway located alongside the community college allowing access to two buildings.
Application Method

Belzona Facts
Even though chequerplate is known to have a pattern across its surface this had become polished and had become very slippery expecially when wet. The Belzona® 1821 grip system applied along the surface of the chequerplate provided added positive grip and safety for pedestrians.
