In response to a major fast food outlet's problem of a slippery floor, with a rucked loose layed mat at the entrance areas, Colbourne set about designing the revolutionary Gripfit fixed aluminium frame system.
"Slips, trips and falls on flooring and matting are the most common accident hazard in public areas". Said Ben Colbourne. "They cost companies millions of pounds in litigation claims each year yet it's one of the easiest areas to rectify simpy by fixing matting securely in place in entrances and around high slip areas with our Gripfit system".
The hidden cost of inferior matting also includes deterring buggy and wheelchair users and the less able from entering areas where uneven entrance areas impede entry.
Gripfit is a low profile, aluminium, fixed matting system, that can be installed on any hard, level surface, to clamp mats from 5.5mm - 12.5mm in thickness securely in place. The system can be supplied as fixed lengths of profiles with a corner joins, and is easily removable using a bespoke tool, for laundering and maintenance.
Gripfit complies to BS8300 legislation, Disabled and Disability guidelines and the Health & Safety at Work Act (1974), and can easily be installed without the need to dig a disruptive or expensive mat well.
