Rail & Transport Specific Safety Challenges
From rail corridors to stations, depots, and maintenance facilities, public transport environments are exposed to conditions that can make conventional stair and access surfaces unsafe.
Common high-risk areas include:
- External stairways and platforms exposed to rain, dust, and temperature extremes
- Stations and concourses affected by moisture, spillages, and cleaning residues
- Elevated walkways, footbridges, and access stairs for infrastructure and maintenance
- High-traffic areas with limited shutdown windows for maintenance
Without effective slip-resistant surfaces, these areas present ongoing safety, operational, and compliance risks.
Slip Hazards in Rail Environments
Public transport operations require solutions that can withstand:
Mud, water, dust, and fine particulate build-up
Heavy use with steel-capped safety boots
Vibration from vehicles and mobile equipment
Abrasive and corrosive materials
Ageing infrastructure requiring retrofit upgrades
Limited shutdown windows for installation

ProGrit Railways & Transport FAQ's
Learn a bit more about why Staircare ProGrit’s products are the ideal solution for your anti-slip safety needs in your public transport or rail facilities.
Why is Staircare Progrit SPG a good FRP material choice for railway environments?
SPG Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) is ideal for rail applications because it is corrosion resistant, non-conductive, lightweight, and extremely durable. It performs well in harsh outdoor conditions commonly found in depots, rail corridors, and maintenance yards.
Where is FRP anti-slip flooring typically used in the rail industry?
Staircare Progrit SPG FRP anti-slip flooring is commonly installed in:
- Rail crossovers
- Train depots and stabling yards
- Maintenance walkways
- Service corridors
It provides long-term slip resistance in high-traffic and wet environments.
Do you supply FRP solutions for train station public access areas?
Yes. We supply Staircare Progrit SPG anti-slip FRP stair tread nosing and stair safety products suitable for public train station stairs, platforms, and pedestrian accessways where slip prevention and way guidance is critical.
Are FRP ladders safe to use around electrical rail infrastructure?
Absolutely. Staircare Progrit SPG custom made FRP access ladders are non-conductive, making them a safer choice for rail depots and areas near electrical systems, machine room access, substations, or signalling infrastructure.
What types of trench covers do you offer for rail corridors?
We provide heavy-duty FRP trench covers designed for installation within rail corridors and service routes. These covers are slip resistant, corrosion resistant, and suitable for demanding transport environments.
What are the benefits of FRP grating and platforms over steel?
Compared with steel, FRP offers:
- Superior corrosion resistance
- Reduced maintenance requirements
- Non-conductive safety properties
- Lightweight handling and installation
- High-grip anti-slip surfaces
This makes Staircare Progrit SPG FRP materials an excellent long-term solution for railway and transport facilities.
