Following the acquisition by extreme cleaning specialist CleanSafe Services (UK) Ltd of the floor treatment arm of Bonasystems Europe, CleanSafe has announced to spend US$339445.50 over the next two years to develop the floor product application service and promote the safety benefits of Bonasystems Grip
A campaign is being launched to remind businesses across major sectors including wet leisure, hospitality, retail, public transport and healthcare, of the urgent need to safeguard staff and customers by applying an anti-slip coating to high-risk floors.
There are more than 20,000 RIDDOR reported slip and trip incidents every year in the UK, costing employers an estimated US$680mn a year in management costs, legal bills, compensation and fines.
Steve Broughton, managing director at CleanSafe Services, said, “New sentencing guidelines have greatly increased potential fines for slip and trip incidents. This makes it more vital than ever before for businesses to reduce these risks and the associated costs.”
“Bonasystems Grip is the go-to product for supporting workforce and customer safety, demonstrating due diligence and reducing the risk of the potentially huge management and legal costs associated with slip and trip incidents,” Broughton added.
Bonasystems Grip aims to reduce the risk of slips and trips in a variety of high-risk environments including swimming pools and spas, hotels, transport hubs, shopping centres, schools and care homes.
CleanSafe Services, which specialises in emergency and specialist cleaning, will also provide a contract service for Bonasystems' other industry-leading surface treatment products for cleaning, maintaining, and sealing floors.
Steven Phillips, managing director at Bonasystems, noted, “By having CleanSafe Services working with us as our authorised application contractor, we can focus our energies on developing our innovative products, and marketing them to our growing number of end-use clients.”
