Dr Schutz releases anti-slip sealer

Dr. Schutz, the German floor care company, is offering the care industry a revolutionary sealer – PU Antislip. Applied to resilient care home floors, PU Antislip offers long term protection, and most importantly, slip prevention to comply with current European legislation.

Health and safety in care homes is of paramount importance and slip-related incidents represent an increasingly high percentage of work and home accidents.
